Hello/Konnichiha, Welcome to the beautiful Ogasawara islands.
I am Shunsuke, the lead guide of ST tour. I've lived on Chichijima(the main islandin the Ogasawara islands group)for the past 10 years. Prior to this I became a scuba diving instructor in 2006 and have worked Australia, Guam and Fiji before moving to Chichijima in 2010.
I have a strong background in enviromental protection and I am curretly engaged in the protection of Albatross on Keta-island(an uninhabited island of Ogasawara). We are lucky to have all three northen hemisphere albatross spicies breeding on the Ogasawara islands. I also study native incects(such as endemic dragonflies and tiger beetle)and help out with efforts for the removal of invasive species.
I love festival and surfing, and achieved a longitudinal profile between Chichijima and Hahajima where located 50KM south by SUP.
I am not a native speaker of English, However I learned English through working as a diving instructor in various countries. I will guide you the island with 'Omotenasi-heart', the Japanese spirit of hospitality.
