  For eight years, I acquired expertise in planning, sales, and tour guiding at a Japanese travel company specializing in hidden gems. After being captivated by Guatemala during a one-day tour, I moved there alone. In Guatemala, I worked for ten years as a cultural and public relations officer at the Japanese Embassy.
  I built a network in Guatemala and, aiming to share its charm with more people in Japan, established a government-approved travel agency with my husband, Shingo Matsumoto, in January 2004. I hold qualifications as a travel operations manager and a guide approved by the Guatemala Tourism Board, with over 30 years in the travel industry. I am eager to fully convey the allure of Guatemala and Central America!

  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.
