Akane

Do you know about the Nagasaki Lantern Festival? It's held at the very end of January to early February, so I would go see it if you're still in town. I also enjoyed the Shimabara area. https://planetyze.com/en/japan/search?q=Shimabara

These websites give recommendations on ryokans. Maybe you'll be able to find a nice one to stay at in Yufuin and Kurokawa Onsen here. http://selected-ryokan.com/ryokan/location/yufuin-hot-spring

I don't think it snows that much in Kyushu unless you go up really high in the mountains. If you stay in the areas where the trains are running and the main onsen areas, I think you should be fine.

Enjoy your trip!
