  Beschreibung

  We are a family of four: me, my husband, our 7-year-old daughter, and our 1-year-old son.
  
  For comfort and privacy reasons, we only host female volunteers at this time.
  
  We live in Hizen-Nagata, a quiet and nature-rich area in Isahaya City, Nagasaki Prefecture. Our home is surrounded by beautiful countryside, making it a peaceful place where you can relax and experience rural life in Japan.
  
  The nearest city, Isahaya, is about 15 minutes away by train. It is also close to Nagasaki City, which is known for its international history, sightseeing spots, and beautiful scenery.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Our family also participates in a local cultural exchange community where local children, families, and international volunteers spend time together through games, crafts, outdoor play, and seasonal activities.
  
  We usually visit a few times a week, and you will be welcome to join us.
  
  • Tuesdays (10:00–14:00): toddler program with our son
  • Wednesdays & Thursdays (15:00–19:00): kids program with our 7-year-old daughter
  
  The schedule may change slightly during Japanese school holidays.
  
  This is a great opportunity to meet local families and international volunteers while experiencing the local community. There are sometimes weekend gatherings or special events as well.
  
  Our family is open and friendly, and we enjoy spending time with people from different cultures.
  
  We also enjoy outdoor activities, traveling, and taking sauna and onsen.
  
  I enjoy cooking Japanese home-style meals and baking sweets, and we can sometimes cook or bake together.
  
  I hope you will enjoy interacting with local children and families, sharing cultures, experiencing Japanese life, and being part of our community.
  
  Please note that we are only able to accept female volunteers for this position.

  Unterkunft

  Room/
  
  You will stay in a private room.
  The space is about 10 square meters and can be separated to create a comfortable and private environment.
  
  You will sleep on a comfortable Japanese futon, and have your own space to relax and keep your belongings.
  
  
  Meals /
  
  We provide food for our volunteers, but our meal style is simple and relaxed because we are a family with young children.
  
  • Breakfast: Help yourself to bread, cereal, fruit, eggs, etc.
  • Lunch: Feel free to cook something for yourself using ingredients in our kitchen.
  • Dinner: We usually share dinner together as a family.
  
  Dinner time is a nice moment for us to talk, share cultures, and enjoy time together, but during the day you can relax and manage your own schedule.
  
  ※Dietary Requirements
  
  Because we are a busy family with young children, we usually cook simple home-style meals.
  
  For this reason, we may not be able to accommodate special diets such as vegetarian, vegan, allergy-specific, or elimination diets. Volunteers will generally eat the same meals as our family.
  
  If you have any dietary restrictions, please let us know in advance so we can discuss whether our home is a good fit for you.
  
  Thank you for your understanding.
