Description
Hello!
My name is Chizumi.
I live in Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture. It's famous as a pottery town,
and is a city with international exchange, home to Chubu Centrair International Airport.
It's a convenient city, yet it's also rich in nature, with plenty of sea, bamboo groves, and fields.
I love traditional Japanese houses.
I run a vegan cafe in a traditional house, and the reason I decided to become a Workaway host is that
I own a 130-year-old house for personal use, and I wanted to work with people interested in Japanese architecture and renovation to make it beautiful.
I also hope to connect with people interested in Japanese vegan cuisine, fostering learning and interaction.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I can offer ideas on vegan cooking, as well as simple renovations using sustainable materials. I would also like to exchange ideas about renovations and learn about methods used in different countries. I can teach Japanese through conversation. If you want to learn Japanese, I can correct your Japanese and teach you the correct way to say things as we have many conversations.
Help
I'd like to paint the walls of my traditional Japanese house together, maintain bamboo groves to make firewood and charcoal.
I want to use as many donated items and natural materials as possible, and do environmentally friendly home improvements.
