Je suis né et j'ai grandi ici, et j'ai eu la chance de voyager dans de nombreux pays étrangers. J'ai parfois voyagé avec des guides locaux et toutes ces expériences resteront gravées dans ma mémoire. Alors maintenant, je veux créer des souvenirs inoubliables ! Je parle anglais et espagnol (j'ai étudié à Miami, FIU), alors n'hésitez pas à me poser toutes vos questions sur le Japon. Bienvenue et j'espère que vous passerez un excellent séjour dans cette ville incroyable !
