Hi, I’m Aya! I find such peace and beauty in Hiroshima, especially on the serene Miyajima Island and during quiet walks through Hiroshima Peace Park. I love uncovering hidden stories of our city and learning about our history, particularly the enduring message of peace that Hiroshima represents. I know the ins and outs of Miyajima, Hiroshima Peace Park, and Kure city, and I’m passionate about sharing these special places with you. As a supporter of Hibakusha (survivors of the atomic bombing), I can offer you a unique and heartfelt perspective on our city's past and present. And, of course, I’d love to introduce you to Hiroshima’s delicious local cuisine, from Okonomiyaki to grilled oysters!
