Bjorn I’m of Japanese heritage but 4th generation in the USA. You are more in tune with the Japanese aesthetic and culture than I am. I have always admired your work and your great teaching videos. You are going to the heart of Japanese aesthetic and culture in the jewel that Kyoto is. You will bring new blood to Japanese bonsai with a fresh modern western perspective. That can only make bonsai art even better. Much success to you and your family.

Having been intrigued by Bonsai since the age of 5, I decided it’s time to explore the art. Now at triple 20, I decided to research and learn the art of Bonsai. You guys have been a recent part of my learning process and I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve seen. Wishing you great love and success with your new adventure. I will continue to follow you. ✨🌟💚🌟✨

I was hoping to come visit you in Nashville but I understand why you are moving. Actually, I am envious. Well, I've always wanted to visit Kyoto. Maybe I will visit you there someday. My former English professor at college loved Kyoto and I saw many photos of the Zen gardens there and heard stories about it thanks to him. I've had flight layovers in Osaka and Tokyo when traveling to and from China and a couple times was tempted to take the bullet train to Kyoto but was concerned I wouldn't make it back in time for my early morning departure flight the next day.

Great decision, sell all your trees, start new! Try to get out of the bubble of your admirers, get as much critical feedback as possible. Do not only focus on teaching others, focus more on teaching yourself. Delve deeper into caligraphy and ink painting. Spend as much time as possible in japanese gardens, monasteries and nature. I admire all what you have achieved, but feel that your journey is at its beginning. Glad to see it is going in the right direction.

It's wonderful to hear about your plans, Bjorn, to return to Japan in 2024 and establish Eisei-en Kyoto Bonsai Garden. Your decision to bring your expertise and fresh Western perspective to the Japanese bonsai scene is both exciting and promising. It's this kind of cross-cultural exchange that can lead to innovative approaches and enrich the art of bonsai. As you embark on this new chapter, I encourage you to fully re-immerse again yourself in the unique and rich bonsai culture of Japan. Let's collaborate with local bonsai professionals and enthusiasts that will undoubtedly yield valuable insights and contribute to the continued growth of bonsai as an art form. Moreover, I'd like to extend an invitation for us to meet again and visit us in Saitama City, when you have the opportunity. It would be a pleasure to catch up and discuss the exciting developments in the world of bonsai. See you soon and good luck!
