NANAEDA Toshihiro （七枝　敏洋）

Located at the southernmost tip of the Japanese archipelago, Kagoshima is home to one World Cultural Heritage Site and two World Natural Heritage Sites. It has long been a contact point with the outside world, and during the 19th century, as Japan transitioned from feudalism to a modern nation, Kagoshima introduced modern industries and produced many great figures. I have worked in sales, customer service, and interpersonal relations at travel agencies, life insurance companies, and junior colleges in Japan. I am also a researcher in the tourism business. I love traveling and have visited 27 countries so far. I will never forget the kindness and hospitality that I have received over the world. I would like to help you take home wonderful memories. Kagoshima also has a wide variety of delicious foods, including green tea, Kuroge Wagyu beef, Satsuma chicken, Kurobuta pork, satsuma-age (fried fish cakes), silver-stripe herring, and karukan (Yam bun and sweet bean paste), as well as many local specialties, such as tinware and cut glass. Being a productive region, the prices are both affordable and fresh. Come see, eat, and shop to touch the current Kagoshima life.
