I've been living in Osaka city and running my own business such as a guesthouse and a cafe & bar for a long time. I can say that I am an expert of "Sento" (public bathhouse) and I am very confident to introduce and share all my of my experiences and knowledge of this culture with you!

If you would like to visit out cafe and bar then you can find more information on our website below.
