I think I was 14, I needed a job. I came here. George and Irene were very lovely, they were the owners before they sold this place, and I just never left.
What are your hobbies and interests?
I like taking photos - outfit photos. It's very good around here because there’s trees and beautiful cherry blossoms. You've got all the backdrops you need, and the mountains and the snow. I design clothes as well.
What do you like about the area?
The scenery I have to say - it's just beautiful. I love waking up and I look out, the sun’s on my face. You don't really get that anywhere else like in Australia. It's a little bubble we live in here – it’s beautiful, I love it.
Where would you take visitors to showcase the area?
I'd probably go through the main street. I love op shopping, so I'll probably take them op shopping as well. And then we’d go to a view spot. The view spots are probably the best things around here, I reckon.
Is there anything you would change about the area?
Maybe a 24 hour shop. I don't know if there'll be enough people up that late. Not a 7-Eleven, but something like that. Just quick food or quick drinks. Maybe more men’s clothing shops as well. There are a lot of women’s clothing shops but no men's really.
