Tomio Tomita runs a bonsai center (besides many other things) in Joinville, Brazil, which is somewhere between Sao Pauo and Porto Allegre. Every year he invites bonsai enthusiasts from all over Brazil to an encounter during the Flower Festival of Joinville. I was so lucky to have been invited this time. It was my frist time in Brazil and it was gret. People are so open and freindly. They have theri way of starting to plan about one minute before the event but I am used to this from Italy. I certainly want to come back eventually.
Thank you Timio for your hospitality and thenk you Valdir for helping me and Hanna so much.
