New correspondent Hanes One Year (Guide Event Edition)


Hello. This is Hanes, an active correspondent who has changed a new correspondent.
I would like to introduce some of the correspondent's activities through guides and events that I experienced as correspondent, following the previous "One Year of New Correspondent Hanes (Blog / Radio Edition)".

Bus Guide (Marugoto Museum, Chuo-ku)

At the Marugoto Museum in Chuo-ku held in November, I took a bus twice and guided me as a newcomer.
The boarding time is a little longer than the university lecture, and in addition to events and access information, preparations are made repeatedly to convey the gourmet and location information of Chuo-ku, as well as the invisible history and culture of Chuo-ku. It is impressive that I came.

"Knowing the real thing, Edo town walk tour" guide

"Knowing the real thing, Edo town walk tour" Guide New correspondent Hanes 1 year (guide event edition)


After finishing the guide training, I provided a guide at Tsukiji (Japanese) and tour support in Ginza (English).
I have had a lot of guide experience so far in the facility and I'm not from Tokyo, so I was honestly anxious.

However, because of the desire to "I want our customers to come again!", Walking the course every morning before going to work and practicing guides!
As a result, we were able to increase our knowledge, prepare multiple courses tailored to the needs of our customers, understand the time required for each location, and prepare for production with plenty of time.◎

After actually finishing the first guide, I would like to clarify what I want to continue and points of reflection, and I would like to improve hospitality and guide content for another opportunity *

Tour support is in charge of reception, guidance, hearing, etc. in English, and from seniors of guides who are familiar with hospitality using English, there are many things such as appropriate English expressions and ideas from overseas perspectives I was able to do it happily while learning.
We can expect an increase in the number of tourists visiting Japan for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, so I would like to make use of what I have learned here on other occasions. ^^

Special events for correspondents

This is an event held for correspondent applicants rather than activities, where you can visit places that are not usually open to the public and appreciate traditional performing arts.
It was the first time for me to meet other correspondents, and I still remember it impressively.

From the common point of being the same correspondent, I naturally felt close to each other, and I was able to talk variously while meeting for the first time.
I look forward to interacting with many correspondents this year through events and other events.

What is the composition of correspondents?

Well, I've been focusing on correspondent activities so far, but I'm probably in the reader...."I'm worried about what kind of people correspondents are made up of!"

For such a person, in a single word what the newcomer felt in a year, "The correspondents are surely made up of more diverse members than you think."

To introduce the features in a little more detail, it is as follows.
①Beyond the boundaries of humanities
 History, culture, and sightseeing are the image of the humanities, but there are many barbari sciences!
②A wide range of age groups
③Various places of origin
 Of course, there are people who were born and raised in Chuo-ku, but there are many people in Tokyo.
④Various backgrounds and hobbies

And if you have a correspondent who is particularly interested in, please check the profile of the correspondent (author) on this blog after renewal.

Towards Activities in FY2019

Looking back on the year as a new correspondent, I was taken care of by a very large number of people, including the Chuo-ku Tourism Association, correspondents, Chuo FM, interviews, events and tour-related people.
The correspondents have more rewarding activities than they expected, and I think that it is only thanks to this activity that I was able to spend a fulfilling year ^^
Not only did I deepen my insight into Chuo-ku, but I also studied a lot as a member of society.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you. Thank you very much!

In fiscal 2019, the second year, we will not forget the beginning, just like "newcomers", and aim to contribute to the community through the correspondent blog, (2) further exchange with correspondents, and (3) expand the range of activities.
We are still inexperienced, but we look forward to your continued support*.
