Message from Lady Baba
I am a landlady at the teahouse Kaikaro in Higashi Chaya-gai Geisha District and I go by the name of Lady Baba.
I am so passionate about sharing the tradition and hospitality of Kanazawa Geisha and Geisha district culture with the world that I learned English in order to deliver my speech at
"Geisha Evenings® in Kanazawa" with my own words, not through an interpreter.
I look forward to meeting all of you who are interested in the art of Kanazawa Geisha at my teahouse.
