Help
We bought a traditional Japanese home in 2020 two hours north of Tokyo in a beautiful neighborhood of Nasu, Tochigi. We are slowly converting the property into a farm, dog run and wood workshop over the next year. We would love to get your help in doing that transformation.
We need workawayers with experience in carpentry, gardening and painting. Bonus points for someone with experience in handling tools like hedge trimmer/chainsaw. In addition we also need help with maintaining the home and cooking.
