Hi, I’m Chiyo! What I love most about Tokyo is how vibrant and multifaceted it is—there’s always something to stimulate all the senses. I also appreciate how the city blends old and new in such a unique way. I enjoy exploring Tokyo’s diverse architecture, from traditional buildings to cutting-edge designs, and discovering the wide range of cafes, from retro to luxurious, is my latest hobby. I know the neighborhoods of Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ginza, and Setagaya really well. Having practiced tea ceremony, I’m familiar with its history, manners, and beautiful kimonos. I also love vintage and thrift shopping, especially for fashion and furniture. As a parent, I’m familiar with kid-friendly spots around Tokyo and love exploring local restaurants in the Setagaya area. I can’t wait to share my favorite places with you!
