Hi! I’m Yuki — a guide who loves connecting with people from around the world. I’m really passionate about discovering local food spots, cosmetics, and spending my free time scuba diving or playing board games with friends. I’d love to show you around my city through a local’s eyes — not just the famous landmarks, but also cozy cafés, local markets, and hidden places that most tourists miss. Let’s explore, chat, and enjoy the local flavours together! 🌿
