Hello! I'm Kazuari from Okibura.

The place where I actually live right now. That’s “Yomitan Village” in Okinawa Prefecture.
It's about an hour's drive from Naha. While it's famous for being Japan's most populous village, now that I actually live here, there are moments every day when I think, "I'm so glad I chose this place."

I was interviewed by "CREAL," a real estate and lifestyle media outlet, about my beloved hometown!

In this article, we’ll cover things you won’t find in tourist guides"The True Charm of Yomitan"...and speaks candidly about it.

・What are your impressions of “life in Yomitan” since moving here?
・It's Not Just the Classics! My Favorite "Local Eats" That I Actually Go to All the Time
・Secret beaches and scenic spots with few tourists
・Real-world advice on “What You Absolutely Must Know” Before Moving or Traveling

And so on—the content really captures the essence of Yomitan Village.

If you're interested in moving to Okinawa or want to enjoy a more laid-back Okinawa experience next time, I highly recommend reading this!

Thank you to everyone on the CREAL editorial team for putting together such a wonderful article!
If you see him in Yomitan Village, please say hello.
