Some of my beer enthusiast friends back home were asking about the craft beers here in Japan. I found these at a nearby rest stop. They’re local to my area, I’m by Lake Biwa in Shiga-Ken #shiga #shigaken #shigakenjapan #shigaprefecture #craftbeerculture #craftbeersnob #craftbeerporn #craftbeerjapan #craftbeerkings #craftbeerlovers #craftbeernation #japanlakebiwa #lakebiwajapan #angelinoinshiga #wanitakashiro (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/Byt2PgzpN9s/?igshid=avt3j7dq66n9

Recreated our living room (we miss that couch so much) to start this project. #thebearrepublic_byhotdogandbun #hotdogandbunoriginal #hotdogandbunmedia #husbandandwifeteam #losangelestojapan #angelinoinshiga #alloriginalcontent #thisisusthisishowweroll #shigaken #shigakenjapan (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByjzwaMAlXQ/?igshid=1pqtb4abzve2w

I picked the jean jacket. ¥2000, as opposed to the sport jacket at ¥7800. #heiwadounofficialmodel #heiwado #heiwadokatata #beststoreinshiga #younameittheyhaveit #shigaken #shigakenjapan #shigaken🇯🇵 #shigaprefecture #otsushiga #otsu_shiga #wanitakashiro #katata #iloveshiga #angelinoinshiga (at Katata, Otsu-shi) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByaG76yprlm/?igshid=1e4au0uc7a1xt

Look at that system of connecting tree roots. I was getting some dirt for our starter garden. We planted some tomatoes, some cherry tomatoes, some kyuri (Japanese cucumbers), some eggplants, some okra, some red leaf lettuce, some shishito peppers, and some red pepper. Tomorrow we’ll plant the purple potatoes and the ginger. But I still need to work on these roots. I’ve no idea what I’m doing, we’re just doing it. #shigakenjapan #shigaprefecture #meandmybear #yardworkishardwork #yardworkwithmybear #plantingvegetables #vegetableplanting #wanitakashiro #ironsharpensiron⚔️ #hardworkisrewarding #ourowngarden #growyourownfoods #angelinoinshiga #losangelestojapan #ilovemrss #mrssandlittleb #meandmrss #thefamiliythatgrowstogethereatscheaper (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByNMOTNpvoY/?igshid=1oecjb3f5rxz0

It’s going to be a hard day today. I’ll get more veggies at lunch and dinner, but I need my B12. #fromlosangelestojapan #shigakenjapan #ilovemybear #yardworkishardwork #yardworkwithmybear #shigaprefecture #japanesebreakfast #thisishowweeat (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx3SD48JLNr/?igshid=1tdkdyapw4d4h

Our old living room in Downtown Culver City that I’m missing SO MUCH right now, as you can see Mrs S made our living room miniaturized for The Bear Republic, as you can see our initial starting sets. But ALL OUR BEARS ARE IN STORAGE BACK IN L.A. and I want to make more stop motion videos. I’ve been here in Japan only 2 weeks and it’s been so long since we made any videos. I’m already going stir crazy over here, but forget about it, im buying some fabrics and set making materials. Der Führer is driving both of us nuts!! I need to CREATE!! #ilovemybear #shigakenjapan #shigaken #angelinoinshiga #fromlosangelestojapan #wanitakashiro #otsushiga #mrssandlittleb #hotdogandbunoriginal #hotdogandbunforever #hotdogandbunfilms #hotdogandbunproductions #hotdogandbunmedia #thebearrepublic_byhotdogandbun #ilovemybear #ilovemrss #stopmotionbyhotdogandbun (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx2ECHUp31x/?igshid=6k1nigc1j2ds

Barely here two weeks and already injured my ankle in our battle against the encroaching jungle of stumps and roots and poorly thought out neighborhood nuisance adjacent lot shenanigans of several years’ deferred maintenance. #ilovemybear #shigakenjapan #shigaprefecture #iloveshiga #yardworkishardwork #brokenbricks #guttercovers #mrssandlittleb #weworkwelltogether #tuffstuff #hardworkpaysoff🙌 #becarefullwhenworking #watchyoursteppendejo #clumsyeric #completeklutz #maspendejo #stillmuchtodo (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx1EBrWJkIo/?igshid=73rr77xxls39

Today was a hard day, y’all. I hand sawed that stump like a champ. It took an hour and a half and I had to keep using a drill to put holes in it to make it easier because we’ll destroy it was salt solution soon. Whilst letting the drill cool here and there, I hand sawed a few more tree stumps to make them shorter for the salt solution process. I’m absolutely exhausted, but feeling fulfilled. #fromlosangelestojapan #shigakenjapan #iloveshiga #orale #shigajapan #yardworkishardwork #yardworkwithmybear #mrssandlittleb #weworkwelltogether #ilovemybear #ilovemrss #angelinoinshiga #shigaken #shigaprefecture #geterdone💪 #notbadforaguywithms (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxzJHV2JWfh/?igshid=v20dbkrvihfx

Needed a quiet moment alone late at night and just noticed that it’s quieter during the daylight hours here. But it’s probably the most beautiful moment I’ve ever experienced, calming and relaxing. The crickets and the frogs, the occasional dog barking, the sound of water flowing beneath me in the gutters of the runoff. Even back home I never experienced anything like this. #iloveshiga #shigakenjapan #orale #shigajapan #makingourhouseahome #fromlosangelestojapan (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxxJo3oJ1bU/?igshid=1boq9u2pn6h3o

We started digging up roots, marking all the stumps with little flags, and that big ass stump all dug up in the middle had a root going all the way to the corner by the dead tree I cut down the other day. Today, taking a break from digging, we shortened some trees that were causing issues with the roof by the door and inhibiting the gutters from letting rainwater flow, attracting skeeters 🦟 right at the door. NO, so I did what I had to, and cleaned up bushes on the front rocks. I love this place, our home. #yardworkishardwork #losangelestojapan #workingwithmywife #yardworkwithmybear #losangelestoshiga #iloveshiga #shigajapan #shigaken #shigakenjapan #mrssandlittleb #makingourhouseahome #orale (at Otsu, Shiga) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxw7ytOpB8F/?igshid=ehhauwta3iu0
