  • Description

    Hi! We’re Grace and Dylan, a friendly, adaptable couple who love meeting new people, discovering new places, and learning about different cultures. We both have several years of experience in hospitality and customer service, and we enjoy working together to create positive experiences for others.

    Grace has worked across a variety of hospitality roles, from pubs and cafés to weddings and events, and loves being part of a team that keeps everything running smoothly. She’s outgoing, organized, and happiest when she’s active, outdoors, and surrounded by good people. She’s especially excited about spending time in Japan, having grown up hearing her mum’s stories from the JET Program and visiting once before.

    Dylan is hardworking, sociable, and calm under pressure, with experience in busy bars, restaurants, and nightclubs. He enjoys learning new skills, working as part of a team, and is always willing to help out wherever needed, whether that’s behind the bar, serving food, helping in the kitchen, or general maintenance and cleaning. He brings great energy, reliability, and a positive attitude to any role. Having lived in Japan when he was younger and visiting a couple of times with family he is eager to further embrace the country, culture and cuisines.

    Together, we’re motivated by new experiences, teamwork, and meaningful cultural exchange. We’re both easygoing, proactive, and ready to get involved in whatever’s needed, whether that’s helping in hospitality, events, or day-to-day support roles. We’re excited to contribute, learn, and make genuine connections wherever we go whilst experiencing Japanese culture more deeply through daily life, work, and language.
