Shiitake Creative Aims to Take Sustainable Travel to Next Level in Japan

How can we get sustainable travel to a higher standard in Japan? One way is by promoting the best destinations, products and services through contests, social media campaigns and awards- that is the concept of the SHIITAKE CREATIVE team.

Ally Hongo, Seiya Hongo and David Jaskiewicz have launched SHIITAKE CREATIVE and the Japan Travel Awards. They are also running Japanese crowdfunding campaign for a book REMARKABLE PLACES JAPAN. Watch the video of our talk here.

This is a wonderful chat with these three innovators who met doing work in Media and Content companies in Japan. Inspiring to hear about their inclusive, accessible and sustainable travel business philosophy. Great ideas to better promote off-the-beaten-path destinations worth visiting around Japan which are also better for local people and the environment.
