YUUNA - Yuna -

I want to visit Tokunoshima again!

Actually, about 17 years ago, I worked on Tokunoshima for three years and lived there with my family. So, I know a bit about the good things the island has to offer. However, this hotel is outstanding in terms of luxury on the island. It's an all-inclusive villa rental that reminds me of Hawaii or overseas. The great nature of Tokunoshima in summer that surrounds the accommodation is not inferior to overseas. But it feels a bit too outstanding, and I hope it will blend well with the island and the tourists who look at the island in the future. I'll visit again next summer. By the way, here's an episode. This time, all the rental cars were booked, and I finally found an old kei car at a stand in a corner of town. As expected? The battery was dead in the morning, and the engine wouldn't start. But I couldn't get in touch with the guy at the stand. So, I reluctantly contacted the hotel management. (There's no JAF...) Then, a local woman, who seemed to be a staff chief, answered and said, "We don't have a booster, but my father runs a repair shop." And unbelievably, her father showed up in a light truck in just one minute! The engine started in seconds! Moreover, when I asked about the fee, he said, "It's fine, because she's my daughter." It was so smart and cool that I almost cried. But for the islanders, this is normal. It's a small island with less than 10,000 people, but it embodies the spirit of "Yui," the tradition of Amami and Okinawa! Thank you very much!
