About Tour Guide Mai H.
Konnichiwa! I'm Mai, a national licensed tour guide from Sendai.
I think of myself as friendly, open minded and considerate.
Personally I love traveling. I’ve visited many countries for various reasons, traveled alone, joined volunteer works, studied at a school. I worked in india Kolkata for a year and after that I lived in a small village in India.
When I visit a country I always love to meet people there. And it made me realized people who I’ve met make the country more attractive and memorable.
So I want to be a guide who can help travelers to have a great time, love this region and make their trip memorable!
aside from guiding travelers, I have hosted many travelers at my house,19 countries so far and I have enjoyed cultural exchanges with them.
learning ideas and cultures of people from other countries helped me to understand my country deeply.
so I'm good at introducing Japan by comparing with other countries and cultures.
I'm always love to share my knowledge and personal experiences with my guest.
and I'm very curious so I enjoy talking any kind of topics like social issues, international relationships, religion, , history, culture, movies and so on.
I look forward to meeting you and hope we have enjoyable time together!!
