My name is Roberto… To many, I am also known as Robbie, Berto and Bob. To my Post Office I am “Robereto”, but let’s leave as the Bonsai Kid for now.

I decided to create this blog space to have a register of my Bonsai technique development… Basically, my partner PJ is allowing me to use scissors and other ‘dangerous’ stuff without supervision.

Beside the whole range of articles and curiosities I will post, I want to have fun with this “living art“. Because I am someone who needs a theoretical perspective on everything I do, I enjoy searching online for bonsai groups, individuals and other blogs from people just like me: crazy about chopping bits and pieces of wood.

Jokes side, I do respect trees a lot. Trees have this enpowering symbolism of patience, wisdom and strength. Bonsai is timeless. Walking around a Bonsai garden gives you the recharging and peace of mind that any urban life requires… And that is a part of what this art is about.
