I'm Scott, a local host in Kyoto with a deep appreciation for the quiet beauty of this historic city. I love early morning walks along the Kamo River, exploring temple gardens, and observing the subtle elegance of Kyoto’s homes and neighborhoods. Y ou’ll often find me in museums or strolling peaceful backstreets away from the crowds. I know Higashiyama and the Imadegawa area well, and I’m always happy to share thoughtful insights into Japanese family life and work culture. If you're looking for a calm, meaningful way to experience Kyoto, I’d be honored to guide you.
