Hello, my name is Cindy and I am a Japan Room Finder staff member working in Tokyo. I relocated to Japan after graduating from De La Salle University in the Philippines.
Growing up I have always had an interest in Japanese culture, first starting with anime and manga, then eventually transitioning to idols. After being into idols for most of high school, I dreamed of studying in Japan as a goal for university.
In my junior year in university, I went on an exchange program to Sophia University. It was there that I progressed in my language studies and decided that working in Japan would be my next goal. After completing my exchange program, I returned home, slaved away to finish my thesis, and graduated. Soon after, I received a job offer and took a half-gap year before flying to Tokyo once more.
My first job was at a media company that was focused on services for women. Being constantly surrounded by people extremely aware of their appearance made me come to like beauty and fashion much more. I realized that despite having a wealth of information, most Japanese products and media did not have English translations or active discussion forums for sharing reviews and opinions.
Along with my strong passion for house hunting, I hope to write articles for women, men, and non-binary people who have an interest in beauty and fashion. Hopefully through my articles, someone can be inspired to try out something new as well! よろしくお願いします。
