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.
