Flexible car hire

Are there any car companies that are flexible about extending your booking at short notice?

I will have a car in Hokkaido and plan to go to Honshu afterwards. I want to make a car hire booking that is easy to extend in the case that the conditions aren’t great in Honshu.

Does anyone have experience with this and can recommend a car hire company?

I took a ski trip in February where I was fortunate to have epic powder conditions (timed it for a storm). Now, I just can’t stop thinking about next season.

What do you do during the off season? Have you found an activity that is as enjoyable? do you just live in anticipation? Or do you manage to just switch off the anticipation until your again?

I do enjoy other hobbies. I surf and mountain biking ride, which are both quite fun. But unless I’m surfing Indo like conditions, it just doesn’t compare.

I used to paraglide and kitesurf a lot, but conditions are pretty fickle where I live.

It’s not like I’m miserable. I love being with my wife and kids and we do great things together, but I honestly can’t get skiing powder off my mind most of the time.

How do you switch off the yearning, so you can better enjoy the moments you’re in?
