CNBC covered my Ikebana experience for tourists. Here is the video.
We tried Airbnb’s new trip experience platform

I’m doing 2 kinds of Ikebana experiences especially for tourists who are from other countries through Airbnb.

3 hours experience is here Ikebana and delectable Macha

2 days experience is here Exquisite Ikebana
I’d like to show some scene of my Ikebana Experience.

Showing around my neighbor area. My apartment is built on a long shopping street and this kind of  traditional shopping  street is rare even in Tokyo.

After Ikebana time, I will make Macha ( tea ceremony green tea) in front of guests with a bamboo whisk.

Every time I meet  new guests, I am inspired by diversified backgrounds and culture they have. I can get enough of interaction with the world!
