About Us

We are the students of Kyoto University of Foreign Studies, Japan. We have been researching Japanese migration to Canada under the guidance of Prof. Sachiko Kawakami, particularly focusing on emigrants from Mio, Wakayama, Japan. Since 2018, we have started working on this website for those who hope to visit Mio to find their family roots .
