Description
こんにちは！ドイツ出身のセバスチャンです。27歳です。初めまして！
For the past few years, I've worked as an IT specialist for a german company. In 2025 I switched my office job to online job to travel the world as a "digital nomad". I've only been to Taiwan and China before Japan has captivated me. I quickly fell in love with the people's kindness, the food and their language.
In autumn 2025, while working online, I did the "Shikoku Henro" pilgrimage (covering 88 temples). I completed the 1200km journey around the island in two months, halfway walking and halfway by bicycle. You may call me "O-Henro-san" now 🤠
Now in 2026 I want to move away from my computer and participate in permaculture / farming projects instead. My parents used to live in self-sufficient communities in the countryside. That inspired me to do Workaway. So I got me the "working holiday visa" and returned to Japan in March. Currently I am visiting a language school in Naha, Okinawa 🏝️ Soon I'm ready to start off my Workaway journey.
I'm really looking forward to connecting with locals, to using my broken Japanese and to contributing to meaningful projects.
追伸: I'm also a drummer, so let's jam in case you're playing any instrument 🪘🎸 -
