Hello, I'm Rise Komura, born and raised in Nishio City. Let me share why I started Rise’s House. In 2021, I was fortunate to receive a scholarship for studying abroad at the University of Michigan in the US. At the Japan Student Association orientation, I was amazed to see 200 attendees, expressing their dream of visiting Japan. This inspired me to think about how I could offer enjoyable experiences to my international friends at Rise’s House.
