On this episode of Voices in Japan, Ben and Burke are joined by Ido Gabay, who is the founder of Hokkaido Nature Tours. They are a Sapporo-based award winning company that specializes in private tours in Japan's largest prefecture, Hokkaido. Our conversation with Ido provides an intimate look at his background starting from the time his family left Israel when he was young, then growing up in the United States, the factors that fueled his desire to start traveling as a backpacker through over 65 countries(!), teaching English in different parts of Asia, and finally settling in Hokkaido. The challenges along the way together with inspiration from his family have helped to strengthen his conviction that people should do what they love in life.
