  • With over 200 years of history, Iizukatei was the home of the wealthy Iizuka family, now renovated in to a unique boutique hotel. Iizukatei fuses sophisticated modern interiors with traditional architecture and is just a few hours drive north of Tokyo, in serene Nakagawa-machi, a small town in the north-east of Tochigi Prefecture.

Miss Arevalo. An absolute gorgon. She married a man whose last name was Iizuka. He was from Japan. I sincerely hope if this is the same Iizuka family she married into - it at least improved her disposition to be surrounded by such quiet serenity.

    I do Sushi by myself here in my kitchen sometimes, like also noodles and soy sauce from Japan. There are some asian shops to buy in Stockholm City -Sweden. Now lots of Sushi Bar are every corners of Stockholm... nearby my apartment too. Take care and thank you for the clipp. Amazing!
