Hey there! I'm Marwan, your friendly local host here in Kobe. I've always been drawn to the amazing diversity of food that you can find tucked away in its cozy corners. Whether you're craving traditional Japanese cuisine or something more international, Kobe's got you covered. You can usually find me soaking up the laid-back atmosphere of Merikan Park or mingling with locals and fellow travelers at the international bars dotted around the city. I am also well acquainted with nearby areas like Osaka, Kyoto, and Himeji, so if you're up for a day trip, I've got you covered. I've got all the insider tips on the best food joints, nightlife hotspots, chill hangouts, shopping gems, and of course, the coolest bars in town. So whether you're here for a quick visit or planning to stick around for a while, let's make your time in Kobe unforgettable!
