Miya Nishio

I currently run a volunteering organization called FROGs that travels around Japan to bring English speaking opportunities to students in local high schools (frogstokyo.jp). Our main objective is to bring people from all over the world together and work towards achieving a common goal, but we also enjoy introducing people to “hidden gems” around Japan; beautiful and amazing places in this country that are worth visiting, but not yet well known. As a result, I’ve seen a lot of places in Japan and I’ve taken lots of people around! However, Hiroshima is still one of my favorite prefectures and a lot of people seem to agree; I don’t think I know a place with food this good, a city this beautiful, people this kind, and nature this flourishing. And on an even better note, my grandmother has lived in Hiroshima for her whole life, so I am aware of all the best places here – I am excited and grateful to have this opportunity to share these places with you!
