Just got my life inked. The tattoo is placed at the right side of my back. It’s a Koi fish which means love and affection. It is also a symbol of love and friendship in Japan. It is closely related to goldfish where in fact its style of breeding and ornamentation has become very similar. Actually, the Koi and tattoos of Koi are traditionally considered as lucky. The word koi comes from Japanese which simply means “carp” that also includes the dull grey fish and the brightly colored varieties.
