2.5 years of professional tour-guiding experience in Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara, specializing in private and customized tours.

Multilingual: I guide in English, French, and Spanish, allowing me to connect with travellers from a wide range of backgrounds.

I grew up immersed in Japanese culture through my Japanese stepmother, while also experiencing Japan as an outsider.This gives me a unique perspective and allows me to make Japanese culture easier and more interesting for foreign travellers.

I’m passionate about history, spirituality, storytelling, and Japanese culture, and I love drawing connections between Japanese traditions and travellers’ own cultures.

My background in teaching has taught me how to communicate clearly and adapt to different personalities, interests, and levels of curiosity.

Most importantly, I’m a people person and a passionate nerd who knows how to keep things fun.I put a lot of care into every tour and adapt the pace and depth to make each traveller feel comfortable and engaged.

*I don't have many reviews on this platform yet, because I book the majority of my tours through agencies, but I also conduct occasional free walking tours in Osaka, so please feel free to check out my profile and reviews on Guruwalk as well.
