Akira

I’ve been working as a travel writer and going around all over Japan for over 20 years. I took a government license of interpreter guide about 10 years ago. With the experience of travel writer, I’m guiding foreign guests in Kansai area. I was born and grew up in Osaka. So, since I was a kid, I was going to famous shrines and temples in ancient capitals like Kyoto and Nara. Not only those historical places I know much about local cultures and food. I believe I can guide you to your favorite destinations and introduce our unique cultures. Let travel the ancient capitals with me!
