I wanted to take a moment to thank you for being part of the Komasa Collection journey. Two years ago, Komasa was born from a simple passion: connecting Travel Advisors with Asia-focused boutique tour partners, born from my own love of the region and my history in it. From my time spent working at a resort in Okinawa, studying tourism in Hong Kong, living in Singapore, and traveling everywhere in between, I've seen this industry from both sides — at Asia-focused tour partners, and alongside Travel Advisors building partnerships in New York. Komasa is where it all came together.
My goal has always been simple: to make the planning as seamless and considered as the experience itself. The relationships built over these two years are proof of that and nothing says it better than the Travel Advisors themselves:
"Sophia and the team at Komasa consistently exceed what American luxury travelers expect, opening doors and crafting experiences you won't find online... After exploring rural Japan with Mario, founder of Q-Inc, I realized there's still so much to discover — the Komasa way." — Grace Park, Indagare
"Sophia and her partners have become indispensable to how we plan Japan for our clients. It's a true partnership, and one I trust implicitly with our most discerning travelers." — Joanna Kuflik, Marchay
"Working with Sophia is wonderful — she's always available, brings a light, bright energy, and has excellent taste. I trust her implicitly." — Meredith Alexander, Fora
"In 15 years in luxury travel, Sophia is one of a very small handful of people I trust implicitly — her recommendations, her connections, her insights." — Rebecca MacGregor, Sense of Place Travel
Thank you for being here, and for trusting my partners with your clients' most memorable trips!
With gratitude,
Sophia
