Hi, I’m Austen! What I love most about Kobe is how it can shift from lively and modern to quiet and traditional in just a turn. I explore the city by bike, uncovering its rich history, peaceful temples, and hidden scenic spots. Along the way, I never miss the chance to try new foods, whether it’s a local specialty or a hidden café with a perfect view. I know the most picturesque and tranquil neighborhoods, where Kobe’s charm truly shines. If you’re looking for a mix of history, food, and off-the-beaten-path adventures, I’d love to show you around!
