🌸 Warmest welcome! I’m a Russian living in Japan — from Moscow to Tokyo, with a few delicious detours along the way — here I am: your travel bestie and go-to guide for uncovering hidden gems, top tables, and everything in between! My story started in Moscow, wandered through the U.S., and found its forever home in Japan. For over 20 years, I’ve been soaking up everything this country has to offer — the language, culture, history, and yes, way too much wagyu and sushi! Tokyo’s been my playground all this time, and trust me, it never gets old. If you’re craving a Tokyo experience that goes beyond the usual checklist, you’re in the right hands 🙌 Whether your vibe is art, history, gardens, or simply eating your way through the city (no judgment — I do it too), I’ve got you covered! From cozy izakayas hidden down lantern-lit alleys to breathtaking viewpoints and charming neighborhoods only locals wander into, I dig up the kind of places that make you feel like you’ve discovered something special — because you have! I love crafting experiences that suit every style and budget, mixing a taste of tradition with a splash of adventure. Think sushi with soul, temples with stories, and corners of the city you never knew existed. Tokyo is full of surprises, and I’m here to help you find them — with a full belly and a big smile 🤩 Oh, and by the way — I didn’t just fall in love with Japan, I graduated in it! After earning my degree in Hospitality Business and International Tourism from Moscow State University of Management in 2003, I packed my bags (and an oversized inspiration) and headed to Tokyo. Some years later, I earned my diploma from the famous Travel & Conductor College (2012) and proudly passed the Japanese Language Proficiency Test at N2 level — because I like to really blend in when I ask for extra ramen toppings 😋 Count on me, I know this country like the back of my train ticket, and you will do too! My travel motto? Don’t just visit Japan — live it! I’ll encourage you to roll up your sleeves for hands-on workshops, chat with locals over a cup of matcha, and dive into real-life experiences that show what everyday Japanese living is truly like. Because the best way to understand Japan isn’t by following a map — it’s by following your curiosity! Ready to turn your Tokyo dreams into reality? Let’s team up and create a day that’s totally you — whether that means ancient temples, neon-lit backstreets, food adventures, or all of the above. Reach out today, and together we’ll craft an experience that’s full of stories, flavor, and those little magical moments you’ll remember every time you think back to Japan. Your future self will thank you (probably while smiling at a photo of you eating something amazing). So hey, let’s make some unforgettable memories — Tokyo-style! 🇯🇵✨ Just a quick note — I’m not a licensed guide, so I can’t make bookings or buy tickets on your behalf. But don’t worry — I’m great at politely persuading your hotel receptionist to handle all that for you! 😉✨ And while I won’t be behind the wheel myself, I’m happy to help arrange a comfy ride with a professional driver, so you can sit back, relax, enjoy the view and listen to my stories! 🚗✨🫶
