GOTO Masako後藤　正子

Hello! I’m here to assist you in exploring the literary heritage of Fukushima Prefecture, following in the footsteps of writers and poets, including the renowned Matsuo Bashō.

I can also provide interpretation services in Polish (please note that I am not a certified Polish tour guide, so my role will be limited to interpretation only). If you need an interpreter when welcoming guests from Poland, feel free to reach out. I would be happy to help!

My goal is to provide a safe and comfortable guided experience for visitors who sincerely appreciate and respect Japanese culture, traditions, and customs.
However, I am unable to accept requests from individuals who deliberately violate Japan’s laws, ethics, morals, or social norms, or engage in disruptive or illegal activities.
I warmly welcome those who wish to enjoy their stay in Japan with respect and responsibility.

Hello there! I’m Mariko. I’m a licensed Tour Guide. I was born in Fukushima and that’s where I live now, but I also lived in Tokyo for more than 30 years. Before that, I lived in Germany for three years. I have worked for an American company, a French company and a Japanese company and I have made a lot of business and personal trips to the US, Europe and Asia. Now I teach English to Japanese people and Japanese to foreigners, as well as being a tour guide. So, I think I’m quite international at this point.
My hobbies are mountain climbing, walking through the streets of the cities and towns, and Aikido, which is one of the martial arts. I also like eating local foods and drinking sake and meeting people.
　What would you like to do during your trip to Japan? By understanding what you’d like to do and see, I will be able to plan the best trip for you anyplace in Fukushima, Tohoku, Tokyo and many other areas.
I’d like to help you discover the charm of Japan! See you soon!
