Hello!
My name is Ken, and I am a 25-year-old from Japan.
After studying architecture at an art university in Japan, I started traveling in May last year while volunteering on farms in various European countries. I am particularly interested in sustainable ways of living, and at the same time, I am expanding my worldview by sharing time with local people and cultures.
This is my first time using Workaway, but I have previous volunteer experience on farms in seven countries, including Finland, Lithuania, Switzerland, and Italy, through a website called WWOOF.
I love mountains and nature, and in Japan, I enjoy hiking and skiing while camping.
I am still learning English and am not fluent yet, but I can understand work instructions and have simple daily conversations.
I am confident in my physical strength and can do basic DIY tasks, take care of livestock, and cook some Japanese dishes.
I am looking forward to meeting you!Interests

From the morning after I arrived, we jumped into the fluffy snow, went snowboarding, built a tent sauna, and even did some fashion modeling—experiences I never imagined I would have.
The nature in Syöte National Park was beautiful, full of activities,… read more
