My house is an artist house, like Wonka's chocolate factory. I and my husband are living in this Gingerbread house like Hansel and Gretel.
I wonder if I am going to die too love motif of sweets !
(I'm obsessed with fake sweets.)

Notice:
I’ll move to Tokyo after my exhibition at Kyoto station from August 6th to 11th. So I can host CS guests in my house until August 2019.

If you’d like to keep your traveling money :
You can do hitchhiking from around Ritsumeikan University, Kinkakuji to Keihoku also. Because the way of north of University becomes Route 162.
Keihoku area is on Route 162.
I have had some guests of CS that use hitchhiking from between Ritsumeikan University to Takao bus terminal.
They wrote "京北" on their boards.

Other:
I don't drink alcohol. If you are vegetarian or eat raw food, please tell me. I can cook them.

Location:
Keihoku area located on the way of JR bus so if you have Japan Rail Pass, you can free ride from Kyoto station/Arashiyama/Nijyo castle/Golden temple and so on!
If you don't have the Pass, it costs ¥1180yen. (From Kyoto station to Keihoku area takes 1hour and 20 min.)
My area is country side but don't worry about restroom, my house has western- style one .
