    At my previous job at a major travel agency, I supported Japanese expatriates and companies in South America. With the help of many people in the Japanese community, I learned about the unique business customs of South America and realized how challenging these countries can be. This inspired me to start my own business, aiming to provide the speed, quality, and attentive service that Japanese clients expect. Drawing on nearly 10 years of experience in the travel industry in Brazil, I strive every day to become the only local operator who can clearly propose and explain the often confusing local details in these distant regions from Japan.

    In my previous job at a major travel agency, I took care of Japanese expatriates and companies in South America.
    With the cooperation of many people from the Japanese community, I learned about South America's unique business customs and realized how difficult the countries were. This experience led me to want to provide the speed, quality, and meticulous service that Japanese people demand, which was the impetus for starting my business.
    Based on my knowledge and insights gained from nearly 10 years of travel industry experience in Brazil, I am studying daily to become the only local operator that can properly propose and explain the local conditions of places very far from Japan and that are difficult to understand.

    Since childhood, I've been interested in other countries. During college and after starting work, whenever I had free time, I would think about where I wanted to go. (Money didn't follow, so I couldn't go outside of Japan often...) Sometimes I would leave Narita with only a rough plan and an airline ticket.
    Now I'm living in South America, which I never imagined. "You never know what life will bring," I think these days.
    However, after starting my life in Ecuador and encountering Ecuador's wonderful tourist resources and crafts, I wanted more people around the world to know about them, and if possible, contribute to the country's development, so I knocked on the door of a local travel agency.
    The place on the other side of the globe, which you might think of as "far away," might feel much closer once you come. Let's forget the everyday and share new encounters and experiences together. I'll be waiting for you on the other side of the globe.

What kind of country is Cuba?

Cuba, discovered by Columbus in the late 15th century and praised as 'the most beautiful island on earth,' is located south of Florida, USA, and is the largest island in the Caribbean, consisting of the main island and over 1600 small islands and reefs.
The emerald green sea and bright sun, along with the rich nature and colorful culture that create a Latin atmosphere, have always captivated travelers, both past and present. For a city walk, visit the old town of Havana, a World Heritage site, or Trinidad, and Santiago de Cuba, the holy land of Cuban music. For endless fun at the sea, head to Varadero. To trace the footsteps of the Cuban revolutionary hero Che Guevara, go to Santa Clara. If you have time, trying music or dance lessons can be an interesting experience. Also, when it comes to Cuba, rum and cigars come to mind. Enjoying a cigar with a glass of rum, once dearly loved by the literary giant Ernest Hemingway, during a leisurely evening is a blissful time unique to Cuba.
