    Description

    I would like to live a traditional and natural life as much as possible while running a small business. I am interested in history, nature, architecture, animal , learning language, meeting new people, cultures, cooking ( natural vegetables) , gardening.
    We live in middle size city ‘ Nakatsu city’. My city has Nakatsu castle, some old temples.
    Nakatsu city is near Beppu , the most famous city for Onsen.
    I am open minded , full of curiosity, easy going.
    I live with my daughter at my traditional house at the current, but some times come back and gather my family.
    I have a dream that I do agriculture and permaculture , natural life in the near future. So I got the farm for that already. I need help to start agriculture on this long-standing farm . This farm is a little far from my house, so we can only go once or twice a week. But the workin at this field is hard work. So I would like to need a male helpers. Other days I would like you to help at back yard garden .just now we are building a small cabin house in my mountain field.so I want a man who have a carpentary skill.
    It will be difficult for us vegetarian and vegan, sorry.
