    Description

    I run a Turkish cuisine restaurant next to my house.
    This is my last call for volunteers.
    This time, I'm looking for someone to draw and paint picture or graphic on the wall in front of my restaurant.
    I would like volunteers to be professionals, not amateurs, or people who are good at drawing as a hobby.
    I would like you to draw a picture that would look good on Instagram etc...
    These are the conditions we look for in people who want to come this time.

    And these are our introductions below


    *・゜゚・*:.。..。.:*・*:.。. .。.:*・゜゚・**・゜゚・*:.。..。.:*・*:.。. .。.:*・゜゚・**・゜゚・*:.。..。.:*・*:.。. .。.:*・゜゚・*

    There are three people in my family, my mother, my daughter and me.
    I have a dog inside and a cat outside.
    I am a restaurant owner and an English instructor.

    My house is a detached house, and the volunteer room is on the first floor and separate.
    My cat "Kuromi" sometimes comes, so it would be helpful if you could get along with him.
    The toilet is outside, but I think you can relax and use it as it feels like a private toilet.
    There is an air conditioner in the room, but I ask volunteers to avoid using it as much as possible. This is because it is quite cool even in the summer, so a fan alone is enough to beat the heat.
    The volunteers who came last year did not use the air conditioner at all. However, we have an air conditioner for customers at the store, so if it's hot, you can cool down when you come in the restaurant.

    I don't usually make breakfast. You need to buy ingredients to prepare your own breakfast.
    Coffee and tea are available, so please bring your own.
    We eat dinner together, but if you want to eat in your own room, that's fine.
    I will provide dinner, but please prepare your own food and drinks.
    I am the owner of Turkish Cuisine, but I am not Muslim, so the food is not Halal.

    Below are the conditions and requests we ask of volunteers.
    Be a non-smoker and an animal lover.
    It's okay to be a nomad, but it's a problem if you lock yourself in your room and work.
    Only those who are aware that they are staying at someone else's home will be willing to come forward and tell us if they behave as if they are using the property instead of a hotel.
    Please remember to express your gratitude and words of gratitude.
    We say things like "thank you" and "please" all the time. If you can't communicate, please don't come.
    Greetings are also important. Be sure to say hello, especially in the morning.
    Many volunteers have come so far, but sadly there were some who didn't even say "thank you" after a long drive.
    It would be a problem for such people to stay at home, so I ask them to leave.
    When you do something, if I don't give you an explanation, please be sure to ask us.
    Please don't do it yourself.
    Please bring your daily necessities.
    We also do not lend towels.
    You can do your laundry at my place.

    Beppu is close to where I live, so I can take them there for sightseeing.
    Also, there are many festivals in the summer. I think you can take them to festivals and experience traditional Japanese events.
    You can also get information about experiences that travelers may not know about and take them with you.
    However, since I run a restaurant, I am often busy on the weekends and don't have much time.
    In that case, I can use my road bike to go to nearby places like Yamakei.
    However, there is a weight limit for road bikes up to 80kg, so it will be difficult for people over that weight.
    However, there are several buses a day, so you can take them to Nakatsu and go to Kitakyushu and nearby towns.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The room type that I provide volunteers above.
    My hometown is landed a country side in Fukuoka. It's surrounded mountains and there are rice fields around my house.
    It's really quiet in the night. A lot of stars in the sky at night.

    I have a road bike. Volunteers can go sightsee by themselves.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    My place is much far from Fukuoka city. Please don't think that I am living in Fukuoka city.
