I’m on the road again, or should I say, in a different country. Yes, I am in Japan! (This will be my last trip for the year!) It has been one crazy year of travelling for me, and I don’t know how I’ve gotten thru it, but so far so good.

This trip I’m travelling with my Mother to 5 different cities, namely, Osaka, Kyushu, Sapporo, Sendai and Tokyo. We are revisiting all the instructors and giving follow-up workshops on the Tropical Flowers course and in addition, Christmas workshops in some of the cities.

Our modes of transportation have been the bullet train and airplane. I’m having a BLAST visiting and eating my way thru all the special, regional cuisine of each city! Just the other day, while in Tokyo (one of my FAVORITE places), I was walking around the Ginza district and was amazed by all the beautiful lights, and being enthused by all of the newest, trendy designs of architecture. There is so much to do and see here!

There are 2 more cities to visit, so I’ll be back in Honolulu next week. I will be working on the Christmas and New Year’s kits, so if you have a chance, stop by to take a look. Hope to see you soon at the studio!
