I love my hometown in Oita prefecture, but because of work, I ended up living in Tokyo. 

At one point, when I was finally able to go to Oita on business, the hostel that I stayed at was incredibly innovative, and I was able to have stimulating exchanges with the people from all across Asia who were staying there. 

This made me think about how there are an increasing number of hotels being built, and I began to think that I also wanted to use my skills to take part in this industry! I used Omotenashi HR to start a business in Oita. I want to brighten not only my career, but also Oita and the entire Kyushu region!

I definitely wouldn’t have thought of this in Tokyo.
