Shoji

I live in Nagano prefecture, in Japan. Guiding people in the Japanese mountains is for me a great privilege.

I am a certified Ski and Mountain Guide, JMGA, (Japan Mountain Guide Association) as well as a member of the Japan Avalanche Network.

My guiding career evolved from my passion for ski mountaineering.
I worked as an avalanche course instructor for the first time in 2003. Since then, I have logged many years as a trekking and ski guide and avalanche instructor, and yes, I still like my job. I love what I do!

Please contact me if you are interested in a tour in Japan. See you in the mountains!
