Beschreibung

Hello! I'm Koki from Osaka, Japan.

I used to work at a Japanese company for about 5 years — experienced both engineering and HR stuff. After that, I wanted to learn English and see the world to broaden my horizon. And then I decided to study abroad in Canada, did a working holiday in Australia, and ended up traveling to around 50 countries as a backpacker.

I love traveling, but honestly what I enjoy the most is just hanging out with locals and getting a feel for how they actually live. I'm also really into learning languages.

Here I've experienced a lot of new things — like looking after kids, doing house renovations, farming, and sharing our different cultures. Looking back, I've made so many unforgetable memories through these Workaway experiences.

I can teach:

Authentic Japanese cooking techniques and recipes from my hometown Osaka
Basic Japanese language and useful phrases for travelers
Insights into Japanese culture and customs

I'd love to learn:

Local cooking styles and traditional recipes from your region
Your language and cultural perspectives
Hidden local spots and stories about your city

vom Host (Lend a hand around my home ...) für Workawayer ()

Kokichi spent a short week and a half here and was a great help, both with the planned garden work, house work and the unexpected repairing of the deck. He is a quiet and respectful person, was very flexible and willing to move from one project to another and engage whole heartedly with the changing weather and needs as they arose. He is great … read more

I had a great experience with Catherine. She always took care of me, and we did many things, like going to an Irish pub, seeing real musical events and visiting the historical place called Tara.

We also attended her family member’s birthday party. It was brilliant moment that I experienced their party style.

During my stay, she shared a lot of … read more

Suma is awesome! She is easygoing and very welcoming. I had a wonderful time talking with her about travel. I wish I could have visited during her less busy season so we could have tried playing board games together. I hope we can play board games together someday. Thank you so much!

I had an amazing time with Lu, Lee, and Rita over the course of three weeks. They are so easygoing that I never felt stressed at any point. I mainly helped with painting the walls of the house and occasionally did some weeding. The schedule was very flexible, allowing me to have entire days off after working full days previously. The most … read more

I had an excellent time here for 2 weeks! We helped with some house chores like cleaning, weeding, and sanding the doorways in the morning. The host, Maree is like a real mam. She always treated us as a family. Sometimes, we watched movies together in the living room all day. Also as there are some adorable cats here, I played with them. I'd like … read more

Kokichi was really helpful for us. I really couldn't ask for more. He was good with the household and house rules, and could find ways to help with the garden work. He is welcome back anytime we have space for him.

I had a great experience with this project. I tried to plant something I wanted to eat like carrots, lettuces, onions, and so on in the garden. It always brings me calm and relaxation here. Another volunteer and I usually had a nice time reading books, trying meditation, and eating lunch after morning work here. The host family is very kind … read more

Kokichi stayed for around a month and worked hard for us whilst here with a variety of land based tasks. He was also very helpful to have in the house to cook for others. He is honest, reliable, poilite, friendly and always did what was asked of him. I would recommend to others.

I had an excellent time for 1 month. The sharehouse I stayed in was surrounded by a lot of nature which are such as the sea, cherry blossom, bamboo forest, and so on. The star at night from Itoshima is breathtaking. I usually went to the cafe around the sharehouse with other volunteers after we finished the task in the morning. Surprisingly, there … read more

I stayed 2 weeks in this workaway. I had an excellent memory. I could learn about organic agriculture and a sort of life. This experience was very helpful for me because if I suffered from life, I realized I could come here. The manager Shiba-san is so kind. If I will be a freelancer, I want to be back and learn about organic agriculture more. … read more
