It is wonderful that someone gains the new stimulations through new activities. If that happened in unfamiliar circumstances, your feeling and sensibilities would be responsive more than usual. Such an experience will be unforgettable memory for sure. I would be very happy, if I could help you to decorate your trip more enjoyable and make you love our country. I look forward to seeing you soon. Thank you.

I have been studying English. I’d like to have communication with people who have different culture and who are interested in our country. There are many nice places in Kansai area, not only historical places, but also very modern and lively places. Kansai is also said being the kitchen of Japan. There are many kinds of delicious food. If you are interested in Japanese traditional performing arts, I’ll try to find an appropiate opportunity that you can attend. I hope you can enjoy traveling Japan very much, especially Kansai area.

Japanese Cooking Experience

Sushi, Sashimi, Tempura, Shabu-Shabu, Sukiyaki…

Japanese cuisine is very well known worldwide. It is regarded as one of the most healthy and tasty cuisines.

However there are popular and casual Japanese dishes that can be easily prepared, which are not served at restaurants.

If you have free time during your visit to the famous sightseeing places, such as Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara, why don’t you spare one day for a Japanese cooking experience?!

Let’s have fun cooking Japanese daily meals!
