Hello! My name is Kent and I live in Shinjuku, Tokyo. I am a master of Tea ceremony and Ikebana(Flower arrangement). I have been learning these cultural activities for more than 10 years. I have assisted with tea ceremonies at a Zen temple and participated in Ikebana shows for tourists. These experiences have provided me with extensive knowledge and deep insights into Japanese culture developed under the influence of Zen.
While I studied these cultural traditions privately, I majored in engineering and earned a degree in the field from Kyoto University. My days in Kyoto has made me familier with local lives and cultural activities. Thanks to the connections from that time, I can host a tea ceremony there.
After graduating, I worked in robot software development, collaborating remotely with our American colleagues in Michigan. I also engaged with clients and local sales teams in Germany, India, and China. They showed strong interests in Japanese culture and my background. This exposure deepened my appreciation for Japan’s rich cultural heritage, inspiring me to guide tours as well as practicing cultural activities.
Now, I live in Shinjuku, Tokyo with my wife, enjoying life here. I will guide tours to convey the history and culture of Japan and provide creative experiences.
I am also available to offer tours of Kyoto or other places than Tokyo for an additional transportation fee.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!
