Thanks for good question, and complete answer. I was going to bring radio bought in Canada. Gave up.

March, 24-26 are the dates we may come to Niseko. Because of that, I don't want to book the hostel beforehand: if no snow, visiting resort wouldn't be worth. Most of the hotels have strict booking polisy with no r
