Yama
I’m a huge ramen lover! I feel as if I’m in heaven when I eat a heavy ramen while drinking beer after work. It’s been a large number of ramen noodles I’ve had already! I, the ramen lover, recommend the best ramen from among all the ramen I’ve had!
Vanessa
Nice to meet you all, my name is Vanessa. The first time I came to Kyoto I was drawn into by Kyoto’s food culture and traditional crafts. As a Sharing Kyoto writer, I hope I can pass on to you information about the appeal and ways of enjoying Kyoto. I hope you will enjoy sightseeing in Kyoto!
Yumemi
Hello everyone! I’m Yumemi and my hobby is going to shrines and temples. I love the shrines and temples of Kyoto so much that I visit at least one per week! There are many shrines and temples that are not yet that famous but are still very beautiful and nice. I want to write about shrines and temples that are not yet on guidebooks and their history! I would be so happy if you’d read my articles when you plan your travels to Kyoto!
Miyabi
Hello! I’m Miyabi. I’m born and bred in Kyoto and am a lover of matcha obsessed Uji. In my free time, I like to wander Kyoto. While I don’t go to major tourist spots so can’t tell you much about them, I know a ton of quiet, Kyoto-esque hole-in-the-wall spots that don’t see a lot of people!
Shin
Hi, I’m Shin!I absolutely love world history and culture and am what you might call a “History Geek.” While I was born and lived in Kyoto my entire life, I love traveling overseas and have been to 4 continents and over 30 countries so far.At Sharing Kyoto, I hope to highlight the greatest parts of Kyoto from the perspective of both a Kyoto native & a world traveler.

Vinny
Hi, I'm Vinny from New Zealand.Although not a Kyoto native, I've now called this place home for over two years, and I think it's fair to say I know my way around pretty well. Initially drawn in by the beautiful temples, shrines and abundance of greenery, I now love this city for its vibrant underground art scene, chill cafes, cool people, and fixation with curry and coffee.
Yoko
Hello! My name is Yoko.My favorite place is Ohara area of Kyoto which famous Sanzenin Temple is located. It’s a very quiet place overflowing with nature. I can relax very much whenever I look at the scenery inside the temple.
Miya
I like eating Japanese cuisine in Kyoto. The food is not only delicious but also looks beautiful. I can feel the positive attitude the chefs have towards providing the best for customers whenever I try restaurants in Kyoto.
