Hello!

Thanks for dropping by.

I’m Mel, a Canadian working in professional services in this big city Tokyo. I clock in hours serving corporations on financial “stuff”, and I often receive inquiries from friends and family seeking advice on personal and business finances.

I want to gather and share information on money-related matters in Japan. I hope the information I organized can provide a few helpful tips and hacks for those in Japan trying to navigate the complex systems around just simply living in Tokyo.

I am a licensed CPA, but I am also stretched on time with my double hat as a working mother. I cannot commit to providing professional services, but I am happy to answer questions or provide support where I can. Please feel free to contact me! Dozo!
