Hi, I’m Chie – born and raise in Japan and now joyfully rooted in sunny Florida for over 10 years, where I live with my wonderful husband and our two adorable kitties. As a travel/life blogger from Japan, I’m a lover of new places, fresh perspectives, and all things travel!

So far, I’ve explored over 10 countries (and still counting!), chasing beauty, culture, and those unforgettable moments that fill the soul.

Travel Apothecary is my happy place to share travel stories, feel-good tips, and inspiration for mindful living from around the world.

I’m so glad you’re here—let’s adventure together!
