Hi Constance, thank you so much for your wonderful review. I truly enjoyed our time together, hearing your many interesting stories. I hope you'll come back to Tokyo again someday. Or who knows—if I make it to San Francisco for the World Cup, I’ll be sure to reach out!

Hi Peter, Thank you so much for your kind review. I’m delightede to hear that your family enjoyed the tour, especially on such a hot, summer-like day! I hope the rest of your stay in Japan brings even more memorable experiences—and plenty of delicious meals, including monjayaki and sukiyaki! Wishing you all the best and safe travels.

Hi アンジーさん、ジュリーさん、キャレンさん、スコットさん、スティーブさん Thank you so much for your wonderful review. You all were always full of positive energy, and your efforts to understand my country—including your interest in learning Japanese—were truly touching. The two days we spent together were incredibly meaningful for me as well. I can still hear Scott’s unforgettable “shabu—shabu—” chant echoing in my mind! In Japan, we have a beautiful phrase rooted in the tea ceremony: ichigo ichie—a once-in-a-lifetime encounter. I feel this perfectly captures our time together, and I’d like to offer it to you all. Wishing you many wonderful encounters, delicious meals, and sake tastings on your cruise journey. Matane!
