日本自助旅程 My Self-Guided Trip to Japan - Himiko was incredibly kind and welcoming, making me feel warmth and friendliness even while I was traveling in a foreign country. As it was my first time visiting Asakusa, I was a little nervous at first. However, chatting with Himiko quickly put me at ease. Her enthusiasm and positive energy made me feel as if I were spending time with a friend. This was truly an unforgettable experience for me, and I sincerely hope I'll have the opportunity to visit and experience it again in the future. Thank you for the wonderful memories! Himiko非常親切,讓我在異國中也能感受到友善跟溫暖,第一次來到淺草有點緊張,但在跟Himiko聊天過程中感受到熱情和活力,就想朋友一樣,對我來說是份難忘的回憶,希望日後還有機會再次前往體驗!
