About Tour Guide Akari Y.
It has been a year since I started guiding in the Kansai area last spring. I am passionate about introducing the beauty of Japan.
I am happy to introduce guests from overseas to the Japanese culture established by our predecessors.
I will introduce Japanese culture, food, cuisine, sake, nature, manga, spiritual culture, history, Buddhism, Shinto, Shugendo, pilgrimage paths, and other topics of interest.
Let me introduce myself. I was born in Osaka and grew up in Osaka and Kyoto. I have lived in the U.S., China, and Australia when I was younger.
