Rise Japanese Views

Hi, I’m Rise.
I share Japanese perspectives on everyday life, society, and culture in a simple, down-to-earth way.

I run Rise’s House, a small, experience-focused guesthouse in Nishio, my hometown in Japan.
Nishio is one of Japan’s leading producing areas for matcha and eel, and it’s a quiet, local place that most travelers never see.
Conversations with guests from around the world often inspire the topics on this channel.

If you’re curious about Japan beyond the tourist view, you’re very welcome here.
