Our Fukui trip finally arrived in the port town of Tsuruga 🚐🌬️. This journey began with delicious seafood from the fishing port. Kehi Shrine, Kehi Pine Grove, Kanegasaki, Tsuruga Red Brick Warehouse… we ate, walked, and explored the town…
In the past, it was possible to travel to Europe with just one ticket by train and ship. The kelp culture, brought by Kitamae ships, still thrives in Tsuruga today.
Right next to the port was the site of the "Kanegasaki Retreat," a major stage in Japanese history, where Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi fought.
That evening, when we went out for ramen, we were met with an unexpectedly long line…
We spent the night in our car near Tsuruga Station 🚐🌙
The more we explored, the more we felt there were still so many places we wanted to visit in the port town of Tsuruga ⚓️.
We hope you'll enjoy our travel time with us again this time! 😊

●Self-Introduction
We are a senior couple who started a round-Japan trip in our minivan (NV200 Vanette) in December 2023, sleeping in the car.
MASA (husband, 60s) quit his post-retirement job, and AYA (wife, 50s at the time) took early retirement to start the trip. Because you only live once. Because we want to cherish the time we have left together. Because we might not be able to do this next year (lol). Senior travel is a serious matter for us. The name "Yuruchoco" comes from the combination of "Yuru-ku" (relaxed) and "Henachoko" (clumsy/amateurish), reflecting the image of a couple's journey.
In our videos, we'll candidly share not only the best aspects of traveling in a van, but also our own blunders.
We hope this will be helpful for couples looking for ways to spend their time after retirement, and we'd love to travel together with you all through YouTube.
