Hi, this is Misaki from Japan! I’m so excited to share lots of beautiful experience of workaway with you.
Description
Hi!! My name is Misaki from Japan.
As a brief introduction, I am currently working as analyst at digital advertising agency in Japan and like what I do.
However, I really missed the experience and time of workaway which I have done 5 times in New Zealand so came back here.
(Please see some feedbacks from past hosts :) )
What I like the most about workway is meeting new people, exchanging each experience, culture, and language, and staying in local. I feel more exciting in those time than just signseeing.
I'm a responsible, open-minded, friendly, hard-worker, and positive person. I can entertain myself in any places with limited access!
I like hiking, exercise, cooking, beach, reading books, and I'm a big fun of coffee :)
As I’m still working as full time job, my maximum stay would be 2 weeks if work is during the day. However, if it is flexible such as 3 hours in morning and 2 hours in the evening, I appreciate if I can stay longer as from my experience, 2 weeks is still not enough to know each other more.
I'm very looking forward to meeting you!
Thank you!

She spent a month with us and became like a member of our family.
She has a fantastic attitude – positive, hard-working, and willing to learn. She was amazing with our two kids (9 and 5) – and always had time for them and their games. She's also really interesting to talk to… read more
Thank you for an amazing 1 month and Coromandel trips for 4 days.

I planned to stay for 3 weeks but it turned out 1 month.
During my stay, they took me to Coromandel where I really wanted to go, and celebrated my birth day!!

Thank you for accepting me for 10 days.
I helped mostly weeding, gardening and cleaning and it was flexible and plenty of time to explore the island.
They were busy for the guests.
To be honest I didn't feel so welcomed and I hope I could have much time to talk.
However meals Deborah made with the fish Andy caught were sos… read more

From the first day, I felt so welcomed by Saskia's warm hug and soon I could get used to their family.
Also Shane welcomed me the raw fish the… read more
I’m sorry that I didn’t write feedback even though I left your place 2 weeks before.
First of all, thank you so much for accepting me and an amazing time!!
