Ayami and Teiko

By Artborghi @artborghi

Today is the day!

We turn twenty only once, isn’t it?

Memories of this day have to be conserved…

… many memories …

… and of course shared!

We then visit the Temple to take a peek on our future …

and if we pick bad luck, we leave it bound to the gates.

Sometimes we dream for a moment of relax …

… but we have to keep movin’on: our adult age has just started!

This fictional story of Ayami and Teiko is to illustrate the turnin’20 of Japanese girls, who then wear colorful Yukata through the streets of Kyoto and Tokyo to celebrate the event. Click to zoom in and remember how your 20s were… or will be! This photo series is part of the reportage Japan of mine.
