Canoeing

Born in Shizuoka Prefecture in 1971. Loved camping since childhood! After discovering kayaking, he was drawn to rivers, and his first overseas trip was a 250km river trip on the Yukon River. Wanting to go down more rivers, he quit his job as a salaryman and moved to Hokkaido. While traveling around the prefecture in search of new rivers, he is also interested in environmental issues and learns about the importance of nature with local children.

Born in Niigata. While working as a master carpenter, he became involved with a company at a log construction site. Attracted by the rich natural environment, he moved to Minamifurano. He guides forest programs, canoes, rafts, and more. He will guide you through the tours with his deep knowledge and entertaining conversation skills. He will also guide foreigners in English.
