Hello! My name is Yoshiko. I am a national certified guide interpreter in English and Chinese, and I also speak a little French. I live in Azumino City in Nagano Prefecture, in the central part of Japan.
Earlier in my career, I worked as a tax consultant in Tokyo and spent several years living in England and China. Captivated by the natural beauty and relaxed atmosphere of this region, I relocated from Tokyo in 2025.
I would be delighted to guide you through this region—sharing the beautiful landscapes of the Northern Japan Alps and crystal clear spring water, historically significant sites such as Matsumoto Castle and Zenkoji Temple, and Jigokudani Wild Monkey Park, where you can observe charming wild monkeys in their natural environment. I can also arrange a day trip to Takayama in Gifu Prefecture. I tailor tours to your interests, whether you are traveling alone or in a group, so please feel free to let me know what you would like to see.
I look forward to welcoming you to this wonderful region!
