Fascinated by the beautiful nature & the open-minded people living there, I moved from Kanto Region to Tamura,Fukushima in 1990. Just after the Great East Japan Earthquake,I was forced to stay at an evacuation center and then to live in the temporary house for some years． Being qualified as a Fukushima regional interpreter guide,I’ve had several chances to accompany foreign guests visiting mainly the area on the Pacific Ocean．
Recently, some visitors are enjoying touring around Tamura,Koriyama area in addition to the Seacoast Area．How about visiting the nature & the history the locals have lived with？Sometimes you can talk to the people there,and get to know how they’ve lived since 3.11．I would be happy if you find or feel something after you visit My Local Area‼

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!

I'd like to introduce the unknown but attractive spots in Fukushima Prefecture. As I’m a volunteer guide in The Omiya Bonsai Art Museum, I can introduce bonsai trees in Fukushima Prefecture. I can also introduce Japan Heritage “The single canal that opened up the future” clearly.
