On this episode of the Small Business Japan Podcast I talk with entrepreneur and Kyushu travel specialist Simon Gilbert about how he has somehow navigated his businesses through many rough waters over the years and how he and his wife have built a business around their passion for the Kyushu area.

Simon is from the UK but headed east 25 years ago. This is his third stint in Japan and he loves living in Kyushu. Simon and his Japanese wife own and manage Kyushu Journeys. This is an inbound travel agency offering travel planning services for visitors to Kyushu. Prior to this Simon managed and part-owned a dive center in Indonesia.
