Regarding the use of translation software: Our guides are proficient in everyday English conversation and basic Mandarin Chinese. However, to facilitate communication with a wider range of people, we also utilize translation devices for explanations. This enables us to overcome language barriers and foster easier communication with non-English speakers, promoting a more relaxed atmosphere for interaction.

The pronunciation or meaning of the participant's name if you could provide this information in advance, it would help me select more suitable kanji options, making the workshop proceed more smoothly

What you'll do

Are you looking for a uniquely Japanese experience during your stay in Fukuoka?
I invite you to join an engaging and meaningful workshop that blends creativity and tradition. In this workshop, you’ll have the chance to explore the art of kanji calligraphy. Share the pronunciation of your name, the name of a loved one, or any word you’d like to see transformed into kanji. I will suggest a few kanji options that match the sound and meaning, and together, we’ll create your kanji masterpiece. After the experience, I will serve you a small selection of traditional Japanese sweets and tea. To complete the workshop, you’ll receive your handwritten kanji and a printed version of your creation, framed as a poster—a special souvenir to take home with you. About the Owner: Nice to meet you. I'm a mother with experience living in both Australia and Taiwan. I've traveled to over 10 countries, enjoying both solo trips and guided tours. However, I've found that connecting with locals enriches the travel experience significantly. Fukuoka is a fantastic city with a harmonious balance between urban and rural life. Allow me to curate your time here to ensure it's as valuable as possible.
