Thank you for sharing treasures of Japan while you are teaching Sutan. I have never met a geiko or maiko. I always thought that geiko and maiko have a hard life, busy, working, practice, wearing heavy make-up and wigs, expensive kimono. The maiko do not have time for a boyfriend even though they are young. I hope Japanese people appreciate the sacrifices of maiko and geiko to continue the tradition.

Thank you so much for showing us some of the wonderful & authentic Geiko experience in Gion! If I'm not mistaken, the Geiko was in the white kimono, and the Maiko (with more decorations in her hair) was in the green kimono. I'm so grateful they allowed you to record and share with us!

@Tian I can't imagine how busy busy Moe must be every day!! I'm very grateful for the Kimonoko Community that has formed around her KZread, and sharing a sense of Omotenashi おもてなし. Giving hospitality/care to the guest with a pure heart, deeply from the bottom of the heart, with no other thoughts involved. もてなす(motenasu), the verb form of omotenashi, means think about others with a genuine heart and treat them with sincere kindness. (The origin meaning is not well known even to Japanese) When Moe heard it.... Moe said, “when I heard the meaning, I learned that we can make the world a better place if everyone tries to have 'omotenashi' heart."

My two year old is always nervous when she is around a large group of people. Seeing how you calmly handle this type of situation and gives Sutan emotional support when she has a melt down is really inspiring! You are a wonderful mom :)

I love one thing about Japan is they still preserve their own culture even though they are so modernized. Additionally, their culture is quite simplistic and disciplined in a way that is morally grounded. I love Japan!

The wholesomeness of this family and the positivity in the comments are so refreshing.

Your husband mr Moro is the most wonderful , generous, kind and cool man in Japan ./ may be in the world / it is very hard find husband who support you and no jealous in your success. Love your family ❤

It'd interesting how Sutan stuck closer to Moe this time, usually it's her Papa. It's like Sutan knew she was visiting her mother's special place 🌷. Lovely video Moe, thanks for sharing.🌸💗

Everything in Japan seems so neat and clean, looking at all these different places. Also this was the quietest Sutan has ever been. All of the new people around were a little much for her.

The Geiko World is so dreamlike and elegant. Thank you for sharing this beautiful and nostalgic moment with us, Moe-san. This was a rare and special treat, even Sutan was captivated. 😊🤙

I love this part of Japan. Relaxing gardens, lovingly detailed architecture, peaceful people that equally contribute to tradition as well as being progressive. I hope this beautiful way will be preserved for many generations to come. 🙏

Here I am making myself an ordinary cheese sandwich and a cup of tea, while watching you being served the most elegant looking breakfast I have ever seen in my life! The ryokan looked amazing and their hospitality was outstanding.

Japonese traditional houses and gardens are sooo beautiful!

I’m living in Kyoto and have been here for 3 years, your video makes me feel everything here is so familiar and wonderful. It’s so nice to see Maiko’s performance. ありがとうございます

Having returned from Japan last week, this vlog makes me kind of emotional. Kyoto was beautiful, especially Gion. It felt like time had stopped and we didn't have anything to worry about. I sure hope I'll be able to visit again im april. Thank you for showing us this mesmerizing art. Greetings from Switzerland

I’m getting flashbacks to when my dad and I went to Gion four years ago. Longing to go back one day. 💕

not only do I appreciate a glimpse into your beautiful past, but I appreciate you candor in sharing Sutans emotional experiences. Its so lovely to see parents talking about emotions so honestly. I really love that when sutan cried, you talked through it, and later could look back and learn. She must love and trust you so much moe. Amazing vid. 💞💞💞

To me your culture is so special, I feel like I missed something. I spent 3 years in Japan and Okinawa and was exposed to many traditional things as places but your hotel accommodations were amazing, like a trip back in time. 😎

Kyoto is beautiful and so tranquil…I was there just 3 weeks ago. I miss it so much! I need to look up where you stayed and pay a visit. The Japanese garden was fabulous! I could sit there all day and sip tea! And the shot of you with the foamy mask was so unexpected, it made me laugh out loud! Wonderful culture exposure for Sutan!

2016 da Japonya’ya gelmiştim, unutamadığım gezilerimin arasında yer alır. Bir çok kentle beraber Kyoto’ya da gitmiştik❤️sayenizde çok daha fazla ayrıntı gördüm. Sizin Türkiye’deki takipçilerinizden birisiyim, videolarınıza ve özellikle Sutan’a bayılıyorum. Ben 65 yaşındayım ve aynen Sutan yaşında bir torunum var. Onun ismi de Can. Çok değişik coğrafyalardan olmamıza rağmen çocukların davranışları o kadar benzer ki. Umarım bir gün Can ve ben bir gün Japonya’yı tekrar ziyaret edebiliriz🙏🌺🌸

I'm so happy for Sutan that her parents give her so many possibilities to experience different things by traveling and by exposing her to japanese culture. That's amazing.

Oh my gosh! I never knew you were once a maiko geiko, Moe! I think it's great to let Sutan experience what you did as a former maiko.

Hi Moe, thank you for sharing such a beautiful video. I love Japan and this was an amazing experience to watch. My little girl always gets excited when she sees Sutan 😀 Greetings from Germany ❤

I loved Kyoto, so laid back and relaxing with many beautiful gardens. I wish I had stayed longer.

This is what i needed from a week filled with STRESS. Also i really need to add to my list to try to embroider a portrait of a Maiko (or maybe Kimono Mom herself) 15:56 Bonus etiquette lessons, i love it!

モエさん、お素敵なビデオありがとう御座います🙏🏻私は妊娠するまで日本に住んでいて、そして主人の転勤でドイツに移動になりました。自分はロシア人、主人はアメリカ人で日本の事を大好きでビデオを見てとても懐かしかったです。息子は今2歳ですがもう少し大きくなりましたら是非日本へ連れて行きたいと思います、日本語も教えたいし😊モエさんは素敵な、丁寧なお母さんだなと思いました。今回のビデオを見て、原因が分かりました。そんな素敵なところで巣立っていましたね、ご主人も素敵な方で、ご家族はとても平和で、バランスが良くとっている雰囲気です。スちゃんはとてもラッキーな女の子ですね❤皆さんの幸せ、健康を望んでいます🙏🏻新しいビデオを楽しみにしています！

Having watched and remembered the Life Story video Moe did a couple of years ago, I watched this video with new eyes.

This is the most beautiful and serene place I've ever seen.

The dance, the play (i absolute love 'Konpira fune fune' song, and the play looks so much fun!) the ryokan and the ladylord maneirisms too... This video was so cultural deep, thank you Moe for showing it to us!

Thank you for sharing a visit to the ochaya where you were trained! It's such a rare thing to see. I was particularly impressed by the gaiko's skill in the dance you showed us.

So beautiful! I loved the dancers. So glad these traditional dancers are being preserved for the world to enjoy.❤

Your culture is so refined. Thank you for sharing it with us. It’s been so wonderful to see Sutan grow in front of our eyes💕

It is so nice how the outdoors can be incorporated with the indoors

What a beautiful vlog. I enjoyed every moment of this. Everything was so interesting, elegant and beautiful. Sutan did not only look like a princess, she behaved like one as well, on her best behaviour. Well done Sutan. It’s not easy for a toddler to sit quiet. The Maiko and Geisha are so mesmerising. How good it must have been for you to see them again. The Ryokan is so well planned out, the garden, the shoji doors, the view and the food and the hospitality of the lady. You must have had a grand day out. Thank you for sharing it with us. 🙏🏻

This is really fascinating. I felt like ppl who work in culture-related career that passed down through generations is totally amazing. They’re the knight of history, working to preserve valuable cultures to next generations. Idk about japan situation but in my country, ppl who working to keeping old cultures be called ‘old school’. It’s not something everyone appreciated and not something that you can make money with. The social perception toward them is different from someone being ‘doctor’ ‘lawyer’ or ‘engineer’.

Thank you for sharing this special video with us! My favourite part was actually when you and Moto were talking about why Sutan cried. I appreciated how you took the time to let her calm down and explain why she cried, and also how you shared the experience with Moto. I also appreciate seeing how you're collecting your postcards in your travels - I hope I will get to receive some of them!

Very lovely visit. Fascinating. Enjoyed it very much. Thank you.

this was such a lovely video! thank you for sharing some traditional japanese culture, i really enjoyed the shamisen playing especially! i hope poor sutan's confidence grows so she can play with the maiko next time :)

Thank you for your hard word showing us so many different places in Japan. I love watching Sutan grow up!

So touching to hear about the place where you "grew up", and to see a glimpse of the place that raised you to be who you are! I think it's wonderful that Sutan also gets to learn about the deep culture that you worked so hard to learn and to share with the world.

Konnichiwa from Portland Oregon! Thank you for taking us along to the Maiko house and the guest quarters. How beautiful! And by the way I think Sutan still resembles her daddy in her facial features.

I missed the great opportunity to live in Japan in the home of traditional family in 1979. My Japanese room mate in a Pension in Paris has introduced me to Tea Ceremony. From that moment on I have fallen with Japan and its refined culture. I wish I could be living in a small town in Japan. I know I would be surrounded by beautiful people like Kimonomom and her most adorable little Sutan. All my life since my Tea Ceremony with Mariko, I have had many kimonos 👘. Arigatou gozaimasu Moe-san for bringing me back so much joy and now after so many years I have dreams again of being in Japan. You remind me of my friend Mariko. You symbolize the best woman of Japan. So refined and intelligent, so beautiful as the Cherry Blossom. Jocelyne Mirambeau 🙏🌷

That must have bought back many happy memories, Moe. It was good to see Moto entering into the spirit of the occasion and Sutan enjoying it all, until the 'all eyes on her' moment. Thank you for showing us a glimpse of your past, Moe. A thoroughly enjoyable vlog. Thank you.
