Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile.　Japan Travel Concierge | EN / KR / JP Itinerary Design · Restaurant Reservations · Multilingual Content Nagoya-based | Former Hotel Professional ────────────────────────────────────── Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile. I'm a Japan-based travel concierge with a background in hotel hospitality. The care and attention to detail I developed during my hotel years shapes how I approach every request — anticipating what matters to you before you have to ask, and making sure your time in Japan feels effortless. I'd love to help make your trip truly memorable. ────────────────────────────────────── WHAT I CAN HELP WITH ────────────────────────────────────── ✦ Custom travel itineraries (1–14+ days) — tailored to your pace, interests, and budget ✦ Restaurant reservations across Japan and Korea — including phone-only venues with no English interface ✦ Local recommendations — dining, sightseeing, and cultural experiences beyond the usual tourist routes ✦ Hotel, restaurant, and activity suggestions — curated for your travel style ✦ Transportation planning and budget optimization ✦ On-trip support via WhatsApp or LINE ✦ Beautifully organized travel documents — delivered as PDF or Google Doc ────────────────────────────────────── AREAS I KNOW WELL ────────────────────────────────────── Nagoya · Takayama · Kyoto · Osaka · Shizuoka Living in Japan means I provide accurate, up-to-date local knowledge — hidden gems, seasonal considerations, and the kind of detail that only comes from actually being here. ────────────────────────────────────── LANGUAGES ────────────────────────────────────── Japanese / English / Korean / Chinese (translation support) I communicate clearly and professionally with international clients, so nothing gets lost between cultures. ────────────────────────────────────── A LITTLE ABOUT MY BACKGROUND ────────────────────────────────────── Having worked in the hotel industry in Japan, I understand what genuine hospitality looks like — and I bring that same standard to every client. I've handled reservations at quiet local restaurants in Nagoya and Shizuoka that don't appear in travel guides, secured tables at celebrated venues in Kyoto, and arranged bookings at Michelin-starred restaurants in Seoul — communicating directly in Japanese and Korean on behalf of my clients. I genuinely enjoy helping people have experiences they'll look back on with a smile. That's what this work is about for me. ────────────────────────────────────── 📍 Nagoya, Japan 🌐 Japanese / English / Korean / Chinese ⏱ Response within 4 hours (JST business hours) 📅 Available now — happy to discuss your plans
