PROFILE​

I was born and raised in Osaka. I have lived in Kashihara City next to Asuka Village for 43 years after getting married. I have about 3 years of experience as a guide, guiding foreign tourists mainly in Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe. I also have a deep interest in history and culture, and am very good at explaining archaeological sights and local history. We always try to be flexible to meet the needs of our guests and provide pleasant service.Asuka Village is a veritable treasure trove for Japanese history buffs. There are many ancient ruins in this area that still hold many mysteries, and I am often impressed by the depth of these ruins when I visit the excavation sites for explanatory meetings. The background of the excavation and explanations of the excavated artifacts given directly by the experts at the explanatory meetings make these ruins more familiar to the visitors.Gourmet tours, walking and cycling tours are also available.
