About Tour Guide Miyu F.
My name is Miyu. I have been a Nationally Licensed Guide Interpreter since 2009. I began my career as a tourist guide last year after working as a public servant for nearly four decades.
I worked in the Atomic Bomb Survivors Support Division for 12 years until I retired from the local government, and I continue to interact with Hibakusha. Therefore, I have a lot of knowledge about A-bomb survivors, the reconstruction of Hiroshima, and the effects of radiation on the human body, which I can correctly convey to inbound visitors.
I have experience in tea ceremonies and calligraphy and am especially good at guiding visitors through tea ceremony experiences.
I love to watch baseball games, so I enjoy talking about them with guests from countries where they are popular.
I am a volunteer medical interpreter and can respond to visitors' sudden health problems.

“Miyu is the most knowledgeable guide for Hiroshima ”
We highly recommend that you use Miyu for your tour of Hiroshima. She worked for the Hiroshima department for bomb survivors so she has a deeper insight than a typical guide. She had very good use of the English language and had actually traveled for her work to the United States several times to work with the victims. She was an extremely charming person, and we felt honored to have her as our guide.

Thanks so much for your kind words — they really mean a lot. I had such a great time with you fun sisters! I hope Hiroshima, with its amazing recovery from the atomic bombing, and the beautiful Japanese gardens stay in your memory forever.
