Kelly, this was so amazing to me, so I’m sure your were just totally amazed and speechless. Such a beautiful experience. Thank you for sharing this! Can’t wait to see what’s next!
That was such an amazing experience! Memoirs of a Geisha was honestly one of my favorite movies. It was so beautiful, emotional and touching. I can seriously understand why you were crying. I would've done the same.
That was SO COOL!! First video I’ve ever seen of a geisha... that has to be by far the best part ! Thank you so much for sharing this! I learned so much! ✌🏻💕
This was an exceptional video. Very well done and I related to being emotional as I probably would have been as well. I’ve been to many places that you have and saw many more that I will need to try next time I visit.
Hey Kelly! Was the experience with the Geisha only possible for being with a Japanese person? Is it something that a foreigner could easily access to? It looked so beautiful. I'm going to Kyoto soon but I don't speak any Japanese at all :(
The town with ghost that you went to reminds me of spirited away lol. hmmmm I wonder if that's where they maybe got the concept? If you haven't seen the movie spirited away...please do lol. i love that film ♥
Oh my gosh, even I got super emotional watching the maiko dance and hearing the geisha play the shamisen. I bet it's considered weird behavior to cry, I don't know if I could keep it together if I was there in person!! This is a lifelong dream of mine as well, to have the geisha experience. So incredible!
Every region of Japan has its own dialect, every prefecture does, to be precise. Kyoto is in Kansai region as Osaka is, so broadly speaking, Kansai ben (dialect) is spoken in both prefectures, although if you break it down, Kyoto ben and Osaka ben are quite different. All Kansai dialects have the same intonation which is very different from that of the east.
The general dialects are Kansai been in Kyoto, Osaka, Kyoto, Hyogo, etc. But each prefecture will have differences only spoke on that area. You get the generalized commonalities in regions like Kanto speaking generally standardised Japanese, but you'll get differences in prefectures from Tokyo, Chiba, Kanagawa, Saitama, etc. Every prefecture has is own dialect, but the generalities will be included into the lump category of regions because of similarities they share. Like Kyushu dialect includes all prefectures of Kyushu, but each prefecture within has it's own differences, like Hakata dialect in Fukuoka. The dialects can even go as far as each city could change very slightly, making the amount of Japanese used in the country so vast, many Japanese don't understand one another in some terms, phrases and accents. Thus, you see a lot of subtitles on TV here to make sure people understand clearly what's said.
Thank you so much for your videos. Watching your videos has become somewhat a routine for me and I love to watch them while I’m eating my breakfast in the morning before I have to get ready for work. You have such a relaxing and warm vibe about you :) thank you queen
I’m so glad you got to experience meeting a geisha and maiko. Thanks for sharing that experience with us. I’m falling more and more in love with Japan🥰
Yokai street is near our house . If you try to head down the street , you would find a river filled with orange trees clustered with hundreds and hundreds of fruits .
Ghosts street!!! I thought I'm never gonna see one of this in the land of rising sun but here I got kelly' video struck me like god!!! What can be more interesting than this street!!! 😆😆😆
Love this video, you guys did an awesome job explaining the areas and the places that you went to great job; hope you do a Halloween video, Halloween is one of my favorite holidays.
You are living the life! I love your videos and living vicariously through you two. Wishing you two all the happiness in tbe world...im planning my next vacation ....to Japan due to your videos..cannot wait!
Kelly, so far, this video was my favorite because of your dinner with the Geisha and the Maiko-san! Just like you, I'm an old softy, yes, I cried, as well. The Maiko-san's performance touched my heart! Thank you so much for sharing your special dinner with us! One of my trips to Kyoto I got to drink matcha green tea with a Geisha and her accompanied Maikos. It was a short visit that I had with them but very beautiful none the less. Can't wait to see the last video of your trip to Kyoto! Also, looking forward to seeing more videos of you and your fiance. Take Care, Guys. Peace.
Hello , new follower just working my way through old videos through current . When did you develop the soy and egg allergy ? I knew about the nuts but remember seeing you eating soy and eggs in previous videos ? I Must have missed the explanation on that . I love your videos so much and you have an amazing voice ! I hope to visit Japan someday
I love the video so much but feel so sorry for the most beautiful Geisha 😢 women I have been told always it is a very difficult life. I really should study up on its traditions I know its an extremely ancient way.
i wanted to see if a friend wanted to go to japan but he has allergies to: pollen, fur, grass, chocolate, mill sensitivity, peanuts, raw onions and garlic etc etc....i think hed be scared going to japan and eating food there.
Japanese Yokai folklore stories are my favorite!! I'm a huge anime lover, and for some reason I'm really attracted to Anime with demons in them. I'm realizing a lot of anime's really incorporate the folklore into their story line and personalities of the demon. So cool! thank you for sharing
Amazing missing Japan now. I don't know why people thumbs down this maybe jealous of you. Keep making your vlogs and I will keep watching. It gives a good idea of how daily life is in Japan and reference to where to go the next time I am in Japan.
What a wonderful experience - to learn a little bit of Geisha training. So very fascinating, heart-warming, incredibly intimate, but unifying. Lovely, truly lovely. Thank you so very much for sharing. I so love and am fascinated by Japanese culture and appreciate every little bit of information - and again, LOVE the sharing.
Love kyoto, can’t wait to get back there and experience the cherry blossoms of. One of my fave part of Kyoto is the shopping area just a few blocks away from THE MILLENNIALS KYOTO is amazing. The otter cafe a must along with the Edo period Starbucks. Love your videos of japan can’t wait to see more
I've read so many books and watched documentaries about geisha and maiko, I'd absolutely love to experience what you guys did so I can certainly understand how excited you must have been (also I would have cried during the performance as well!). The traditional signing and dancing are so unique and beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing!!! ❤️
Wowww the best part I like the most was all the video 😎 so interesting. I loved it :) watching your videos just made me keep saving up money to travel japan soon 🤭
Amazing! It's so rare to get an inside look at what it's like to dine with a Geisha - can't even imagine what it costs. I was actually surprised (but grateful) that they let you film it!
This was the best video ever. I loved seeing the maiko and the games. I would be more interested in their daily life and follow a maiko on "a day in the life of" type videos!
These has been amazing vlogs, Kelly. I am glad I found this channel. You bring me back to Japan even if it's through your experience lol
It was super cute watching how much you enjoyed the whole geisha experience ❤️ Hope you get to have more.cool experiences lile this 😊
The geisha experience was so special!
I went to Kyoto city last year.
Togetsu bridge(渡月橋) is so beautiful.
日本に来てくださってありがとうございます。
見てるだけでも楽しすぎた、、、ありがとう☆
can't wait for the next video 😍😍😍
The game at the end with the sake box was so fun ^^ I’d be so bad at that haha
Great vlog, thank you so much. I’m learning so much about Japan thru your vlogs. You two are so sweet together.

Voice over is the best
I loved the "rock, paper, scissors" game you played! That looked like so much fun!
I’m living in Japan, but never been to such a place, need to put onto my travel list. いつもありがとうございます😊
That was so nice too see thank you Love video 😎and music
That was so wholesome!
This was an amazing video, thank you!
wow that was amazing and informative! can't really find that unique stuff on youtube :)
Great upload !
nice vid .. going to kyoto next month .. greetings from Canada
The town with ghost that you went to reminds me of spirited away lol. hmmmm I wonder if that's where they maybe got the concept? If you haven't seen the movie spirited away...please do lol. i love that film ♥
The experience to watch a real geisha must be surreal!
Loved the video! How did you book the dinner with a Maiko - or what company did you book with?
Yesssss❤❤❤❤❤❤
I loved those drinking games!
Awesome!
I have been to Kyoto for 4 times, unfortunately, I never saw geishas walking on the street, let along watching a performance.😂
Did you taste Kiyomizu Cheese Kozo...a Cheese Cake in a Bottle... here... kiyomizu-cheese.com/#news
Such an amazing experience! The time you spent with the geisha and maiko looked so fun. So glad you shared the experience with us.
I loved the games! What a wonderful experience!
Oh my gosh, even I got super emotional watching the maiko dance and hearing the geisha play the shamisen. I bet it's considered weird behavior to cry, I don't know if I could keep it together if I was there in person!! This is a lifelong dream of mine as well, to have the geisha experience. So incredible!
As well as the experience itself, it is knowing that there are centuries of stable tradition behind it.
Didnt know that Kyoto had their own dialect as well! I only hear about the Osaka one a lot :D
Ya I didn’t even notice until Ryuji pointed it out!
Every region of Japan has its own dialect, every prefecture does, to be precise.
Kyoto is in Kansai region as Osaka is, so broadly speaking, Kansai ben (dialect) is spoken in both prefectures, although if you break it down, Kyoto ben and Osaka ben are quite different.
All Kansai dialects have the same intonation which is very different from that of the east.
Kyoto ben spoken by women are flowery and sounds the prettiest.
The general dialects are Kansai been in Kyoto, Osaka, Kyoto, Hyogo, etc. But each prefecture will have differences only spoke on that area.
You get the generalized commonalities in regions like Kanto speaking generally standardised Japanese, but you'll get differences in prefectures from Tokyo, Chiba, Kanagawa, Saitama, etc. Every prefecture has is own dialect, but the generalities will be included into the lump category of regions because of similarities they share.

Most of them do. Just thing about as the US has different accents.
Thank you so much for your videos. Watching your videos has become somewhat a routine for me and I love to watch them while I’m eating my breakfast in the morning before I have to get ready for work. You have such a relaxing and warm vibe about you :) thank you queen
AHH! This is by far my favorite video - I loved being able to giggle and learn with you! Thank you for sharing the Geisha experience with us all!
I found your visit with the geisha and maiko interesting.
Do you have to carry an epi pen with you with those allergies? If so is it an expensive for an epi pen there, the US is very pricy for it.
Yayy!! First comment! Btw love your videos! Keep them coming!!!
Omg
One of my favorite videos ever, I loved it. Much love from Texas❤️❤️❤️
Do you guys know "Paolo from Tokyo"? He's filming and uploading from Kyoto same time you guys are! Would have been funny if you ran into him!
I’m so glad you got to experience meeting a geisha and maiko. Thanks for sharing that experience with us. I’m falling more and more in love with Japan🥰

お座敷遊び、楽しそうですね。京都に住んでいるのですが、1度も体験した事がないので羨ましいです。

Wow how cool! The dinner looked so fun!
The Teahouse was so great to see and I would have cried too! Thank you for sharing! 💖
