\ Self introduction /

Thanks to my father, who loved fishing, I have many fond childhood memories of Awaji Island.
Today, I live between two places: the city of Osaka where I was born and raised, and the nature-rich Awaji Island.

Awaji is known as the “island where the country and culture began,” and it’s a place filled with special energy.
Wanting to share that energy with others through various activities, I decided to begin a dual-base lifestyle here.

\ My past travel experiences  /

I’ve had the opportunity to visit various countries, including Italy, Germany, France, Singapore, Vietnam, China, and the United States.

In each place, I experienced the unique atmosphere of the seasons, the food culture, and the local living environments.
While traveling allowed me to appreciate the richness of each country, being away from Japan also gave me a renewed awareness of the beauty, depth, and openness of my own country—especially its remarkable capacity to embrace diverse cultures.

\ How to Spend my Time on Awaji Island /

Awaji Island is a place where the calm sea is just steps away, and the sunsets are truly stunning.
Especially in summer, soaking in the water while watching the sun go down is the ultimate moment of mindfulness—deeply relaxing for both body and soul.

\ About work /

My main profession involves planning and designing packaging for cosmetics and health supplements, as well as providing specialized printing and processing services.
With themes like “beauty and health” and “well-being,” I’m engaged in a variety of projects that contribute to a richer and more fulfilling life.

\ About Authentic Japan tour /

Well-being —
I hope to create tours where we can experience health and happiness that connect us to our innate sense of richness and joy as human beings.
Through these experiences, I believe we can plant the seeds for an even more abundant future—together.

\ My interests /

I love all kinds of rideable gear—motorbikes, jet skis, SUP, wakeboarding, snowboarding, skateboarding, and windsurfing.
Right now, I’m totally hooked on kite surfing!

\ Langages/

I communicate with people from all over the world using Osaka dialect, expressive body language, and passionate English—
with a little help from my trusty POCKETALK translator!

\ What I Hope to Share Through Travel /

Let’s break down language barriers through a variety of activities—and share the beauty of the world together.

What I value in the journey I offer

  • Earthing while touching the island’s nature.

    Releasing the various energies absorbed through daily life,you will refresh both body and mind while earthing into the Earth.

  • Gaining energy from the island’s nature and returning to your natural self.

    Through grounding, you’ll gently reset your body and mind,
    soaking in the natural energy of the island.
    As you reconnect with yourself, you’ll begin to notice the beautiful mindset that already lives within you—and return to your most natural, authentic self.

  • In a relaxed and natural state,<br>you’ll gently connect and have a quiet conversation with your future self.

    By gently conversing with your natural self,
    you’ll meet the truest version of who you wish to become.
    With that positive mindset,
    you’ll be invited to share your vision for the future and what lies ahead.
