Description

Hi! My name is Yuya, I’m 20 years old and I’m from Japan.

I’m currently in Argentina on a Working Holiday visa. I came here because I want to experience everyday life in Argentina, meet local people, and learn Spanish through real-life conversations.

At the moment, I’m still a beginner in Spanish, so I can’t speak much yet. However, I’m studying every day and I’m excited to improve by living and working with local people. I can also communicate in English, and Japanese is my native language.

I enjoy meeting people from different cultures, learning new skills, and trying things I’ve never done before. I like nature, simple living, animals, gardening, sustainable projects, hiking, cooking, music, and exploring new places.

I’m a responsible, respectful, open-minded, and easygoing person. I’m happy to help with gardening, cleaning, painting, maintenance, animal care, hospitality, or any daily tasks. Even if I don’t have experience with a specific job, I’m a quick learner and always do my best.

For me, Workaway is much more than a place to stay. I hope to make meaningful connections, learn from different people, and share Japanese culture while becoming part of everyday life wherever I go.

Thank you for reading my profile. I hope we can meet soon!

More details about my language interests
I’m a native Japanese speaker and I’m very interested in learning Spanish, especially Argentine Spanish. I’d also be happy to help others learn Japanese and share Japanese culture. I think exchanging languages is a great way to learn about each other’s cultures and make new friends.

More details about your skills

I enjoy practical work and I’m always happy to learn new skills.

Although I don’t have professional experience in farming or construction, I’m motivated, physically fit, and not afraid of hands-on work. I’m happy to help with gardening, cleaning, painting, maintenance, animal care, cooking, housekeeping, and other daily tasks.

I learn quickly, follow instructions carefully, and always try to do my best. I work responsibly, keep shared spaces clean, and enjoy being part of a team.

I also enjoy photography, creating videos, and drawing, so I’d be happy to help with social media, simple photo or video content, artwork, or creative projects if needed.

Before coming to Argentina, I worked in customer service in Japan, so I’m used to being polite, reliable, and working well with other people.

20

What else ...

I’m from Japan and have lived in Tokyo my whole life until coming to Argentina. After graduating from high school, I worked for about three years in customer service at restaurants, ski resorts, and amusement parks.

I came to Argentina because I’m interested in Latin American culture, Spanish, and everyday life here. I enjoy meeting people from different countries, learning new things, and sharing cultural experiences. I also like anime, drawing, cooking, nature, and football.

I enjoy both spending time with others and having time to myself. I’m still learning Spanish and sometimes use a translation app, but I’m motivated to improve. I’m happy to help with different tasks, learn new skills, and contribute to everyday life while staying with a host.
