KAZU-EH
Enjoy a 360° view that’s all yours! I guide visitors through the hidden charms of Shimane Prefecture, a place full of Japan’s untold attractions.
Hello! I am Kazu-eh, a local guide based in my hometown of Matsue in the scenic San’in region-one of Japan’s most peaceful and least-traveled areas. It’s truly off the beaten path, offering authentic rural charm far from the crowds. On my days off, I love strolling in kimono and soaking in the beauty of the countryside. I look forward to sharing unique, hands-on experiences with you. My motto is: Stay local, do local, feel local! Let’s discover Japan’s hidden gems together!
