I feel great joy in meeting travelers, and I believe that being a tour guide is my vocation. At the 2023 Adventure Travel World Summit, I was an activity guide at Pre-Summit Adventure. JAL&ANA in-flight magazine August 2023 issue, on display on the digital signage at New Chitose Airport from April 2024 to March 2025 , and many other media appearances. As a guide, I will do my best to help you make your precious travel time a treasure of a lifetime.

Hello. My name is Aya. I have been involved in outdoor activities for children in Japan’s northernmost island Hokkaido, for nearly 20 years. I love forest bathing.
My hobbies are Japanese drum, hot springs, and izakayas (Japanese-style pubs). Hokkaido has the best foods and drinks!
As a guide, I enjoy talking with people from various backgrounds, and feel that these encounters broaden my perspectives and enrich my life. I find happiness in gaining new knowledge every day.
I am a guide with a passion for sharing Hokkaido’s charms with my guests.
