I am Ichi, born and grew up in Osaka, the vibrant commercial center of western Japan. I have been working as a professional tour guide since 2015. I would like to show you around my energetic, friendly city Osaka, but I can also take you to Kyoto and Nara, two neighoring ancient capital cities of Japan. In my youth, I lived in USA, UK and South Korea and traveled to more than 40 countries around the world. I believe the greatest pleasure of traveling is meeting new people who have different ways of thinking and lifestyles. I also used to run my own restaurant, and I am very much into food and drinks. And I can be flexible to your needs of the day. I hope to become a bridge for you to undestand Japan and Japanese people. Furthermore, I hope to become your first friend in Japan.
