Who are we?
Message from CEO Kyoko Nagano
How do you do. I am a Japanese national who has lived overseas in countries
such as South Korea, Saudi Arabia, USA, Thailand for 17 years
as an expatriate together with my family.
Since I was little, I had opportunities to learn Japanese traditional culture
such as calligraphy, Nichibu (Japanese dance) Urasenke tea ceremony,
Ikebana and Sodo Japanese kimono.
It has been my passion to introduce beautiful Japanese culture
to people for many years.
After leaving my corporate job in 2018, I decided to dedicate myself
to support cultural teachers and launched mypal.jp to support them as an agent.
I have many available culture teachers so please send us an inquiry.
