Multilingual Support in Japan – Medical Help, City Life Assistance & Friendly Guiding Hi! I’m a native Japanese speaker based in Tokyo, and I help non-Japanese speakers with everything from hospital visits and city paperwork to exploring what Japan has to offer. Whether you’re here short-term, long-term, or on base—I’d love to support you in a warm, clear, and dependable way. I’m a registered nurse with a background in medical communication, but I’ve also helped many people simply get through the everyday stuff in Japan—things that can be surprisingly confusing if you’re not familiar with the language or systems. 🏥 Medical & Daily Life Support I used to work at a mental health clinic where I handled English phone and email inquiries from patients who couldn’t speak Japanese. I also interpreted between doctors and patients during appointments when needed. Outside of that, I’ve helped people: • Go to the hospital and understand what the doctor said • Register at the city office after arriving in Japan • Get from the airport to the hospital during a family emergency and find a hotel nearby • Translate and explain public documents like residence forms or credit card applications in plain, easy-to-understand English I don’t just translate—I make sure people actually understand what’s going on and feel okay with it. That’s what really matters to me. 👣 Tour Guiding (Kansai-based experience, now in Tokyo) When I was a student, I often guided foreign friends around my hometown: Kobe, Osaka, and Kyoto. I planned efficient and fun tours that included local spots not found in guidebooks, based on what each person wanted to see or learn. Now that I live in Tokyo, I haven’t done guiding here professionally yet—but I’d love to do the same kind of thing for visitors or residents who want to experience the Tokyo area in a friendly, local way. 💻 Also Open to Remote Work I’m a full-time freelancer with a very flexible schedule (early mornings or late nights are okay too). I’m also interested in virtual assistant work, translation, or admin support. While I don’t have formal experience in those areas yet, I’m comfortable with technology, enjoy learning new things (I’m even studying programming as a hobby), and I’m careful with details. I’d be happy to try something new if I can be helpful! 💡 Languages & Certifications • Japanese: Native • English: Business level (TOEIC 870) • Chinese: Basic understanding • Licensed Registered Nurse (Japan) • BLS Certified If you need support in Japan—whether it’s understanding paperwork, getting through a hospital visit, or exploring the city—I’d be glad to help in any way I can. Thanks for reading, and feel free to reach out anytime 🌸
