A half an hour, a valuable time

I had an unexpected free time for wait the completion of repair-work of my shoes at a shoemaker under Yokohama station the other day. They told me that I had to spend more than a half an hour.

The easiest way to spend a half an hour in that underground market area might be taking a cup of coffee or reading magazines at book store for no buy. But I did not take a cup of coffee expecting to take it for free in my salon within an hour, neither standing-read (a Japanese saying for read but no buy) more than a half an hour.

After a short looking for my target, I found and decided to apply a blood bank which called for type AB blood at a temporally facility near the station. Type AB is same to my one.

I was very much satisfied with my choice of the way for spending a half an hour.

A bride with traditional dress in a traditional old house

We were asked to take pictures in bridal costume by one of our guests the other day. Her request was to dress a traditional Japanese kimono specially designed for bridal dress. That is so called Shiromuku which means ‘‘pure white’’ without uncleanness. This time, I was in charge of selecting the kimono and to assist her for wearing them in a straight manner.

An old traditional house in country side was chosen as a location. The real old house realized more vivid feeling of appearance than the virtual set in the photographing salon. Her shape in Shiromuku was just so beautiful and fixed my eyes on it.

I appreciated attending such photographing at the special location which gave me a good chance to study something new.

A small world surrounding me

I feel that the community surrounding me has been widely spreading day by day, every month in this year. That is conformed by many people from various fields like mass-media, publishing business and so on. The opening of English version web-site contributes to widening such community and it gives me a fanciful feeling like making a voyage.

Talking to those people gives me a lot of new idea and good thought for my next activity.
Furthermore, it is very interesting and useful for my life to listen to each person’s talk.
Appreciating resent development of communication network, I am very happy filled by such feeling in these days.

Flower Festival

I had an extremely good stroll along the streets around “The Red Warehouse” with a guest to Artemis the other day. “The Red Warehouse is one of very popular sightseeing spots in Yokohama these days. Therefore it’s so crowded by many sightseers especially in holidays.

Delightfully, there appears a flower garden in that area in this special season. Marvelous colors of a lot of flower and the red color of the buildings make a good contrast or a harmony and give great impression to people who see them.

This festival is one of most preferable event for Artemis guests every year.

Oh! Spring has come！ by Kaede

Several days ago, I strolled in countryside near Yokohama with one of our guests who wanted to touch good atmosphere of the spring season and took a guided outing course at that time.


Japan is in the best spring days now.
We could meet various blossoms of plum, cherry or even unknown wild plants which bloom brightly, spectacularly or just pretty.
They look like vying each other.

Beautiful Japanese spring time!

For me, it is one of favorite seasons in this country.
