    I don't mind the Nord ad because you make travel videos and VPN's are _VERY_ important when traveling. But I also agree that they should be at the beginning, after you tell us where you're going and what train you'll be riding.

    I love the Sunrise Express - most definately a Japanese 'Institution"!
    I watch a few of you travel review guys and I've always wondered why none of you have combined the nobi nobi seat with camping!!! Heres what i would do...
    ● In a soft duffle, I would pack...
    ● a self inflating air mattess. That takes care of the floor problem.
    ● a heat reflective micro sleeping bag. That combined with the blanket will keep you warm.
    ● a capsule (or coffin in America) one man tent. It will fit in the space and provides privacy. Its also side accessible making it perfect to get in and out of in the nobi nobi seat.
    ● Small Jackery power supply to charge your phone and heat up water for cup noodles and coffee. (Bring small electric kettle).
    All this can be packed in the soft duffle and you wont have to store an empty suitcase. The duffle need not be no bigger than the back pack you carry. Yeah, ok. Its gear you have to haul aroundbut if you travel on Sunrise Express often enough in the cheap seats, you may as well be comfortable and relaxed. :-)
    What do you think? Silly idea? Give it a try? Too embarrassed to try something new in public? Cooking in nobi nobi seats is prohibited? LOL
    Just Thinkin!
    Thank you for another lovely trip on Sunrise Express! Love that train!

    Great trip. The nobi nobi seat actually great, but the access for Power outlet is a problem, because the location of power outlet is too far and the amount is can be counted by finger. But for someone who less using phone in public transport, I think this isn't big problem. Anyway you can sleep well in Nobi Nobi and yeah Great Udon
