About Host



Hi! I’m Miona. I love traveling, sports, and trying new food from different cultures. Living in the U.S. for over 3 years made me realize that many Japanese dishes overseas are very different from what we actually eat at home in Japan. That’s why I wanted to become a host. I want travelers to experience real Japanese home cooking. I live with my 75-year-old grandmother, who has spent more than 50 years cooking every meal by hand, even making sauces and dressings from scratch. Her cooking is warm, healthy, and full of love. We welcome guests into our home to share authentic food, family stories, and a true Japanese home atmosphere.
