JOURNAL HOUSE provides coordination and research support for international media covering Japan.
Founded by travel and culture writer Kazumi Serizawa, we help global storytellers uncover authentic perspectives — from major cities to remote regions.
As working journalists, we understand what editors and readers value.

– English briefing materials for editors
– Bilingual escort and interpretation with cultural context
– Flexible support for shoots, interviews, and location visits
– Photographer / videographer arrangement
