Travel Proud. Travel Free.
Hi lovely travelers,
I'm Serge, originally from the Netherlands, and Japan has been my home for over three decades now. What brought me here initially was love, and that love has kept me rooted in this beautiful country ever since. Along the way, I discovered another love: Japan itself. Following my stint as a radio jockey and TV presenter, where I co-hosted a dedicated program for the Nagoya Grampus soccer team, I transitioned to a behind-the-scenes role as a media fixer for international media outlets.
Though my job as media fixer, I've been traveling and working throughout all of Japan, exploring unique places and meeting lots of very interesting people.
I would love to share and make you, my dear traveler, experience these places as well. Visiting and getting a tour at Japan's oldest traditional vinegar maker, or experience and taste at a traditional "katsuo bushi" bonito flake maker, or do you prefer to visit some old local shrines or temples. with no-one around you, except for the crickets and trees. Maybe you just want a friend to bring you to your desired locations and interpret and be at your beck and call 24 hours (like I do for the media). If you're looking for flexibility (time, places. transport), you won't find a better match than me.
My work as a fixer taught me a valuable lesson: the key to traveling together successfully, lies in a blend of humor, professionalism, and adaptability.
Casual, energetic, open, humorous and open minded. I suit my tours to your wishes, you tell me your interests, and I will create a tour according to those....
This may not be the answer you expect, but to be honest, I don't care who I guide. 99.9% of the time, I've had a great time with my guests whether they were straight, LGBTQ+, old or young. Everybody is welcome on my tour and most people never felt they had to hide their sexual, political or religious preference. I love people, I care about their minds, spirit and heart, once you get in my car you'll notice my respect to you and my complete absence of any prejudice.
