“明码标价”是现代零售的通行规则，我们每天都在根据价格标签上的数字，做出各种各样的消费决策。所见即所得，但并不一定等于所付——不同国家和地区针对消费附加的税种要求，会巧妙地影响你的最终账单。目前在中国，几乎所有的消费品价格中都包含了“增值税”，后者被誉为二十世纪最伟大的财政发明之一。美国并未采用增值税模式，而是由各州和各地区自行划定消费税，这进一步加剧了连锁企业、以及消费者心算的难度。日本则是在多次提升消费税后，形成了如今“同时标注两种价格”的局面。为什么所有人都要接触的税，会在价格标签上分化出完全不同的思路？以及，你知道你的日常消费中，包含多少税吗？本期节目，我们就从现象出发，简单讨论一下消费中的税。| 主播 |肖文杰、约小亚| 时间轴 |00:57 奥乐齐节目的“特别售后”03:40 1分钟回顾分税制改革11:30 美国为什么没有增值税？14:00 消费品的税率是如何确定的？18:58 日本消费税上涨如何影响售货机生意26:08 “价内税”vs“价外税”35:30 把价外税标在价内，一个历史遗留问题| 延伸资料 |Reddit-Is it true that in the U.S your stores don't display the full price of an item including tax?《以利为利》《中华人民共和国增值税暂行条例》（1993年11月26日通过）1994年前后的中国财税体制改革知乎-为什么说增值税是由消费者承担的？The Indicator from Planet Money-The spat over VAT华尔街见闻-《增值税下调将如何影响各行各业？》野村东方国际证券-《日本经济下行期系列研究：平成消费史》US State and Local Sales Tax Rates, 2024日本财务省-消費税における「総額表示方式」の概要AP-Trader Joe's upped the price of its bananas for the first time in decades.

Donald Trump's return to the White House has the hotel industry hopeful for policies like tax cuts and expanded worker visas to boost business, as the expiration of key tax provisions could lead to a 33% increase in taxes. Meanwhile, TikTok will remain accessible in the U.S. after Trump extended the deadline for ByteDance to find a buyer, preventing a federal ban that could have disrupted travel marketing for major brands like Expedia and Disney Parks. Additionally, online travel agency Agoda has launched a Sustainable Tourism Impact Fund to support small businesses in Southeast Asia with low-interest loans to promote eco-friendly practices.

Planning on taking a cruise to/around Italy? Not sure what that entails? Struggling to see how it's possible given the fact many of the towns are land-locked? After Darcy talked to her mom about an upcoming trip to Italy, we were inspired to do a little digging into cruises to, from, and around Italy. Some are massive cruise ships with multi-port journeys, water slides, and endless buffets others are, in fact, ferries with an unassuming bar and restaurant that get you from point A to B. In this episode we get into the pros and cons of it all plus touch on what the environmental impacts of various transportation might be. If you're planning on going to Rome in 2025, we highly recommend booking your hotels (and potentially even your flights) as soon as possible. If you'd like to help out Only A Bag, you can use our affiliate links marked with an asterisk. For hotels, we tend to use Booking* since we're already a part of their member program, but Expedia* also has a robust member program with similar prices on hotel rooms. For an aggregate that seems to offer slightly better deals across the board, we recommend checking out Agoda*. And if you've always loved the idea of staying in Italy for an extended period and becoming part of the culture, we can't recommend housesitting enough. While it does often entail taking care of someone's pet, it can also be a gateway to seeing Italy in a totally new way. We use Trusted Housesitters* which has a fairly steep upfront cost (a few hundred dollars) but that's covered with a few nights of a house sit which should never cost you money. Lastly, if you're already looking to book flights, we like to use the airline's website, however, some aggregates do offer better deals, so we always recommend checking Expedia* or Booking* before purchasing.

Jeremy Au and Gita Sjahrir discussed three key themes during their conversation: 1. Apple's $1 Billion Investment in Indonesia and Local Content Policies: Indonesia's regulation requiring local components in imported products initially banned iPhone 16 sales, sparking public frustration. The government negotiated with Apple, escalating from a $10 million offer to a $1 billion investment. Gita highlighted President Prabowo Subianto's role in global diplomacy, marking a shift from Indonesia's traditionally insular policies. They also explored the broader context of deglobalization, where nations prioritize domestic production, and discussed how similar strategies could be applied in other markets like Vietnam. 2. Traveloka and the Middle-Class Economy: Traveloka, founded in 2012 by Ferry Unardi, Derianto Kusuma, and Albert Zhang, represents a scalable digital-first platform in Indonesia. Despite this potential, economic insecurity among the middle class limits its growth. Indonesia's GDP grew 5% in 2023, but discretionary spending remains low due to middle-class vulnerability. Traveloka also faces competition from Agoda, part of Booking Holdings, and new entrants from China. Jeremy and Gita stressed that stabilizing the middle class is crucial not just for Traveloka but for consumer-driven industries across the region. 3. Cultural Barriers and Financial Literacy in Startups: Gita discussed how Indonesia's “shame culture” prevents founders from addressing their weaknesses, particularly in financial literacy. She noted that one in three founders struggles with basics like distinguishing GMV, revenue, and contribution margins, which often leads to poor decision-making. Jeremy and Gita emphasized the importance of personal growth to overcome these challenges, encouraging founders to “do it scared” and take action despite fear. Jeremy and Gita also discussed the challenges of navigating the “messy middle” in startups, often spanning over a decade; lessons from the 2014–2015 tech boom, which highlighted the risks of overfunding and rapid scaling; the transition from physical to digital industries, with Indonesia's digital economy growing 16% in 2023; Prabowo Subianto's efforts to position Indonesia as a neutral geopolitical player; and how founders can reassess their long-term priorities and time investments in startups. === Watch, listen or read the full insight at www.bravesea.com/blog/ indonesia-apple-1b-deal Nonton, dengar atau baca wawasan lengkapnya di www.bravesea.com/blog/ indonesia-apple-1b-deal 观看、收听或阅读全文，请访问 www.bravesea.com/blog/ indonesia-apple-1b-deal Xem, nghe hoặc đọc toàn bộ thông tin chi tiết tại www.bravesea.com/blog/ indonesia-apple-1b-deal Get transcripts, startup resources & community discussions at www.bravesea.com WhatsApp: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VakR55X6BIElUEvkN02e TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jeremyau Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeremyauz Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeremyau LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/bravesea Spotify English: https://open.spotify.com/show/4TnqkaWpTT181lMA8xNu0T Bahasa Indonesia: https://open.spotify.com/show/2Vs8t6qPo0eFb4o6zOmiVZ Chinese: https://open.spotify.com/show/20AGbzHhzFDWyRTbHTVDJR Vietnamese: https://open.spotify.com/show/0yqd3Jj0I19NhN0h8lWrK1 YouTube English: https://www.youtube.com/@JeremyAu?sub_confirmation=1 Apple Podcast English: https://podcasts.apple.com/sg/podcast/brave-southeast-asia-tech-singapore-indonesia-vietnam/id1506890464 Learn more about Nika.eco!

Which Christmas market is the most popular? Which is the oldest? We'll answer those questions and more in this episode! Edit, and this is a big one: In this episode Darcy is super excited about the "biggest Christmas tree in the world." Upon further fact checking, it is not in fact a living tree, but Christmas lights arranged along the side of Mount Ingino in the shape of a Christmas tree. We do our best to deliver only accurate information, but sometimes things slip through the cracks, like "the biggest Christmas tree in the world." We also do our best to tell you when we're wrong and we appreciate your understanding. That said, there is tons more in the episode that is correct, so we hope you give it a listen! With the Jubilee coming up we highly recommend booking hotels in Rome as soon as possible, if you're planning on visiting in 2025. If you're visiting other parts of Italy in the coming year and want to know when to book hotels and flights, check out our episode When to Book: Hotels and Flights and even When to Book: Trains and Buses.

In this episode, we teach you how to order coffee in Italy like a natural. Some of you might see that this is a quasi-repeat of a previous episode. Part of that is due to us learning more about the coffee culture in Italy, and part of that is due to us watching Lidia Poet on Netflix and wondering why they were drinking tea. So in this episode we delve into the history of coffee in Italy, and teach you how to order your favorite drinks.

Don't wear a weeding ring, don't take out your phone, cover up any expensive labels. There are countless tips out there to avoid looking like a target, so is getting pickpocketed a real fear? Likewise, what are some scams you might run into while traveling in Italy? And is it safe to walk around at night? In this episode, we talk about crime, safety, and everything around it. If you're planning on going to Rome in 2025, we highly recommend booking your hotels (and potentially even your flights) as soon as possible. If you'd like to help out Only A Bag, you can use our affiliate links marked with an asterisk. For hotels, we tend to use Booking* since we're already a part of their member program, but Expedia* also has a robust member program with similar prices on hotel rooms. For an aggregate that seems to offer slightly better deals across the board, we recommend checking out Agoda*. And if you've always loved the idea of staying in Italy for an extended period and becoming part of the culture, we can't recommend housesitting enough. While it does often entail taking care of someone's pet, it can also be a gateway to seeing Italy in a totally new way. We use Trusted Housesitters* which has a fairly steep upfront cost (a few hundred dollars) but that's covered with a few nights of a house sit which should never cost you money. It's free to make an account and look through ads, but you have to pay to send a message. Lastly, if you're already looking to book flights, we like to use the airline's website, however, some aggregates do offer better deals, so we always recommend checking Expedia* or Booking* before purchasing.

The cost of the transportation system is rising, and they're thinking about instituting a small charge to see the Trevi Fountain. But it's not all bad! If you want to walk to Rome, they're also pouring money into the Via Francigena to make it easier for pilgrims to make their way along the Canterbury-Rome road. And if you want to take part in the festivities, we have you covered! Here's a link to the Vatican Website where you can go ahead and get your Pilgrim Card!

Did you know? The Rome Jubilee is based on Jewish tradition. The Holy Door is walled up and must be broken down so that the Pope can unlock it with a hidden key. Your sins can be absolved (according to the Catholic church)! In this episode we get into the history and details of the Rome Jubilee. Plus, go check out our previous episode for all of the modern-day practicalities of visiting Rome during the Jubilee, just as many fun facts but in the 21st century not the 14th.

While it's taken a long time to come to fruition, it looks like the EU is set to rollout their new visa scheme in the first half of 2025. So, what does this mean as a non-European? Do Americans (if you are American) now need a visa to go to Italy? And what about this raised tourist tax we keep hearing so much about? Do you actually have to pay 25 euros a night in addition to a hotel room? In this episode, we hope to inform you and assuage those fears about what 2025 will look like for travelers. Until then, if you're planning a trip to Italy and you'd like to help out Only A Bag (read: Darcy and Nathaniel), you can do so by booking your hotel or train trip through our affiliate links. *Links with an asterisk are affiliate links. By using our affiliate link to book hotels you help our podcast! We get a kickback from the company and you will not be charged extra.

In recent years, the flight has somehow become the worst part of any trip. It's not just the delays and cancellations, but the baggage fees, the seat selection fees if you'd like to do something crazy like sit next to the people you're traveling with, and even the tiny, narrow seats. In this episode (and the next one) we delve into how to prepare for a flight and how to maximize (or minimize) your time in an airport. Because we completely forgot, we also briefly touch on using your credit card travel portal (like Capital One Travel or Chase Travel) to book a flight since they have baked-in protection like price-drop protection and lost baggage reimbursement. You don't need a travel credit card to use these platforms, we use basic, no foreign-transaction fee credit cards like the Savor One and Quicksilver (both are referral links). As we mention in this episode (and the next) something that we've found to be priceless is a power bank. Even though we don't put our boarding passes on our phones, having our phone die while in the midst of a trip can be disastrous. If you'd like to support Only A Bag, you can use our affiliate link for Belkin. However, pretty much any power bank will work! Lastly, as we mentioned in the previous episodes, we rarely book flights through an aggregate, preferring to use the airline's website or our credit card's travel portal. When looking for hotels, we usually cross-reference Booking*, Expedia*, Priceline, and Agoda*. (Affiliate links are marked with an asterisk.) We typically book with Booking.com* because we like their “Genius” deals and it seems like they often have the best or comparable prices. While Booking, Expedia, and Priceline do offer flight booking we usually use Google Flights or ITA Flight Matrix (also by Google) to find the price-range and then book the flight directly through the carrier or credit card portal.

Picking up where we left off, this episode gets into the meat of the matter—the flight itself. Boiled down, it can be summed up as: moisturize, bring noise-cancelling headphones, moisturize, bring a change of clothes, and make sure your skin stays hydrated and moisturized. We also talk about finding the perfect seat on any airplane. To do this, we use SeatGuru. It's often easier to simply search on Google the carrier and plane type, such as "Air France Boeing 777 SeatGuru" and it will direct you to the search result page you need. For noise-cancelling headphones, the world is your oyster. We've found that a pair of $50 headphones works just fine, but you might want to try out something a little more powerful if you fly frequently. *Links with an asterisk are affiliate links.

1.紀錄一下此行在東京最後一晚的住宿。2021年8月開業，我在2022年8月住過他御徒町的分店，留下深刻印象。這次再度入住。 上野曼迪尊貴公寓酒店 (MONday Apart Premium UENO) https://reurl.cc/lglj6j 2.我撐到兩天前訂的，和我上次入住理由一樣，我想找一間相對大間的房間方便整理行李（大家應該有看到他們從輕井澤搞了大袋小袋的回來吧）。結果我找到兩間30平米有上下舖的房間，我們家兩大兩中行李攤平在地上整理都沒問題。一人一晚約一萬日幣，我和姊姊兩家人，一間住四人，一間住三人，共七萬多日幣。在Agoda訂的，同樣條件比官網便宜。我又被Agoda救了一次！ 3.五十吋互動電視，還有迷你廚房和洗衣機。甚至還有BALMUDA烤土司神器！因此一行人晚上去多慶屋樓下超市買了東西回來吃吃喝喝，早餐烤土司來吃。狸貴妃特地還在樓上大創買了便宜的提袋還有壓縮袋，準備回旅館施展打包小天使的真功夫。 4.晚上徵求誰要走去上野車站吃一蘭拉麵？姐姐一家人長年住香港但從來沒吃過一蘭，當然久仰其名，所以我就帶她們去啦。（我們家三隻狸則是整完行李後暴睡）深夜0AM的一蘭，不用排隊，還是記憶中的味道，姐姐和外甥女都很滿意。走過去大概10分鐘吧。 5.樓下不遠一邊SEVEN一邊LAWSON，很方便。大廳不大，但check out後當天允許寄放行李，這沒問題。所以我們最後一天是上野逛完後，回來集合推行李去京成上野。走到三井花園上野前坐電梯下去地下道，一路走到京成，新手需要先研究一下動線。走到電梯13分鐘，走到京成上野再8分鐘。沒有想像中遠。 6.除了離車站有點遠，我沒有什麼好嫌的。他位在日比谷線上野站和入谷站之間，差不多在正中間，要走有點久。往上野走大概三個block會經過Mimaru東京上野東，這間位置就好多了。但我想應該價位就會高滿多的吧。 https://reurl.cc/zl7XM0 歡迎追蹤林氏璧孔醫師的發聲管道，了解最新的日本旅遊訊息！ 我的電子名片 https://lit.link/linshibi 日本優惠券大平台和近期活動資訊 https://linshibi.com/?p=20443 日本藥妝店優惠券大集合 https://linshibi.com/?p=27381 歡迎贊助04b喝咖啡 https://pay.firstory.me/user/linshibi

OMO5 沖繩那霸 by 星野集團 官網：https://hoshinoresorts.com/zh_tw/hotels/omo5okinawanaha/ AGODA https://reurl.cc/4WKW9K 沖繩縣那霸市松山1-3-16 1.OMO5 沖繩那霸 by 星野集團2021年5月開幕，樓高16層，有190間客房。位於APA Hotel旁，樓下就是SEVEN。單軌電車Yui-Rail 「縣廳前」站步行約 6 分，從「美榮橋」站步行約 8 分。 徒步兩分就到了琉球巴士「沖繩時報前」巴士站。走到國際通約需要15分鐘。星野集團在沖繩縣本島還有虹夕諾雅沖繩、BEB5沖繩瀨良垣 兩個設施。 2.YAGURA Room和雙床房的抉擇：這次來採訪OMO5沖繩那霸，原本是要和小狸一起來的，但她臨時有事，所以我縮短行程一個人成行。旅館這邊安排了兩個房型，下午把兩間都給我看，問我說想住哪一間？這讓我猶豫了五秒，但很快就決定了。我想重溫去年夏天在東京大塚住過快一週，上層床鋪，下層沙發的 YAGURA Room！如果是和小狸來，可能還會猶豫想選雙床房，空間可能比較寬敞，也不用上上下下的。 YAGURA Room會常常不小心撞到頭＠@ 但既然只有我一人，我個人是還滿喜歡這個房型的，我常常直接就睡在下面的沙發上了。特別是這會讓我想起去年那個待在東京40天的夏天！那是台日旅遊還沒有開放之前，很特別的一段回憶。另一個原因， YAGURA Room有浴缸可以泡澡，但雙床房僅有淋浴！大小的話，前者是20平米，可住1~3人。後者是19.1平米，可住1~2人。目前全日本已經有了高達15間OMO系列的旅館了，但有YAGURA Room的只有東京大塚，熊本和沖繩那霸這三間OMO5喔。 3.進入飯店是挑高2層樓的OMO Base，是住客可以使用的空間。一樓有Go-KINJO Map周邊地圖，介紹周邊的好去處。我們照上面推薦去吃了隔壁的「沖繩料理食事處MIKADO」（お食事処みかど）吃沖繩傳統家庭料理，包括了沖繩強棒飯 （ちゃんぽん），沖繩什錦炒，炒苦瓜，沖繩麵等等，我非常喜歡！據說沖繩強棒飯這樣的吃法就是這間店發明的喔。 https://tabelog.com/okinawa/A4701/A470101/47000095/ 4.一樓的OMO CAFE早上提供簡單的早餐（五種主餐盤可替換：火腿起司三明治、法式土司、披薩吐司等 ），早餐後有提供熱帶水果百匯與芒果黑糖布丁等甜點和飲料，晚上營業到12點（11：３０ＰＭ最後點餐）2樓還有Yuntaku閱覽室，coin locker和洗衣的地方。置物櫃是自助式的，可免費使用，最多可以寄放72小時。 5.OMO系列旅館的周邊嚮導OMO Ranger散步導覽活動是極大特色。我參加了4PM的裏國際通散步。還有有料的8:30AM超市嚮導活動。我特別喜歡介紹沖繩當地的超市，介紹了很多沖繩當地才有的東西，很有趣！我們去的是24小時營業的Union 超市！沖繩約有20間分店，很可惜的這個在美榮橋附近的分店只營業到明年初。工作人員也是今天才看到要結束營業的告示，不知道之後這樣的活動會帶去哪一間超市？參加這個行程就送OMO環保購物袋喔！這個是OMO5沖繩那霸自己做的，目前只會給參加活動的客人，他們有在考慮要不要放在賣店。 沖繩住宿｜OMO5 沖繩那霸 by 星野集團：超棒日式閣樓房，星野集團第一間沖繩OMO都市觀光飯店 https://tiyama.tw/omo5okinawanaha/ 歡迎追蹤林氏璧孔醫師的發聲管道，了解最新的日本旅遊訊息！ 我的電子名片 https://lit.link/linshibi 日本優惠券大平台和近期活動資訊 https://linshibi.com/?p=20443 日本藥妝店優惠券大集合 https://linshibi.com/?p=27381 歡迎贊助04b喝咖啡 https://pay.firstory.me/user/linshibi
Raffy Montemayor, Founder & Philippine Business Head of Salmon, and Jeremy Au discussed three main topics: 1. Country General Manager Learnings: Raffy talked about how his unintentional early experience at Nestle turned out to be pivotal in learning about sales, HSBC for marketing and his experience as an INSEAD MBA. He then went on to lead the Philippines market for Agoda (travel aggregator), OLX Group (global classifieds) and Carousell (regional classifieds unicorn). He shared his learnings on how to best operate as a country General Manager: embrace direct involvement in operations due to the absence of established processes, flexible strategy localized to the actual market, and effective stakeholder management by crafting strong business cases. 2. Classifieds Insights: Raffy explained the classifieds business model: building a user-driven content flywheel to generate organic traffic and achieve market leadership. He discussed the strategic choice and trade-offs between a profitable, smaller-scale operation focused on B2C segments like used car dealerships and real estate companies vs. a broader C2C focus which requires significant marketing investments without immediate revenue generation. He also discussed why and how Facebook is such a strong competitor and substitute. 3. Fintech Founder for the Philippines: Raffy expressed his deep connection to the Philippines, not just emotionally but also in terms of the business opportunities shaped by demographics, income levels, and digital trends. He shares his excitement for the Philippines' underbanked market and why he co-founded Salmon to build financial inclusion, craft a customer-centric experience and utilize technology to build a profitable consumer lending engine. They also talked about professional burnout, becoming a father and experiencing the twists-and-turns of a professional tech career.

日本樂天訂房網站連結整理，可訂民宿，溫泉到中高級旅館 https://linshibi.com/?p=1450 樂天日文 https://reurl.cc/K3Y07m 樂天Rakuten Travel中文 https://reurl.cc/m0QzOj Agoda https://reurl.cc/x6MXg5 1.上次投票中，Rakuten Travel日文網很多朋友愛用，但樂天中文網使用的人出期的少，引起我的好奇，於是我用2月20日兩人入住品川王子主塔雙床房（6-16層）的條件來查價一下。同樣都是90天以上的早鳥優惠，但中文網要26880yen，日文網則是20554yen。 2.中文網的方案比較少，日文網方案很多令人眼花繚亂。 3.在月曆模式的時候日文網會秀出每天的價錢很方便選擇，中文網則要點進去一一查價比較麻煩。 4.中文網似乎只取了部分的評分還有評價，但日文的評價還是保持日文狀態沒有翻譯。評語分別是1216則和16617則。 5.我用Google Maps查價，結果這天最便宜的是agoda 17849yen，好像正在特價的樣子。而且和樂天早鳥一樣，入住兩天前都可以免費取消。日文官網則是18986yen。 更正：Agoda點進去結帳變21504yen，不是最便宜的了。為什麼比價網站沒辦法抓到這種行為？ 以上和大家分享！也歡迎你補充心得喔！ 歡迎追蹤林氏璧孔醫師的發聲管道，了解最新的日本旅遊訊息！ 我的電子名片 https://lit.link/linshibi 日本優惠券大平台和近期活動資訊 https://linshibi.com/?p=20443 日本藥妝店優惠券大集合 https://linshibi.com/?p=27381 歡迎贊助04b喝咖啡 https://pay.firstory.me/user/linshibi

部落格圖文版 https://linshibi.com/?p=44062 1.前幾天一位讀者傳訊告訴我說，他剛剛在Booking.com訂了四國的旅館，在Booking.com和旅館的對話框都確定細節了，突然從同一個對話框收到訊息說付款認證出了問題，要求你從一個網址（網址中還有Booking呢）確認你的付費方式，否則24小時內會被取消訂房。他很有警覺性覺得應該是詐騙，後來一小時內旅館就發現了，發信給所有訂房的人警告此事。 2.我查了一下，這樣的詐騙手法在台灣至少從今年二月就有被提到，後來有許多案例發生，九月還上過新聞。這個資料外洩是發生在飯店端，駭客取得飯店帳號進訂房平台和客戶通訊。有網友稱呼這是近期最強的信用卡詐騙，因為他就是從APP裡面直接以旅館的名義發訊給你，許多旅客不疑有他，怕被取消就這樣受騙了。 3.業者Booking.com當時發布聲明表示，近來網路犯罪者針對合作夥伴的攻擊有所增加，這並非單獨針對Booking.com的事件，而是大多數電子商務平台都會面臨的問題。Booking表示網站本身並沒有受到任何駭客入侵的情形，但部分旅宿合作夥伴方受到釣魚郵件的攻擊，而影響部分消費者。 4.目前看來有狀況的是Booking最多，其他網站也有發生。TVBS九月底的報導，根據刑事局165統計，從2023年初至今，旅遊網站遭詐騙通報以及諮詢件數，Booking已超過百件，Agoda也有30件，Trivago跟雄獅則各有20件。但其他網站的詐騙型態是否也是類似的，我就不確定了。如果大家有經驗也歡迎留言分享。 5.正好 Joel來談日本 前輩今天也提到日本媒體報導：據了解，世界上最大的住宿預訂網站「Booking.com」的系統被濫用，導致日本國內的酒店等住宿設施的電腦終端遭到駭客攻擊，從今年5月以來，接連發生預訂客戶的信用卡資訊被盜用。至少有68個設施公開了這一被害情況，位在荷蘭的總公司也證實這件事，從去年11月就在歐洲出現，現在已經擴散到全球範圍，被害金額以及件數還未估算出來。 總之，現在詐騙手法層出不窮，請大家務必小心任何需要點進連結確認信用卡的狀況，都可能是詐騙！ 日本訂房/比價網站懶人包 https://linshibi.com/?p=1493 東京住宿懶人包：如何在東京找到一家好旅館？日文網站訂房須知 https://linshibi.com/?p=1735 歡迎追蹤林氏璧孔醫師的發聲管道，了解最新的日本旅遊訊息！ 我的電子名片 https://lit.link/linshibi 日本優惠券大平台和近期活動資訊 https://linshibi.com/?p=20443 日本藥妝店優惠券大集合 https://linshibi.com/?p=27381 歡迎贊助04b喝咖啡 https://pay.firstory.me/user/linshibi

7月31日才新開幕的OMO3淺草，很多朋友有興趣。很快的來整理一下，以免我忘記。 OMO3 Asakusa by Hoshino Resorts（OMO3浅草 by 星野リゾート） 官網：https://hoshinoresorts.com/ja/hotels/omo3asakusa/ Agoda：https://reurl.cc/eDr8Dm 1.位於13樓的OMO Base對愛看風景的朋友，可以是入住這個旅館的一切理由。 一面是看淺草寺，一面是看東京晴空塔的絕佳位置！這裡24小時開放，有自助付費提供各種飲料和輕食的Food and drink Station。還可以更上一層樓到14樓的Rooftop Terrace，也是24小時開放的露天展望台！ 2.這旅館位置就在二天門外，走過去到淺草寺本堂差不多一分鐘！這應該就是他最大的優勢。我最推薦的時間是清晨和夜晚，沒有這麼多遊客的淺草寺。 3.交通方面可能就稍微離站遠一點，大概就是從雷門走到淺草寺本堂前的寶藏門那樣的距離。 東京metro銀座線淺草站7番出口 徒歩約4分 都營淺草線淺草站 A5番出口 徒歩約6分 東武淺草站北口 徒步約2分 筑波快線淺草站 徒歩約9分 最常利用的應該是銀座線，走回來的路上會遇到一蘭拉麵，星巴克，宇奈多多鰻魚飯，松屋。當然在淺草仲見世通東邊那一區域也有很多餐廳可選擇。 這裡是東武鐵道往日光、鬼怒川的起點，東武到晴空塔也只要一站喔。我最後一天早上是走Sumida River Walk散步過去，然後從東京晴空塔站坐車回來。 值得一提的是機場交通雖然從淺草線可以直通運轉羽田成田兩個機場，但帶著行李的話淺草線有電梯的出口A2b就離得比較遠了，大概要走個9分鐘吧。 4.和去年底我住的淺草六區相比較，淺草六區的生活機能明顯勝出，有驚安殿堂，有多個超市，交通也多了一個筑波快線可以利用。但當然從OMO3這裡也可以穿過淺草寺過去逛就是了。 5.房型方面，我這次訂的是最多間最小的房型やぐらルーム，15平米，下鋪是張小雙人床，上鋪是可以休憩的地方（和大塚的類似房型上下舖相反）。窗戶是沒有辦法打開的，沒有窗景，房內也沒有浴缸只有淋浴。 另外雙床房TWIN有18和33平米兩種，應該就都有窗景。以官網的圖看來前者可能是面向晴空塔，後者是面向淺草寺，且有浴缸。 6.這間旅館沒有餐廳，他的早餐就是在Food and drink Station吃，早餐時段會有提供飯糰，麵包等等。很多都是淺草當地的店家，另外也有看到OMO自己做的三明治。訂房有附餐券的方案（Food & Drink Station 1000円チケット付），據說可以省500yen。（大塚是OMO5，有自己的餐廳，早餐是現做滿精緻的） 7.既然是OMO，最大的特色是員工會帶你深入的認識當地。4PM在OMO base會簡單的介紹淺草的歷史還有美食文化，這不用報名即可參加。每逢星期五六晚上會有落語。最熱門的是每天早上5:55AM集合帶你去淺草寺散步的行程，大概一個小時，約7AM在雷門前解散。理論上說要在前一天10PM前報名，我當天是2點多check in的，然後就忙著照房間忘記這件事，猶豫了一下結果在3點報名就額滿了！因為他只有10個名額。建議想參加的朋友，入住的第一件事，一定要報名。不過我隔天早上還是厚臉皮的路過去旁聽了，哈哈！他全程是日文，懂日文的朋友，我很建議參加！ 8.館內著要另外付費（大塚也是這樣），不能借傘，只能用買的，1100yen。一樓有些簡單的OMO相關周邊，一樣也是可以自助結帳。 說個結論，光光她從13~14樓鳥瞰淺草寺這個窗景我覺得就值得來住一次了。但如果說週邊生活機能或是交通的方便性，可能離車站更近一些的選擇會更好喔。比方說我去年有住過的淺草東武，或是淺草六區的Richmond。 歡迎追蹤林氏璧孔醫師的發聲管道，了解最新的日本旅遊訊息！ 我的電子名片 https://lit.link/linshibi 日本優惠券大平台和近期活動資訊 https://linshibi.com/?p=20443 歡迎贊助04b喝咖啡 https://pay.firstory.me/user/linshibi

沖繩阿利比拉日航，雖然開業於已經快要30年的1994年，但維護的很好，且由於整體是西班牙紅瓦白牆風格的建築，不會覺得很陳舊，反而有股神秘的氛圍。在旅館中可說處處皆是取景好角度，不管是庭園，長廊，游泳池，沙灘，非常美麗。 阿利比拉是將西班牙語Alivio（舒心）與Villa（別墅）組合在一起的疊字，希望塑造成一個非日常的度假空間。 所有客房都有面海小陽台，最小的面積也有43平米，這在30年前的旅館是比較少見的大！ 這間旅館日本本國旅客較多，外國人僅佔5%。對很多日本人來說在沖繩是很有口碑，很想至少要去住一次的高級度假旅館。 飯店前是知名的「Nirai海灘（ニライビーチ）」，曾被TripAdvisor評為沖繩本島排名第一的海灘！他常被誤會是沖繩阿利比拉日航的專屬海灘，但其實一般遊客都可以造訪。 https://lailai-web.com/nirai-beach/ 旅館旁邊有兩間教堂可以辦婚禮，一間是旅館開業之初就在的Alivila Glory Church （アリビラ・グローリー教会） https://www.resortwedding.net/okinawa/alivila/ 另一間是這幾年才蓋起來的Lazor Garden Alivila (ラソール ガーデン・アリビラ クリスティア教会) https://www.resortwedding.net/okinawa/lazor/ https://www.weddingpark.net/000014fd/ 沖繩阿利比拉日航度假酒店（Hotel Nikko Alivila，ホテル日航アリビラ） https://www.alivila.co.jp/tw/ Agoda https://reurl.cc/WD1z8O Booking https://reurl.cc/a1GEzl 查價 https://reurl.cc/KMQE2p Powered by Firstory Hosting

Have you ever wanted to create your own path toward travel? Today I'm joined by Mark White and Steffi Barthel to learn about the inspiring moments that led them to a life of travel, adventure, love, and music. Mark and Steffi met in a small town on the east coast of Australia in November 2016. After traveling together for six months, Mark decided to share his passion with Steffi and taught her to play the Chapman Stick. They now travel around the globe as the world's only Chapman Stick duo, sharing their music and making a difference. If you're looking for that spark of inspiration to start living life on your own terms, this episode is for you. Mark and Steffi share their unconventional approach to earning a living on the road, their advice for international couples, how music connects them as a couple and to the cultures around them, and so much more.
