About Manami
Hi! My name is Manami. I am Japanese born and raised in Tokyo. I joined Rent a Local Friend because I always wished there was a service that tourists can easily rely on Japanese locals when they need urgent help. I studied one year in Germany and did an internship in Switzerland. I have a day job at an American IT firm, but I personally offer cultural tours and origami workshop for foreign visitors. If you book me in-person, I can taylor a few hours for you with things to do and places of interest. I am particulary good at finding nice cafes and bars, explaining Japanese culture and sharing hidden rules or social etiquette. If you book me online, I will be your virtual assistant to help you survive and enjoy Tokyo. You can ask me when you get lost at train stations, when you can't find your accomodation, when you become sick or when you don't know where to have vegetarian/vegan food. Looking forward to connect with you!
About Kimono style clothes in Shinjuku
I love kimono but it takes time to dress up. So my alternatives are one pieces, T-shirts and jackets with kimono style designs. They are very easy to wear and comfortable as they use good textiles. Most importantly, they are sold at reasonable prices. I will take you to the shop, which line ups this kind of clothes as well as various Japanese traditional stuff.
