Shoko Nakano

I was born in Gunma, Japan, which is located 2 hours north of Tokyo, surrounded by the beautiful mountains and hot springs. I moved to Tokyo to start career. I first started working in Tokyo as a systems engineer and traveling was only something I would reward myself with. Nevertheless, something left me unsatisfied. I wanted to start a new career and do something that I was passionate about. I left Tokyo in 2012 and studied Travel and Tourism in Toronto, Canada. All the places that I visited have made an impact on me and have provided me with experiences that I will never forget. Climbing Mt. Fuji overnight, flying around Everest in Nepal, visiting a glacier in Iceland, catching a glimpse of a Tasmanian devil in Australia, or relaxing at the beach in Hainan Island or staring at the most incredible night sky in Queenstown. I will help bring you these kinds of wonderful experiences.

Japanese fireworks are handmade by professionals with a special license. Visit the fireworks competition!

I was a train geek, getting on a small local train, in Queenstown New Zealand, was the purpose of the trip. I stayed at a small family run B&B and met wonderful locals. One of the locals was a friend of the train driver and he took me to the train and let me sit down in the driver seat and pull the horn. I was so excited and my dream came true more than I ever dreamt. At night, the sky was filled with stars and that was most beautiful sky I have ever seen in my life.
