Hi, I’m Mika!

I’m Japanese and have traveled in the United States, Poland, Egypt, the UAE, Vietnam, Taiwan, and South Korea.

Those experiences showed me that everyday things don’t always work the way you expect when you travel to another country.

If you have a question about traveling in Japan, feel free to ask me.
