Following in the footsteps of his idol, Matsuo Bashō, Buson traveled through the wilds of northern Honshū that had been the inspiration for Bashō's famous travel diary, Oku no Hosomichi (The Narrow Road to the Interior). He published his notes from the trip in 1744, marking the first time he published under the name Buson. Buson died at the age of 68 and was buried at Konpukuji in Kyoto.

  • Around the age of 20, Buson moved to Edo (now Tokyo) and learned poetry under the tutelage of the haikai master Hayano Hajin. After Hajin died, Buson moved to Shimōsa Province (modern day Ibaraki Prefecture). Following in the footsteps of his idol, Matsuo Bashō, Buson traveled through the wilds of northern Honshū that had been the inspiration for Bashō's famous travel diary, Oku no Hosomichi (The Narrow Road to the Interior). He published his notes from the trip in 1744, marking the first time he published under the name Buson. After traveling through various parts of Japan, including Tango (the northern part of modern Kyoto Prefecture) and Sanuki (Kagawa Prefecture in Shikoku), Buson settled down in the city of Kyoto at the age of 42. It is around this time that he began to write under the name of Yosa. There is speculation that he took this name from his mother's birthplace (Yosa in the province of Tango) but this has not been confirmed. Buson married at the age of 45 and had one daughter, Kuno. From this point on, Buson remained in Kyoto, writing and teaching poetry at the Sumiya. In 1770, he assumed the haigo (haikai pen name) of Yahantei (夜半亭, Midnight Studio), which had been the pen name of his teacher Hayano Hajin. Buson died at the age of 68 and was buried at Konpukuji in Kyoto.
