Let me introduce myself.

・Name: Hirokane ISHIKAKI (1967～)
・Birthplace: Shingu City, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan・Grown up in Shizuoka City, Japan・Had lived in Kyoto, Osaka, Tokyo, Nagoya and Numazu (Izu area)

・Overseas travel experience: Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Thailand, thePhilippines, Palau, the Maldives, Australia, New Zealand, Guam, Saipan, Bali,Hawaii,
Spain, Ireland, Scotland(scotch whisky), England, the Marshall Islands,(scuba diving)
Germany (for ITB Berlin), France

After graduating from Kyoto Sangyo University, I worked at Japan FinanceCorporation for 20 years in six different locations. I like all the places where
I lived. On the other hand, by leaving Shizuoka for 24 years, I noticed how
Shizuoka is a wonderful place: Mt.Fuji, blue ocean, delicious sea food,green tea, warm hearted people. I started thinking that I would like towelcome more and more travelers to Shizuoka from all over the world.
That’s why I started this business.
I am looking forward to cooperate with you.
We are a small and young company but can take speedy action.
Of course, I can arrange also mega cities. Please feel free to ask me anything.
Thank you.
