- City of Kyoto Visitors Host -

Nov.2017: I took a couple from Switzerland to Zen meditation and tea ceremony experience and Gion area. During the meditation session, I helped the guests communicate with a monk. The husband mentioned a flow of movements about golf-swing, which got the monk well into the topic and created philosophical conversation. Said the monk, " You can do a meditation anytime anywhere".

Oct.2017:I took a lovely couple who has traveled internationally quite a lot to the Kyoto Imperial Palace and Ryoanji Temple. Although they already had a good understanding of Japan, they were eager to discover more and deeper. I was happy to answer all the questions.Thanks to the rain,we were lucky enough to experience, I would say, the serenest calm at the Zen garden at Ryoanji temple at dusk.
