Noriko Endo's Kindle Debut Tops Seven Amazon Categories
The rankings spread past the travel shelf, which suggests the book is being read as a book about choosing for yourself rather than as a destination guide.

Noriko Endo, who runs the overseas travel business Premium Travel Secretary, published her first e-book on Kindle on August 20, 2026. Titled I Wanted This Kind of Overseas Trip, it reached first place in seven Amazon e-book ranking categories, including Overseas Travel, Happiness, Motivation, Aging, and Humanities & Thought Reference.
Endo spent more than 20 years as a temp-agency tour conductor, accompanying overseas trips more than 350 times and over 7,000 people in total, before going independent under the trade name Premium Travel Secretary.
She wrote the book for people who want to travel but cannot take the first step, whether because of exchange rates, rising prices at home and abroad, or changes in physical strength and age. The book asks how to think, choose, and act on your own when information and options keep increasing.
