Description
Hi, I’m Miki 😊🇯🇵🌱
I’m from Japan, and I value respect, responsibility, and attention to detail. I’m adaptable and genuinely enjoy embracing new cultures and different ways of living.
I’m especially attracted to a lifestyle with chickens, vineyards, vegetable gardens, and fruit or nut trees — where I can be involved in growing, harvesting, and appreciating food. Being close to the process of producing food helps me feel gratitude in everyday life.
I truly enjoy physical, hands-on work and being active outdoors. Working with my body and contributing in a practical way feels meaningful to me.
I’m also learning social media management and video editing, and I’d be happy to help with simple, natural content creation or storytelling if needed.
I love animals 🐕, nature 🌿, yoga 🧘♀️, cooking 🍳, and exploring local neighborhoods 🛒. I prefer longer stays so I can fully immerse myself, contribute sincerely, and build meaningful connections. -

What else ...
I feel happiest when I can work hard during the day, take a refreshing shower, enjoy delicious food, and appreciate peaceful moments surrounded by beautiful nature.
For me, traveling is not only about visiting places. I enjoy learning about new countries and cultures through daily life, working with local people, sharing experiences, and understanding different ways of living.
Through Workaway, I hope not only to help, but also to learn, gain new perspectives, and continue growing as a person 🌍 -

What a good, good, experience
This was my first Workaway experience, and I’m grateful for it. Originally planning to stay for just a month, I quickly felt comfortable and ended up extending my stay a bit longer than expected. Christian, along with his guests and the ambiance of his place, is truly charming, and it’s no wonder there are repeat … read more
