Hello everyone, My name is Shin. I am very pleased that you have chosen Japan as your travel destination among so many countries. As a nationally licensed professional guide (in English and German), I have been introducing the wonders of Japan to many international visitors since 2017. This has been a truly valuable and meaningful time in my life. Originally, I worked as an engineer at a steel manufacturing company for 40 years. During that time, I gained extensive experience working internationally. I have a strong interest in the cultures and arts of different countries. However, what I value most are the wonderful encounters and friendships between people. I mainly work as a tour guide in and around Tokyo. On the other hand, my hometown is Kyoto. If you would like information about Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, or other areas, please feel free to contact me. I would be delighted to help make your trip to Japan a wonderful stage in your life. Thank you very much for reading. Hallo zusammen, mein Name ist Shin. Ich freue mich sehr, dass Sie Japan als Ihr Reiseziel gewählt haben. Als staatlich lizenzierter professioneller Guide stelle ich seit 2017 zahlreichen ausländischen Gästen Japan vor. Diese Tätigkeit ist für mich eine äußerst wertvolle Erfahrung, die ich als einen wahren Schatz betrachte. Ursprünglich war ich Ingenieur in einem Stahlunternehmen. Etwa 40 Jahre lang war ich als Geschäftsmann tätig und habe dabei vielfältige Auslandserfahrungen gesammelt. Ich interessiere mich sehr für ausländische Kulturen, Kunst und Essgewohnheiten. Was mir jedoch am wichtigsten ist, sind wunderbare Begegnungen zwischen Menschen über Ländergrenzen hinweg sowie gegenseitige Empathie und Verständnis. Derzeit arbeite ich hauptsächlich als Tourguide in Tokio und Umgebung. Meine Heimat ist jedoch Kyoto, und dort kenne ich mich sehr gut aus. Wenn Sie Informationen über Kyoto, Osaka oder Nara wünschen, kontaktieren Sie mich bitte gern. Ich möchte Ihnen dabei helfen, dass Ihre Japanreise zu einer wunderbaren Bühne in Ihrem Leben wird.  Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, meinen Text zu lesen. - National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter for English and German.
