I have a deep appreciation for Nagoya’s rich history, from its samurai heritage to its vibrant food culture. As a city that blends industry and tradition, Nagoya offers fascinating contrasts—home to Toyota’s innovation and Japan’s most temples. I enjoy exploring its culinary scene, from French and Chinese cuisine to unique local delicacies like fermented foods. Whether strolling through underground shopping malls or visiting iconic sites like Nagoya Castle and Atsuta Shrine, I love sharing the best of the city. With extensive knowledge of Sengoku warriors and shoguns, as well as Nagoya’s best restaurants, I can introduce you to the heart of this dynamic city.
