Meet Maiko in Kyoto | Mom is a former maiko
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 лис 2022
- This video is a vlog of a trip to Kyoto by a Japanese family living in Tokyo. Today's video is kind of special. Because I'm taking you back to my home, where I spent time as a maiko geiko. I think that not many people, no matter how many trips they have taken to Japan, have experienced this culture. I have learned many important things in my life in this town called Gion. It is a place that always reminds me of my beginnings.
I can't post info on the maiko place, but the link to the beautiful Ryokan where we stayed is below. I couldn't find their website in English, so here is a link to a blog that someone wrote about it in detail. Please check it out!

I never met a maiko geiko before
Thank you for sharing treasures of Japan while you are teaching Sutan. I have never met a geiko or maiko. I always thought that geiko and maiko have a hard life, busy, working, practice, wearing heavy make-up and wigs, expensive kimono. The maiko do not have time for a boyfriend even though they are young. I hope Japanese people appreciate the sacrifices of maiko and geiko to continue the tradition.
The quietest Sutan video ever. Your Kyoto apartment was so charming and peaceful, as were the people.
@@donavanjohnson409 is that maiko girl is legal prostitute in their country?
❤❤❤
Getting a glimpse inside an authentic Tea House, in Kyoto no less, is very rare. I'm glad Moe got to show us her roots in this warm slice of life vlog.
For sure your mom is a wonderful lady 😊
I love that they're talking about their kid like she's a fellow human not someone beneath.. like you can tell they respect her even though she's a child.
You never know Japan … they oppress women
Kimono Mom please please pleaaase do a story time about your life as a maiko and why you left!! It would be so incredibly interesting😍
if i’m not wrong,she already posted a video last year
I am pretty sure part of the reason she left is because she got married to her first husband, who had to travel frequently for work.
@@geisalMINelf13 can you share the link to that video? I tried finding it but I couldn't
when a maiko gets married, she has to stop being a maiko
@@precious_svt418 I assumed it was because of that. So is that how they met ? When she was a Maiko ?
I love the japanese aesthetic, the way they design things from the garden to the furniture and houses no wonder so many creative people are attracted to it, you can find so much inspiration from it.
Even the way food is arranged and served..
Thank you so much for showing us some of the wonderful & authentic Geiko experience in Gion! If I'm not mistaken, the Geiko was in the white kimono, and the Maiko (with more decorations in her hair) was in the green kimono. I'm so grateful they allowed you to record and share with us!
Hi Motto! Yes, the Geiko in white kimono and the Maiko in green! It is my great pleasure to show you all to my precious place!❣️❣️
@@KimonoMom 😑🙏🏻ありがとうございます
@Tian I can't imagine how busy busy Moe must be every day!! I'm very grateful for the Kimonoko Community that has formed around her UA-cam, and sharing a sense of Omotenashi おもてなし. Giving hospitality/care to the guest with a pure heart, deeply from the bottom of the heart, with no other thoughts involved. もてなす(motenasu), the verb form of omotenashi, means think about others with a genuine heart and treat them with sincere kindness.
(The origin meaning is not well known even to Japanese)
When Moe heard it....
Moe said, “when I heard the meaning, I learned that we can make the world a better place if everyone tries to have 'omotenashi' heart."
Wow. Absolutely amazing
Arigato gozaimas! ❤❤❤
My two year old is always nervous when she is around a large group of people. Seeing how you calmly handle this type of situation and gives Sutan emotional support when she has a melt down is really inspiring! You are a wonderful mom :)
Oh how beautiful a culture Japan has.
The wholesomeness of this family and the positivity in the comments are so refreshing.
We appreciate you for showing us different aspects of your culture. It gives us an even broader perspective on certain things.
The whole video was pure culture, the dance was fascinating and the garden scenary was absolutely mesmerizing.
Sutan is getting more beautiful day by day. 😌
Thank you for showing us this amazing trip!! 😊
I loved Kyoto, so laid back and relaxing with many beautiful gardens. I wish I had stayed longer.
The Geiko World is so dreamlike and elegant. Thank you for sharing this beautiful and nostalgic moment with us, Moe-san. This was a rare and special treat, even Sutan was captivated. 😊🤙
I love one thing about Japan is they still preserve their own culture even though they are so modernized. Additionally, their culture is quite simplistic and disciplined in a way that is morally grounded.
I love Japan!
I’m living in Kyoto and have been here for 3 years, your video makes me feel everything here is so familiar and wonderful. It’s so nice to see Maiko’s performance. ありがとうございます
To me your culture is so special, I feel like I missed something. I spent 3 years in Japan and Okinawa and was exposed to many traditional things as places but your hotel accommodations were amazing, like a trip back in time. 😎
not only do I appreciate a glimpse into your beautiful past, but I appreciate you candor in sharing Sutans emotional experiences. Its so lovely to see parents talking about emotions so honestly. I really love that when sutan cried, you talked through it, and later could look back and learn. She must love and trust you so much moe. Amazing vid. 💞💞💞
Having returned from Japan last week, this vlog makes me kind of emotional. Kyoto was beautiful, especially Gion. It felt like time had stopped and we didn't have anything to worry about. I sure hope I'll be able to visit again im april. Thank you for showing us this mesmerizing art. Greetings from Switzerland
I love this part of Japan. Relaxing gardens, lovingly detailed architecture, peaceful people that equally contribute to tradition as well as being progressive. I hope this beautiful way will be preserved for many generations to come. 🙏
Kyoto is beautiful and so tranquil…I was there just 3 weeks ago. I miss it so much! I need to look up where you stayed and pay a visit. The Japanese garden was fabulous! I could sit there all day and sip tea! And the shot of you with the foamy mask was so unexpected, it made me laugh out loud! Wonderful culture exposure for Sutan!
Oh my gosh! I never knew you were once a maiko geiko, Moe! I think it's great to let Sutan experience what you did as a former maiko.
Japonese traditional houses and gardens are sooo beautiful!
Everything in Japan seems so neat and clean, looking at all these different places. Also this was the quietest Sutan has ever been. All of the new people around were a little much for her.
Here I am making myself an ordinary cheese sandwich and a cup of tea, while watching you being served the most elegant looking breakfast I have ever seen in my life!
The ryokan looked amazing and their hospitality was outstanding.
this was so beautiful to watch, im glad you’re showing us your past and giving us a chance to explore different things, same things goes for sutan who is seeing different sides of her parents and exploring different things all around too
So lovely that Sutan is experiencing so many new things 💕 great job to Moe and Motto
It must've been nostalgic to see your mother again after so many years, i feel like i want to cry and hug your mother if i was in your shoes for it's been long, honto ne sutteki 😭❤️
not her birth mother- the woman who trained her in her work!!!!!
@@andreanittel2240 nothing wrong with that, she still calls her her mother.
@@andreanittel2240 There’s no need to “shout” or make your point with so many exclamation points. Would you like someone telling you off in the comments? Who needs more anger in their life? Lol 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
It'd interesting how Sutan stuck closer to Moe this time, usually it's her Papa. It's like Sutan knew she was visiting her mother's special place 🌷. Lovely video Moe, thanks for sharing.🌸💗
You are right🤣Sutan always sticks to Moto when he is there! Thanks for watching!
I’m getting flashbacks to when my dad and I went to Gion four years ago. Longing to go back one day. 💕
The beauty of the garden really moved me to tears.
Your husband mr Moro is the most wonderful , generous, kind and cool man in Japan ./ may be in the world / it is very hard find husband who support you and no jealous in your success. Love your family ❤
The postcards! Beautiful! The Maiko and your Mother...I'm so happy in my soul to learn about your culture and customs. I'm learning Japanese for 2 months and it's fascinating.(I've learned more from Sutan than class! Thank You and Moto again for bringing joy.
What a beautiful vlog. I enjoyed every moment of this. Everything was so interesting, elegant and beautiful. Sutan did not only look like a princess, she behaved like one as well, on her best behaviour. Well done Sutan. It’s not easy for a toddler to sit quiet. The Maiko and Geisha are so mesmerising. How good it must have been for you to see them again.
The Ryokan is so well planned out, the garden, the shoji doors, the view and the food and the hospitality of the lady. You must have had a grand day out. Thank you for sharing it with us. 🙏🏻
Your culture is so refined. Thank you for sharing it with us. It’s been so wonderful to see Sutan grow in front of our eyes💕
So beautiful! I loved the dancers. So glad these traditional dancers are being preserved for the world to enjoy.❤
This is what i needed from a week filled with STRESS.
Also i really need to add to my list to try to embroider a portrait of a Maiko (or maybe Kimono Mom herself)
15:56 Bonus etiquette lessons, i love it!
I love this video so much. I am so in love with the Japanese culture, I love how considerate you are with each other and so respectful. Kyoto is my favourite place to visit and I hope one day I can experience dining in a tea house.
I’ve been to Japan 4 times and will gladly keep coming back every chance I get. Thank you for your hard word showing us so many different places in Japan. I love watching Sutan grow up!
I'm so happy for Sutan that her parents give her so many possibilities to experience different things by traveling and by exposing her to japanese culture. That's amazing.
So touching to hear about the place where you "grew up", and to see a glimpse of the place that raised you to be who you are! I think it's wonderful that Sutan also gets to learn about the deep culture that you worked so hard to learn and to share with the world.
The dance, the play (i absolute love 'Konpira fune fune' song, and the play looks so much fun!) the ryokan and the ladylord maneirisms too... This video was so cultural deep, thank you Moe for showing it to us!
Oh this was so special! Thank you for sharing with us all ❤ very beautiful place
Magical video !
The world is holding its breath for a baby sibling for the adorable daughter ❤
Thank you for sharing a visit to the ochaya where you were trained! It's such a rare thing to see. I was particularly impressed by the gaiko's skill in the dance you showed us.
Greetings from Austria! Thank you for this opportunity for learning about Japanese culture. I admire the elegance, modesty, and spirituality in your traditions. This establishment has such wonderful hospitality and that performance was magical. I would like to visit such a place one day.
Your videos always inspire me to do my best and your family warms my heart every time. Thank you for all of your hard work. 頑張ってください.
Welcome Back. Ah so beautiful and wonderful experience to learn more about Japan culture and manners.
Thank You for your beautiful Vlog🌷❤️
This is the most beautiful and serene place I've ever seen.
Another wonderful video, Thanks for the wonderful view of beautiful Gion and the culture!
Hi Moe, thank you for sharing such a beautiful video. I love Japan and this was an amazing experience to watch. My little girl always gets excited when she sees Sutan 😀 Greetings from Germany ❤
This is such a privilege to be included in your experiences: past and present. Thank you for sharing your journey. Stay well and positive. Hello from London : - )
I absolutely love this!
The architecture in Japan is so fascinating.
The thoughtfulness of everyone in your country is just astonishing to me.
I love to see videos like this... Thank you for yet another fun and educational video!😊✨
I really appreciate the culture it fits me so very well!😊✨🌸
2016 da Japonya’ya gelmiştim, unutamadığım gezilerimin arasında yer alır. Bir çok kentle beraber Kyoto’ya da gitmiştik❤️sayenizde çok daha fazla ayrıntı gördüm. Sizin Türkiye’deki takipçilerinizden birisiyim, videolarınıza ve özellikle Sutan’a bayılıyorum. Ben 65 yaşındayım ve aynen Sutan yaşında bir torunum var. Onun ismi de Can. Çok değişik coğrafyalardan olmamıza rağmen çocukların davranışları o kadar benzer ki. Umarım bir gün Can ve ben bir gün Japonya’yı tekrar ziyaret edebiliriz🙏🌺🌸
Wow what an amazing place to visit! The ceremony was so cool & seeing how much fun you all had. Sutan is the prettiest princess ever!!!
It’s fascinating to see this part of your past life. Thank you for sharing it with us.
10年以上前の舞妓さんドキュメント番組の置屋さんが多摩さんで、若いモエさんも少しだけ映っていましたね。
今でも親しくしていらっしゃってお母さんも変わらずお元気そうで嬉しかったです！
Thank you for sharing your amazing culture with us! I'm fascinated by Japanese culture and this was really a treat to watch!
Thank you for sharing this special video with us! My favourite part was actually when you and Moto were talking about why Sutan cried. I appreciated how you took the time to let her calm down and explain why she cried, and also how you shared the experience with Moto. I also appreciate seeing how you're collecting your postcards in your travels - I hope I will get to receive some of them!
That must have bought back many happy memories, Moe. It was good to see Moto entering into the spirit of the occasion and Sutan enjoying it all, until the 'all eyes on her' moment. Thank you for showing us a glimpse of your past, Moe. A thoroughly enjoyable vlog. Thank you.
I haven't seen audience participation before. This was great to see. I love the way you handled Sutan and her crying situation. What a beautiful place you stayed at. Overall a wonderful experience.
Thank you so much for sharing your trip. I’ve seen maiko/geiko being shuffled into the tea houses in Kyoto, but nothing more than that. Thank you for sharing your stay too - will look for it on our next trip to Kyoto.
Such a magical place. Thanks for sharing these beautiful moments and memories
It is so beautiful and thank you so much for sharing your experience and the place you kind of grew up with at that period of time. Loved every moment that your family enjoyed the experience together ❤
Watching your videos is a type of healing ✨️. My heart feels light after watching it🥰. Sutan is so cute and bright too. She grows up so fast 💞
Thank you for sharing. So beautiful and peaceful.
I’ve joined the kimono club now☺️ Excited to see all the videos in the near future. Very thankful for all the comforting and amazing content you made 🥰
This was an amazing video! Thank you for sharing your life with us.
It was a cultural and pleasant travel. Thank you to take us with you. I would never be able to go to such places like that, I'm realy thankful for all your great contents and efforts. ❤️From🇧🇷
Wow..thank you for letting me have a view of this beautiful place n your culture
Cute Sutan was enjoying the trip and got real tired 🥰 Beautiful places ; great performance and lots of good foods 👍
Very lovely visit. Fascinating. Enjoyed it very much. Thank you.
Moe, beautiful video. I love the cooking ones and adding these cultural insights is a pure treat and best way to expand your channel content.
Oh my gosh, she's gotten so big. They grow up so quickly. I'm glad to see everyone is in good spirits. I hope the best for you guys.❤️
やっぱり一流の芸舞妓さんは、品を身につけてるんだと改めて感じて嬉しくなりました。
Beaituful video, I especially loved how the Ryokan put in extra thought into the breakfast they offered their guests. The grounds are just beautiful, everything was amazing!
Being considerate with each other = *Happiness is Infinite*
🤗
So true!!!!❤️❤️❤️
So wonderful! Thanks for sharing this with us 🥰
sutan's kawai face, late night talk between moe and moto, and moto enjoying the masked face of moe are best of the best
Most, you in the mask could be a Studio Ghibli creation! This entire video was a treat!!

Thanks for sharing with us your experience, it was beautiful, both Tea house and performance. Can't wait to see more.
Amazing to see, thank you for sharing these wonderful moments. Much love from Scotland ❤️
This video reminds me one of my favorite Japanese series called "Osen san". Thank you so much for keeping showing us your beautiful culture, can't believe it's been more than 3 years since the first time I knew you on UA-cam. Love you ❤
Mesmerizing 😍😍😍
Thank you for the journey.
Oh my god ,I 'm lost in words
this was such a lovely video! thank you for sharing some traditional japanese culture, i really enjoyed the shamisen playing especially! i hope poor sutan's confidence grows so she can play with the maiko next time :)
Thank you for the video! Thank you for giving me a glimpse into the wonderful Japanese culture. Greetings from Budapest, Hungary. 😊🤗
This was wonderful experience an i love the atmosphere, thank you for the nice Video 🥰
Прекрасное видео! Замечательная поездка, хорошо,что вы знакомите ребенка с японскими традициями! Спасибо за интересное видео!
Thank you for this amazing video! Just watching was such a beautiful experience. ❤
So very beautiful and as always Sutan as well as your family are so cute. Love to see stuff like this of Japan.
モエさん、お素敵なビデオありがとう御座います🙏🏻私は妊娠するまで日本に住んでいて、そして主人の転勤でドイツに移動になりました。自分はロシア人、主人はアメリカ人で日本の事を大好きでビデオを見てとても懐かしかったです。息子は今2歳ですがもう少し大きくなりましたら是非日本へ連れて行きたいと思います、日本語も教えたいし😊モエさんは素敵な、丁寧なお母さんだなと思いました。今回のビデオを見て、原因が分かりました。そんな素敵なところで巣立っていましたね、ご主人も素敵な方で、ご家族はとても平和で、バランスが良くとっている雰囲気です。スちゃんはとてもラッキーな女の子ですね❤皆さんの幸せ、健康を望んでいます🙏🏻新しいビデオを楽しみにしています！
Always fascinating and enchanting to see Japanese culture, which is so different from my own. I’d love to visit Japan some day and see all the beautiful sights and neighborhoods belonging to it💘🌸
Watching your videos made me love Japan even more. I remember the days that I spent there and when I visited Kyoto. Japan will always be my second home. Such a wonderful place, rich culture and nice and friendly people.
Goodluck to you and your family. Keep making great videos with your family. 🥰
I miss Kyoto! I’m going in March 2023! Finally! Your video made me excited for my trip!
Absolutely stunning
Will treasure this video to watch again and again. Thank you so much 💓
I'm so glad I saw you in UA-cam shorts. I came to see what else you have in your channel and I really like what I find. This episode makes me feel that I get to see the Tea house and seea Geiko and Maiko performed live. It makes me happy. You have such wonderful family and Sutan is really cute. I love also that hotel you stayed. It looks warm and peaceful.
This is really fascinating. I felt like ppl who work in culture-related career that passed down through generations is totally amazing. They’re the knight of history, working to preserve valuable cultures to next generations.
Idk about japan situation but in my country, ppl who working to keeping old cultures be called ‘old school’. It’s not something everyone appreciated and not something that you can make money with. The social perception toward them is different from someone being ‘doctor’ ‘lawyer’ or ‘engineer’.
Which country you are from?
Think it's a beautiful culture n profession 2b proud of;)Love the fact that:Moto treats her with such respect*Congrats Moe(he's definitely a keeper)*God bless yr fam always;)*
Thank you for sharing some of your past with us. I remember reading upon the maiko culture and remember reading that they are a private group.
Thank you for showing us such beautiful, sweet things. ❤
Wow this is my first time seeing such a beautiful work of art! I love it! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing this experience with us, especially the visit to your old Ochaya. I've always wanted to experience that! Now I miss going to Kyoto even more, it's such a homey place for me
Beautiful culture and history. Thank you for sharing.
This is an amazing video of your trip! Your family and background is so cultured and I loved learning about it. Your daughter is also the cutest!
It is so nice how the outdoors can be incorporated with the indoors
