Tours to Japan

Sharing my love of the crafts of Japan is part of my everyday life. People write asking where they might go to find basketry or bamboo ware, what to read in advance of a trip to Japan and where the good flea markets are.

In 2004 and 2006, Esprit Travel & Tours organized Bamboo & Basket Arts of Japan tours with Nancy Craft (Conde Nast Traveler Magazine "World's Greatest Travel Specialist" for Japan, 2003, 2004 & 2005) and myself (author, Bamboo in Japan) as co-leaders. What a great time we had introducing the participants to our favorite craftspeople, temples, flea markets and villages. Bamboo, of course, was everywhere in its myriad uses.
