About Sho
Hi, I’m Sho, the person behind Japan Travel, Solved. I was born and raised in Japan, and I have worked as a professional cook in restaurant kitchens as well as in management at a lodging facility.
I also spent two years living in Australia. During that time, I experienced how confusing everyday life can be when information is unfamiliar, scattered, or difficult to understand. That experience helps me see Japan from a traveler’s point of view.
Through my work in Japan, I have welcomed many guests from around the world and seen the different questions and problems they encounter. On this site, I combine that hands-on experience with information from reliable official sources. I especially share practical advice about food, dining, accommodation, and common travel problems.
My goal is to help you spend less time worrying and more time enjoying your trip to Japan.
