    ***working holiday visa required***

    Hi there, thank you for viewing my listing.
    This is Makoto, the owner of the Guesthouse.
    I work for the guesthouse in a suburb of Tokyo, Japan.
    The guesthouse motto is -Enjoy Your Stay-
    It's not enough to have only a bed to sleep on to enjoy your stay; when I was enjoying it, there were many people with me.
    You can enjoy sightseeing, eating, and drinking more if you share the experience with someone.
    It's a good place to meet travelers here.
    It is a very good mood from friendly staff.

    Only friendly and kind people are available to work here.

    It's about 8 minutes walk from Kameari Station, JR line.
    It's located in a quiet area, a 10-minute walk to the river and big park so you can relax.
    In 3 minutes walk, there are 2 supermarkets, a lunch box shop, some small local bars, 2 convenience stores, and a sushi restaurant.
    It's a very convenient location to live.
    After traveling around 60 countries, I started working for this guesthouse to communicate, enjoy, and support travelers.
    I already know that the most important thing to enjoy traveling is communication with the roommate, and this guesthouse is the best spot in Tokyo.
    I hope you will be able to enjoy your work and stay here with the guests;)

    I am preparing to make a new guesthouse near Mt. Fuji.
    The new guesthouse will open at the end of Autumn 2026.
    It is under construction, and I have not fixed the date yet.
    I will have a free accommodation and drinks party in the new one to take pictures for online.
    Let me know if you are interested in it.
    I am on the way to fix the operation with my partner, I think I will need one or two staff there.
    It is located 5 minutes walk from Mt, Fuji station.

    I bought a house in May 2026 and will make some rooms for the cheap shared house.
    After preparing it, the staff needs work for the share house too.
    It is about a 15-minute walk from the guesthouse and about a 10-minute walk from Kameari Station.
    I will provide bicycles for each staff;)

    Let me know if you are in Tokyo and want to have a birthday party here with the guests here. Don't stay alone on your birthday in Japan!!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I like to go to an onsen and a local bar and restaurant.
    Let's go together!
    There are many guests from overseas, and they enjoy themselves together, so you will join and enjoy with them.
    There is no meaning in going sightseeing and taking pictures alone.
    I hold a cooking event in the guesthouse with the guests, so you can learn to cook Takoyaki, Okonomiyaki, etc.
    One of my favorite local bar owners is a member of the Omikoshi event member so you can find the festival easily, and I will take you and your roommate when it's near the guesthouse.
