Left by host (Help maintain and create ...) for Workawayer (KOKORO)

We were truly sad to see Kokoro leave. My daughter cried for an hour. She is welcome back any time we have space for her, and I hope it's very soon. She has so many different kinds of skills to offer a workawya host, and is a very pleasant and intelligent person. She even plays ukulele (after being here with us :).

This review is in both Japanese and… read more English.

約1ヶ月間こちらでお世話になりました。豊かな自然の中でゆっくりとした流れる時間を求めている人には、本当におすすめの場所です。

午前中は、畑仕事、建物の掃除、ホームページや動画作成などを主に行い、午後はホストファミリーとの交流はもちろんのこと、地元の方との交流で釣りや観光、BBQなど、本当に充実した毎日を過ごすことができました。

そしてボランティア場所の「邦久庵」という茅葺き屋根の建物には絶景が広がっています。晴れた日、雨の日、夕陽、月など状況によって変わる邦久庵のテラスでの時間は、どれも美しく、心が落ち着きます。読書、瞑想、ヨガなど自然を感じて心を休めたい人はぜひここに訪れてほしいです。

都会では感じられない体験がここにはたくさんあります。そしてなにより、とっても温かいホストファミリーがいます。一緒に色んな体験をしたり、いろんな場所に連れて行ってくれました。たった1ヶ月でしたがまるで本当の家族のように感じています。とっても充実した1ヶ月をありがとうございました！心から感謝しています。また会いに行きますね。

I stayed here for a total of about a month. This workaway site is highly recommended for those looking for an experience away from fast paced city life flow and who want to get in touch with the slow rhythms of nature.

I worked in the fields on sunny days, cleaned the building on rainy days, and created homepages and videos on rainy days. I enjoyed interacting with my host family in the afternoon, fishing with locals, sightseeing, and having BBQs with local people.

And you can enjoy a superb view from the thatched-roof building, called the the place which is where volunteers mostly work. The terrace or deck on the hok which changes depending on the situation, such as sunny days, rainy days, sunsets, and beautiful moons, is beautiful and calm place. So if you want to feel nature and rest your mind, whether it's reading, meditation or yoga, come here.

There are many experiences here that you can't feel in the city. Above all, there is a great host family here. They had different experiences together and took me to different places. It was only for a month, but I felt like I was part of a real family. Thank you for a fulfilling one month! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'll see you again.
