Discover the countryside of Japan in a series that takes you back to nature-to a place where dramatic hills, mountain valleys, thatched roof farmhouses and coastal boathouses are the backdrop to a scenic and authentic experience, in an all-new Life Inspired Original Series – Japan Authentic.
Set to premiere on Tuesday, 19th September at 10pm (MY/SIN/HK) with back to back episodes, this 2 part series will follow Erwan Heussaff – who is also a lifestyle video creator and culinary enthusiast, as he explores the road less travelled in cities such as Iiyama, Hida, Noto, Sasayama, Ine and Tanabe, where local produce are at its freshest and the people are most welcoming.
In the series, Erwan meets up with some locals along the way to truly experience a side of Japan not many may know off.
From activities like jungle trekking through the Shin-etsu Forest, mountain boarding at Madarao Kogen Ski Resort, experiencing a Kiriko Festival or tasting the fresh local produce straight from the farm, the series aims to open a different chapter from the book of Japan.
