- comments:
I grew up in Otsu City, Shiga prefecture, which is almost the center of Japan. Biwako, or the lake Biwa is in five minutes from my house and it is well known as an ancient lake, four million- year-old, and the biggest lake in Japan. The lake is surrounded by very beautiful mountain range and you can overlook continuous magnificent scenery from the upper-deck of the pleasure boat, Michigan. Therefore, Biwako has been registered as a quasi-national park.
Since my retirement in 2000, I have been learning how to guide in Kyoto for several years to make tourists feel fine and be satisfied. It has been depending on a plenty of friendly support by a number of private English teachers and some of my foreign friends living in Kyoto and Otsu. Then I have walked around the city center with many visitors and I have got a lot of useful guiding experience.
If you want to have a pleasant time after guiding service with Karaoke, drinking and dancing in Gion, I guess I will never refuse your offering.
