Good question, it is not mirrored. One wants to wear a kimono with their left side of kimono folded over to the right.

Thanks

I find shamisen is a great instrument to learn by ear. As long as the melody isn't too complex I like to figure it out.

@@japandilife i understand. Im very New to shamisen playing and had hoped to get the Notation somethere, im afraid, i really dont Match your skill by now^^

At the Frankfurt airport there are several Lounges. They are apart of the cost of business class and above tickets. Depending on availability one might be able to pay for them as well.

Thanks Koss! Greece makes it pretty easy to make great video.

Thank you delibirdite! That means a lot.

Thanks! 😃 Hope it was helpful!

Hi Janne, I used two command strip hooks and a long piece of bamboo. ~ Japandi Life

Thank you!

Thank you very much shoegaze, I made this video because when I grew my hair there was very little if not nothing on practical ways to style it. I'm glad this video was able to help you.

I had my first lesson in July of last year, so about 9 months.

@@japandilife It's very pleasant to hear you play. I hope you keep it up!

Thanks for the tip Miki!

Thank you JL. I'm following my heart and the example of those who have come before me.

Thanks Tina, the bedroom is going through changes and yes that rug will be moved. I'm planning on making an update once there is some shelving added.

Arigato Jai-san! I hope to share work with you in the not too distant future. ~ Kevin

That is so kind for you to say Andrew! Shamisen is so much fun. If you have any questions feel free to connect with me. I also recommend look at Bachido. They got some great tips!

@@japandilife Thank you, I will. I learned a great many things from the Bachido forums.

@@japandilife It's been a month or so and I'm starting to get a hang of it, but playing the same song over and over again is getting a little tedious. I have looked around the internet and couldn't really find a lot of sheet music for the shamisen, so I started translating piano sheet music (which doesn't always translate very well while others like silent night translate surprisingly well to a shamisen). TLDR: Do you have any tips on where to find more sheet music for the shamisen? Thank you for taking my request into consideration, apologies if I made a mistake as English is not my native language. With kind regards.

@@andrewgrinn3435 here are some recommendation: 1. Bachido School: they have several shamisen sheet music. 2. Use simple melody lines on western sheet music. It might be because I played violin but it starting with easy tunes led to me playing more difficult ones. 3. UA-cam on slow. To learn some tunes I slowed down youtube and learned to play some. This isn't so easy but it can help. PS. What is your native language?

@@japandilife Thank you, I hadn't thought of slowing down UA-cam videos. I'll give it a shot. My native language is Flemish, what's yours?

Brava Jean! You are correct. It's Bizen. There is the gomayu/sesame seed effect from the ash glaze. Nevertheless, it's amazing to have an intact and beautiful piece from the 1500s. Thank you for catching that :)

It is all natural. Some how my beard grows this full. I'm in my 30's, when I was in my 20's it could grow this full.

@@japandilife full? u dont have any hair on moustache and front chin how is this full are u gay lol

Thanks Slaylord! Just trying to provide guests with a fun welcoming experience. :)

Congratulations Heather! I'm glad that you are 8 years cancer-free and that you are purposeful and generous with your hair :)

That is so sweet of you Slaylord! My Boo has some good eyes. :)

Hey MK, I understand. Headaches are one reason why I use Kooshoo hair ties. They are thick bands and with a cotton outer layer that doesn't pull on hair, at least my thick straight hair. That being said depending on my mood and how I want to express myself I do wear my hair down as well.

Thick hair ties does made changes in headache to me also. Japandi Life- really nice styles
