Memoirs of a Geisha

Hey everyone, hope you had an amazing weekend and Mother's Day! Sorry it's been a while since my last post. I've been crazy busy with leaving Japan and getting settled back in Canada and school!

Today's post is a little special as I am wearing a traditional Japanese kimono. During my last weekend in Kyoto I got dressed up in this beautiful attire and walked the streets of Gion and Yasaka Jinja, a Shinto shrine. Gion is one of the most famous Geisha districts in all of Japan. If you are really lucky, you will see the Geisha, also called Geiko, at night going to work dressed elegantly with make up and hair done perfectly! There are so many things about kimonos I can talk about so I will just share with you a portion of what I know!
