Kisun spent 17 years with a British financial institution in Tokyo and London before founding a company in Tokyo that provided domestic support services for foreign expatriates.

After leaving the company in 2020, he returned to his native Kyushu and dedicated himself to exploring the region’s history, culture, and tourism potential. He traveled extensively throughout the island, writing travel essays and newspaper columns while hosting more than 50 groups of visitors.

In 2024, he founded Sennen no Tabi (A Thousand-Year Journey), a travel design company dedicated to creating authentic cultural experiences and fostering meaningful international exchange.

Drawing on trusted relationships with local communities, artisans, cultural practitioners, and business owners, he provides exclusive access to people, places, and traditions rarely available through conventional tourism. His journeys are designed to offer travelers a deeper understanding of Kyushu and Japan through personal encounters, cultural immersion, and genuine local connections.
