Self-Introduction

Have you ever had such an experience when you hired a guide? "Tell me more why that happen?" , "Show me how it connected to our current life?" I'm passionate about fulfilling your desire to know it more.

Japan has nurtured its culture in an extremely unique environment that is rarely seen in the world. My tour is not only introduction of culture / history ,but also sharing “how do we live in what kind of way of thinking”.

In addition to my expertise for Art, Beauty and Geoscience, my experience of R&D /marketing of skincare brand in Japanese cosmetic company and deep understanding the relationship between our way of living and climate as certified meteorologists will surely stimulate your intellectual curiosity.
