Hokkaido, Bifuka, The World of Haruki Murakami

I visited the town that is rumored to have been the setting for one of Murakami Haruki's works in May and October four years ago! The lodging I stayed at was in a secluded area deep in the mountains, run by a warm-hearted couple. They also run a sheep farm, and in the evening they served delicious Genghis Khan, which was easy to eat.
