Hello, I'm Ayu. We are a family with 4 years old boy moved to Naoshima from Tokyo in 2024. I love movies and traveling, and whenever I see a place that interests me, whether it's domestic or overseas, I go there. I love interacting with the culture. I also love retro atmosphere and vibes, so I decorate my room with vintage furniture. I hope you like it. If you have time, let's have a beer or couple of coffee together.
