I have designed tours and guided English-speaking overseas guests within and outside the rural Okayama area for the past ten years.

My tours are characterised by authenticity, connection, and spontaneity.I believe in creating travel experiences that deeply touch and benefit all parties involved.

The artisans in the countryside are not just skilled craftsmen, they are gems.Their stories, together with their openness, sincerity and directness, create a personal connection that will touch your very being.

I look forward to seeing you absorbed in each artisan’s story and returning home inspired, uplifted, and wanting to return for more.
