Hi, I’m Toshi
Hi, I’m Toshi
I’ve lived in Nagoya for 64 years
I speak English, Japanese
I am a owner of a company.
Hi, I’m Toshihito, and Nagoya is my playground! Born and raised here, I love the city's perfect balance—big enough for excitement but not as crowded as Tokyo or Osaka. You’ll often find me exploring Showa retro bars and restaurants, indulging in Nagoya’s soul food, or hiking the city’s highest mountain. I’m also a big fan of Nagoya Castle and know all the hidden gems, from Ghibli Park in Nagakute to Inuyama Castle’s old town. Whether it’s the best retro spots or the quiet rural corners, I’ve got Nagoya covered!

Todo bien para ser en inglés. Pudimos ir por el subway y sirvió de mucha ayuda. Los templos bien y todo lo demas. Everything was fine considering it was in English. We were able to use the subway, which was very helpful. The temples were good, and everything else was great too.

Our guide Toshi gave us a wonderful overview of Nagoya. He was knowledgeable, patient, and we did not feel rushed.
