Nishikigoi In Hawaii
(2009)

My Nishikigoi Experience
 
Just back from Japan after a great three year experience living abroad.  Unfortunately, Nishikigoi turned out to be not very accessible, nor a priority while my family and I were in the country.  Thats okay, we really enjoyed and took advantage of everything else that Japan had to offer. 
 
Now that we are back home, I can work with better local resources and a permanent place to live, I can roll up my sleeves and dive into my very first pond and filter set-up as well as try my hand at caring for a couple Tosai Nishikigoi. 
 
Below is the start of my hands on experiences with koi keeping and water maintenance.

Nishikigoi In Japan
(2005 - 2008)

My Nishikigoi Experience
 
One of the reasons that I sought to relocate to Japan was for the opportunity to be closer to the nishikigoi experience.  I couldn't have been more wrong.  Since arrving in Japan, it has been really difficult for me to make any trip to the countryside to visit farms.  Travelling to Niigata or Ojiya is something that is not easily or economically done (My oversight).  Japan is GIGANTIC compared to our little island of Oahu.  Nonetheless, I have been slowly gaining knowledge on the best ways to travel in and around Japan.  Still, living in Japan is THE greatest experience I've ever had.
