[ I searched for this topic & I couldn't find one but feel free to move it ]

1) Has anyone ever met a real Geisha or Maiko?

2) Has anyone ever spoken to a real Geisha or Maiko?

3) Has anyone ever seen a Geisha or Maiko in person?


If anyone has an answer to any of my questions I would love to hear about it! ( even if you've only seen a real Geisha in person)
Thanks everyone!

Nothing thus far? Sore wa... :oops:

...ummm, guess that's why we all joined this here Board in the first place, didn't we? :cry:

This line hits my mono no awareness really hard. Sorry I can't help you out with some delicious Melissa-esque story... and just where's the ol' ancestral short sword again?

This is the last remaining geisha of Yoshiwara, Minako Ne-san. She will be 90 next month. She always teases me 'How can you play the shamisen so well, in spite of being a foreigner? 外人の癖ね!'
