About Mediator

My nickname is Olive. I'm a government-licensed interpreter and tour guide in English. I'm passionate about showing tourists from overseas hidden gems in Kanasai area and taking them nice restaurants providing tasty but reasonable dishes. My areas of expertise are history, stories, and cooking. If you are interested in Japanese folktales or modern novels of blockbuster hit, I'll tell you about the stories. If you are interested in Japanese food, let me show you how to cook it. I don't remember how many times I have taught foreigners how to cook Nikujyaga (a kind of stew containing meat and potato). Anyway, I promise to provide you a fun tour! Let's explore Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, and Kobe with me.
