About Me:
People who I've met before, said my personality is energetic, positive and curious. I used to work for a small foreign web marketing company in sales and marketing. However I finally decided to start working as a full-time geisha last summer. I have been learning the shamisen, a traditional Japanese instrument, for about 5 years. I really love to play it, so at the end of 2009, I started to work as a part-time geisha in Hachioji so that I could play the shamisen in a traditional setting. However last August, I became a full-time geisha, because it was difficult to become more professional while working only on weekends as a part-time geisha. By the way, before becoming a geisha, whenever I had free time, I traveled to some countries and stayed in the homes of local families. It was enjoyable to get to know their local culture. Even Though I’m married, I love to travel alone in order to get to know local people more deeply, not only in foreign countries, but also in other areas of Japan. If you check some of my photos and my blog, you can find out me in more detail. Days in Japan http://daysinjapan.main.jp/ Google Picasa http://picasaweb.google.co.jp/akazawa.makiko One of my dreams is to tell foreign people about Japan’s real traditional culture. If you checked my pfofile and have an interest in Japanese culture, please don't hesitate to contact me. * So I’m sorry but I only reply genuine emails. I started my new blog about Tokyo's geisha. http://tokyogeisha.blogspot.com/ If you want an authentic geisha experience, feel free to contact me.

Makiko, i am bringing my daughter to Japan next month and hope you can be my guide for night shopping and cultural shows. I like to argue with my husband and girl on travelling and food. Please show me the best places for dinners.
