About me

I joined Japanspecialist in 2014 but have more than 20 years of experience in the travel industry. I specialise in Far East travel and have sold individual tours for singles, couples and families to China, Korea and Japan.

I lived for a while in Kyoto, where I worked as a tour leader. I still have a special love for this particular city with the well-preserved buildings and memories of their ancient culture and history, which I am very interested in. At the same time, I know there's so much beautiful nature on the outskirts of the city, like Mount Hiei, located on Lake Biwa, where you can simply enjoy the peace between the temples.

I enjoy talking to our customers to ensure their next trip is rich and full of experiences in culture, history and nature, with a few of my own local insights thrown in.

Fantastic! I had never used an online consultancy service before in my life and the whole process turned out to be so smooth! Thank you Bjarke for all your help.

Really great service. All my questions were answered swiftly and in perfect detail. I would certainly recommend that anyone heading to Japan arrange a consultation before they make any bookings!
