    Hello!
    We are a Japanese family living in the beautiful countryside of Nagasaki, Japan.
    We live on a 6 acre farm property, so we want to make the best use of the space in a sustainable way so we can enjoy it with family and friends.
    We are a relaxed family and look forward to welcoming new friends to our home! I can speak English, but even without strong English skills, my husband and kids also love interacting with workawayers!
    Hope to see you soon,
    Nozomi, Tetsu, Maruno, and Tsukino!
