Meet Riki

I was born and raised in Kyoto, but have been calling Australia home for a while now. And it's from here that I share my knowledge and passion for travel in Japan. If you would like to talk with me in person, I can meet Sydney travellers anytime at a place convenient for you. I also tour Australia from time to time to meet with travellers to talk more about my tours.
