Hello there! I am hoping you're having a great day!! My name is Jose, born and raised in Spain (Barcelona) and I have been living in Japan for the last 14 years, first it was Hiroshima that I called home, now it is Kyoto. This city is amazing, this country is just different, you need to feel it, you have to love it. I have a wide knowledge of japanese culture, it's social life and it's manners, as well as the most impressive monuments, streets, parks and temples, I mean I live here and I'm not planning on leaving, so yes, I am your guide if you want me to. I love the city of Kyoto and all of the wonders it has to offer to the people whom decide to visit it, from Fushimi Inari temple to Nijo Castle. It is a surprising city with combines the best of modern day activities with the reminiscence of old Japan. I would like to share my experience in Japan with you, so you have the greatest experience possible.
