Hello!
We are Brad and Aisha, a couple from the UK (England and Wales).
We’re about to embark on a year long trip travelling around Japan on a working holiday visa, starting in May 2024. We’re avid travellers who love to explore the world, try new things and meet new people. This will be our second long term trip we’ve taken together, having travelled around Europe and Southeast Asia together in 2022-2023. We’re outgoing people who love to explore the world, we love nature, science, films, books and good food! We have a vast experience in customer facing roles and LOVE to work with people. We’re entirely flexible with our trip around Japan and hope to use our Workaway experience to try new things, develop our existing skills, meet new people and fully immerse ourselves in Japanese culture.
We’re available for both long term and short term work and look forward to meeting hosts and travellers alike!Interessengebiete

Was könntest du arbeiten?
I have a masters degree in chemistry, and Aisha has a bachelors degree in Biological sciences - we are both keen scientists and love nature. We have both previously tutored students in our chosen subjects and love to help people learn and develop their scientific skills. We both spent the summer working a busy festival season around the UK, working behind the bar and serving drinks at fast paced, incredibly busy environments. Previously we have worked in hostels in Krakow, Poland and Hiroshima, Japan. In Poland, our roles involved managing the dinner service for guests and ensuring the dining area was prepared and cleaned down to a high standard every night. In Japan we undertook general housekeeping roles, including cleaning, bed making, managing check ins/out, taking payments and even training of new staff members. In both hostels we ensured guests were involved in group activities and helped them make the most of their stay.
Professionally we have a vast experience in Customer service roles - We are highly organised and LOVE working with people and the public. We are both keen to immerse ourselves in the cultures we encounter - in preparation for our upcoming trip to japan we have been learning Japanese online and are really excited to develop our Japanese linguistic skills during our trip! We both love cooking - and while we've never cooked professionally, we love making meals for our families and friends and learning new recipes! Aisha is becoming a keen travel writer, having started a small travel blog when we travelled through 2022-23, she hopes to keep this up and document her trip and experiences around Japan.
Ultimately, we're willing to try anything and we're always up for learning new skills! We'll always strive to do our very best in whatever we can put our hands to! We've now even spent time doing manual labour/farm work and Surveying of Japanese Giant salamanders and their habitats. We're always excited to try new things!Alter

Was noch ...
Ultimately our biggest passion is travel - we've undertaken a few long term backpacking trips together and love exploring new cultures, foods and and meeting new people. We have worked, lived and studied together and work particularly well as a team! We're both nerdy and love reading and watching films. We love nature, walking and particularly love to be near the sea. Aisha has a rather extensive knowledge of marine life - particularly octopuses which she loves and had the pleasure of studying during her degree. We LOVE a good quiz and are known as particularly great pub quiz hosts in our local pub!

For starters, the hostel itself is one of the very best we have stayed in, not just in Japan - but all over the world! The hostel has a homey, intimate feel and has a great mix of Japanese and foreign guests from all over the world, making it the perfect place to meet new… read more
特に彼女たちの接客は非常に印象的でした。常にゲストに対してフレンドリーで、思いやりのある対応をしてくれるだけでなく、自発的に行動してくれる点がとても助かりました。忙しい時でも自ら進んで仕事を見つけ、ゲストのニーズに応えるために細やかな配慮をしてくれました。こうした姿勢はホステルにとって非常に貴重であり、おかげで私たちのホステルはさらに居心地の良い場所になったと感じています。
彼女たちのように自ら進んで動き、積極的にゲストとコミュニケーションをとる姿勢は、ホステルにおいて非常に貴重。もっと長くいてほしかったぐらいです。
They truly have wonderful personalities and brought so much positivity to our hostel. I was so impressed by them that I even wrote a blog about their exceptional character.
Their customer service was especially remarkable. They were always friendly and considerate towards our guests, and their willingness to take initiative was incredibly helpful. Even during busy times, they proactively found tasks to do and paid close attention to the needs of our guests. This kind of attitude is extremely valuable in a hostel environment, and thanks to them, our hostel became an even more welcoming place.
What really stood out is that they truly understand the core value of what a hostel is. They embraced the communal spirit and contributed to creating an inclusive and friendly atmosphere for everyone. With their excellent customer service skills and cheerful demeanor, I’m confident they will continue to bring joy to many more people in the future.
I SHOULD HAVE OFFERED LONGER PERIOD TO YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
