    Very special

    We were welcomed by our delightful teacher, Saori, who spoke good English and guided us carefully through the technique of using the calligraphy brush to make calligraphy letters. We wanted particular names and she wrote them for us to copy and practice, so that we could get them right on paper, before we wrote them on our final board. Afterwards, we stopped at the attached coffee shop, which we highly recommend for tea, coffee and cake!
    Response from Host, Aug 2023
    Thank you for your wonderful comment. It was an honor to be able to help you draw your own work as a memory of your trip. We are happy to hear that you were satisfied. You also stopped by our cafe. Thank you. We are always waiting for you in our town, Yanaka. Please visit us in different seasons also!
    A very worthwhile and surprisingly moving experience !

    遠くの国から日本に、東京に、そして東京の小さな街「YANAKA」にお越しいただきありがとうございました。あなたの書道の作品を眺めて、東京の書道を時々思い出してください。平和な気持ちになってください。 そんな皆さんが遠い所に居ると思うと私たちも平和な気持ちになれますので。 from Saori.
    Gentilissimi
