“Day to Uji”

Kyoto is beautiful but Mana took us to her hometown of Uji, which is a short train ride away. Gorgeous scenery including the Uji river, Byodoin Temple, small tea ceremony, and several great lessons on some basic Japanese. Perfect 4 hours!

Dear Pete. Thank you for joining us for a tea ceremony in my hometown of Uji City, even though it was just for a short 4 hours. I appreciate you experiencing the culture and history of Uji. Please feel free to visit Kyoto again at any time with your family. Mana

“Safe and Quick to See the Sights”

Mana was very quick, too quick for our liking (and we requested going slower). But she ultimately got us to the sights we wanted to see quickly and safely. Her English is mediocre, so don't expect to learn too much about the various sights other than basic stuff. When we asked more probing questions, we didn't get much. Friendly enough, we had a good day.

Dear Daniel. I apologize for not meeting your expectations on this trip. My alcohol knowledge is limited due to the fact that I do not drink any alcohol at all and I realize I need to study more on this subject. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. It was unfortunate that I was not able to enjoy drinking with you both but I am glad that you were able to bond over the alcoholic beverages. Please enjoy some Japanese sake with everyone in your country as well. Thank you Mana

There are so many great places in Kyoto that you probably want to visit but perhaps not enough time. Also, Kyoto is getting very crowded due to a lot of foreigners visiting there. It is best to have a local person guiding you to come up with a plan that suits your preference. I can create a tour with you which includes not only popular places like the Golden Pavilion and Fushimi Inari but small temples with Wabi Sabi such as those in Sagano and the oldest Japanese sweet shop in Murasakino.
