Hi! I am Kazue. I am from Fukuoka and live in the central city.
I spent almost 20 years traveling around the world as a cabin attendant. Meeting different people, different cultures and eating local food were best things in my career.
This experience definitely widened my perspective and will help me in some way when I work as a guide.
Since I spent half my life outside of Japan, I noticed our culture and traditions are very unique and became more interested in historical sites in Japan.
For my personal life, I am a mom of twins. It is still a hard work but I am enjoying a lot with them. We take them around Kyushu whenever possible for their fun and experience.
We all love traveling after all.
I am looking forward to showing you around our hometown soon!

“Lexus factory visit”
Kazue accompanied us as interpreter to the Lexus factory vist. She was very well prepared, punctual and professional in her translation. It was a pleasure to have her with us.

“Best day yet in Fukuoka”
We had a great first day in Fukuoka with Kazue. She was right on time, very informative and flexible. We had a couple of us that have bad knees, hips etc and she went out of her way to make the tour as comfortable as possible with the least amount of stairs, and gave us great tips and suggestions for restaurants and sights in the area. She is very knowledgeable and sweet. Mahalo Kazue for the best first day ever in Fukuoka!

I really enjoyed being with you all. Thank you! Hope to see you again someday! Have a wonderful time in the rest of your stay! Warmest, Kazue

“Amazing Yatai Food Stall Experience!”
Kazue was an outstanding tour guide! She provided us the opportunity to try many unique Fukuoka specialties at the stalls where the locals still eat and to experience the charming personalities of the owners who have been running the stalls for many years. The food was so good and tasty! Kazue made sure to keep us away from the touristy and crowded stalls around canal city, but did take us around the area to allow us to experience it. What a great local food experience we had! Thanks Kazue
