ABOUT US
TORIMICH (通り道, “a path through”) is a media project that lets you step into the daily work of local shops and of people devoted to a single craft, through physical visits, and through film. Delivering the atmosphere of that place, as purely as possible: that is what TORIMICH does.

Current: Drawing on my background in agricultural business and tourism, I uncover rare, still-unknown local experiences and shape them into TORIMICH.
How TORIMICH Began
At 20, an injury led me to step away from competition.
After that, I began spending time at a nearby farm, talking with the farmers, touching the soil, and working with my hands.
What I felt there was this: places where people truly meet one another, where sensibility quietly opens up, hold a value that is hard to find anywhere else. That realization is the starting point of TORIMICH.
In June 2026, I began working as TORIMICH.
GURURI and WAZANOHITO
TORIMICH introduces local shops and the people who pass on their crafts, through two entrances.
GURURI focuses on the shops around Hibarigaoka worth noticing, and gives you a reason to wander the town.
WAZANOHITO focuses on the people who pass on a craft, and opens a way for you to meet them in person, at their classes, workshops, and performances.
MISSION
Get to know the shops in your town. Go and meet the people who pass on a craft.
The time spent face to face, talking with one another, quietly enriches the everyday lives of those who visit. And each of those steps returns to the community, as life in its shops and classrooms.
TORIMICH aims to create a cycle in which that richness flows both to the people who visit and to the town itself.
