About me

I am from Hokkaido and I have worked as a trekking guide/ a tour guide in Canadian Rocky area in the National Parks in the past. Right now I have been guiding as a Mountain guide/ a Nature guide in Hokkaido. Based in Hokkaido, especially in Rishiri & Rebun Islands/ Eastern Hokkaido/ Daisetsuzan NP/Niseko area. I specialize in guiding guests through nature, focusing on birds, alpine flowers, and trekking for long trails during the Summer season. I have organized snowshoe tours during the Winter time. Guided tours are available in English.

Why a trip to my region is worthwhile

I am a mountain guide/a nature guide originally from Hokkaido.
I share with you the beauty of Hokkaido’s magnificent nature and the unique charm of each of its four seasons.
I value communication with my guests and strive to make your stay in Hokkaido a truly special experience.
Beyond the majestic mountains and pristine nature, I hope you to enjoy the local cultures, regional cuisine, and relaxing hot springs that make each area of Hokkaido unique.

In addition, I can provide insightful guidance on the Okhotsk culture, an ancient civilization that once flourished in parts of Hokkaido, offering a deeper understanding of the island’s rich history and heritage.
