Hey there! I'm Nadine, your friendly local host in Kyoto. I love exploring Kyoto on foot or cycling through its enchanting backstreets. That's how I stumble on hidden gems like temples, shrines, and breathtaking natural wonders. Of course, I can't forget about the Japanese cuisine! Indulging in delectable bento boxes and enjoying local drinks while sitting by the picturesque Kamogawa River is pure bliss. I know Kyoto like the back of my hand, especially the areas surrounding the Imperial Palace, Gion, and Kiyomizu, and the lively Kawaramachi neighborhood. My knowledge of Kyoto's historical and traditional places is just the cherry on top. Whether immersing yourself in serene nature or exploring the city's hidden corners, I'll ensure you have a fantastic experience. Looking forward to meeting you and embarking on this incredible journey together!
