About Tour Guide Haru Y.

Hello, I am Haruhiko.

I was born in the year 1957 in Hyogo and was brought up there before entering the university.

I graduated from university in Osaka. After graduating the university, I worked as international sales people for about 45 years.

My job was to go to foreign countries and sell our products to foreign customers.

I went to about 20 countiries about 200 times.

Throught these business trips, I talked much with lots of foreign people not only about business matters but also private and other matters. I have found it will make my experiences wider and make my knolwdge deeperto talk with people with different culture, hisotry and backgound.

My hobby is to go to Buddhism temples, Shinto Shrines & Castles and to learn about culture & history of this country. I began to think that how it is interesting to introduce them to foreign people.

I got the License of Guide Interpreter (English) and began to guide in the year 2022.

My favorite area of guide is Kansai area such as Kyoto, Nara Osaka & Hyogo.

I have guided these areas about 500 times.

If you have a chance to come to Kansai Area, why doon't you join my area !!

I am looking forward to seeing you.

Thank you.
