How we found GEISHA and other 🇯🇵 Kyoto culture in Japan



It’s our second day in Japan’s historic city of Kyoto and we’re about to pack five thousand years’ worth of authentic sites and bites into just a few hours. From samurai tea to shinto shrines. From alleyway foods to dancing geisha. And all from our home base at the Four Seasons Kyoto.

ABOUT US

We’re the Lockwoods. And we’re traveling the world to experience—up close and in person—all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise be consuming only through textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’re working hard to fund this little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.
