TOSHIYUKI (TOSHI) KIDA
Toshi was born in 1954 in a small village in a northern corner of Nagano Prefecture, Japan. He grew up in Sekiyama, a neighboring village in the foothills of Mt. Myoko in Niigata Prefecture. From an early age, he had an interest in travel. He spent countless hours playing with the globe, examining an atlas, and imagining the life of strange people in far-away lands.
In 1970, while still a freshman at high school, his interest in travel ripened into a life-long passion. During the summer vacation, his beloved geography teacher traveled to Europe and brought back many exciting and fascinating stories of his journey and adventures, especially the journey on Trans-Siberian trains from Vladivostok to Moscow. Toshi readily admits that he was hooked for life, then and there.
In 1975, Toshi took two year sabbatical from economics study at Chuo University in Tokyo and set out for his own adventures; he traveled to Israel and spent six months on kibbutz, then to Spain where he lived in Madrid for eight months working as a sous-chef in a Chinese restaurant and finally to Montreal, Canada for nearly ten months. After graduating with a BA in economics from the university in 1978, Toshi moved to Canada permanently and has lived in Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver. He has continued to travel and has visited over 200 cities in 25 countries in America, Europe and Asia.
In 2013, after a chance discovery of his diabetic condition, Toshi decided to retire from jewellery retail sales and management and pursue his dream in travel as a guide. In two short years since then, he has successfully guided tour groups of up to fifteen people to Nakasendo Way and Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trails in Japan more than a dozen times.
In the off season, you might find Toshi in Washington DC, USA. Lately he has been spending his time volunteering at DC Central Kitchen, Freer Gallery of Art and Serve DC, and he sometimes volunteers at the Library of Congress.
Life has come to an almost complete circle for Toshi and he eagerly confesses that he has never been feeling so excited, happy and alive. Life is grand as he likes to say, and he recently traveled on the Trans-Siberian trains to complete his life-long dream at last.
