I spent the first 12 years of my life growing up in Tokyo, going through both international and Japanese school systems. Despite moving away at the age of twelve, I was absolutely determined to return to Japan as soon as and as often as I could. Junior year of high school was when I finally got the chance to take a six-week trip, during which I familiarized myself once again with the mesmerizing country, its complex language, and cryptic culture. Upon discharge from a three year military intelligence service, I packed my bags and before long I was on a plane to Japan. This time it was to work for a Japanese corporation in the IT-security field, as a sales engineer. Employed in an entirely Japanese office environment, with daily visits to Japanese clients to demonstrate IT products, I got closely acquainted with the business culture and etiquette. I also picked up massive amounts of techniques the shrewd businessmen and locals in general use to get by in an expensive country while still enjoying everything it has to offer. My most recent trips to Japan were as a tourist at the end of 2009 and the summer of 2012, when I spent a couple of months traveling to different parts of the country and writing my Japan travel guide, "All-You-Can Japan." Though I must admit, I do have a sweet spot for Tokyo travel. I know Japan inside and out, and from different perspectives - as a resident, as a businessman, and as a traveler. My Japanese friends often say I'm more Japanese than they are. You can count on my knowledge and years of experience to guide you through what is truly important in your trip to Japan. Plan your Japan with me, your personal Japan travel guide.
