Are There Free Wi-Fis on Train Stations? or Recommend Places With Free Wi-Fi?

There’s surprisingly many spots in the big cities (cafes, restaurants, malls) and also in the Shinkansen. That said, it can be kind of a hit and miss, especially if you leave the bigger cities.

Pocket wifi is overpriced IMO. eSIM with data-only is super comfortable and pretty cheap per GB. Get them in a tech store like Bic Camera.

However it may not be possible to create a hotspot. Regular data sim cards are also available and cheap. Not sure if they can have the same restrictions, or if those restrictions would apply to your phone.

Any S3 compatible server where I can define where individual bucket storage is?

Good question, but I‘m afraid we‘re looking for a solution to a problem that S3 is not trying to solve. Blob storage solves problems such as redundancy and resiliency, effectively abstracting away the underlying storage.

That said, I would recommend hosting different instances ("clusters") of Garage S3 for that purpose. You could also use the storage type as the region name for more clarity (AFAIK a garage cluster works with a single region).

This would probably work well because Garage is so light on resources (unlike minio). I also have Garage running in a similar setup for around 2 years, with daily reads/writes… Never had an operational issue. Rock-solid stuff.

お好み焼き - Okonomiyaki

The result looks impressive for a first time! I find it hard to get the right balance of tastes.

I think my favourite one is in a little restaurant in Gion, Kyōto, where it is prepared in front of me on the teppan (鉄板) by the chef before being enjoyed piece by piece. You really eat it with all your senses, I love it.
