Oct.2017 : Gion evening tour for a solo traveller from New Orleans. As I was explaining "Geisha" dancing, I found out she had a background in Jazz dance and had strong interest in both traditional and experimental Japanese dance. It was enjoyable to talk about a choreographer both of us admired. She missed out Gion a year ago, I was happy to fill her missing piece of her trip to Japan.

May, 2018: I guided a group of three from Canada to Fushimi-Inari Shrine, Tofukuji Zen temple and the Gion. In the Gion we were incredibly fortunate to see a maiko making the rounds of the area, greeting clients and local people, as part of her ceremonial debut. It was a very rare moment and the perfect opportunity to learn more about Geisha culture in Kyoto.
