Wakana Takahashi

Well-Traveled Hometown Coordinator Revitalizing the Meguro River

Born in Ibaraki Prefecture

An event during her university years inspired Wakana to buy and renovate an old house in the village. Using her travel experience, she created an environment where visitors and the local residents can connect. Sometimes, rather than directly approaching the locals, you may need well-connected coordinators like Wakana to grease the wheels and quickly close the distance. If you catch Wakana while she cleans one of the hotel rooms, feel free to give her a shout.
