We are a Kiwi/Aussie couple with 2 small mountain lodges in Myoko. We love the outdoors and have a 2-year-old boy. We are looking for people who are happy to help with a range of different tasks, we need help, with cleaning, painting, light renovation projects, landscaping, cooking, and also website work/content creation. If you have any experience in any of these areas then please tell us about it as we love to work to people's strengths and passions.

We are currently looking ahead to our projects in Spring (a beautiful time in Japan) There will be availability in April and May at this stage for the right people. PLEASE NOTE: we will only accept requests for our Spring project from March 2024. As we are heading into the busiest part of our year we won't have the time to respond to any request until things quieten down. We wish you all a wonderful Christmas and a safe and fun NY we looking forward to meeting and chatting with you all in March.

Tayler, Neil and Finn :)

Yuko is amazing, she has a lovley personality and a very nice nature. Throughout her time with us, she was immensely helpful, going above and beyond, taking on translation tasks and facilitating the opening of a new bank account, which was a big help for us.

Yuko stayed for a couple of weeks and we would love to have her back anytime, we highly… read more

Taylor and Neil are incredibly kind, generous, and friendly people. Taylor picked us up from the train station and immediately made us feel welcome. Taylor tries to match your skillset and interests with the tasks you are assigned and we spent our time cooking for the family which was really fun since we love to cook!

We stayed 3 weeks with Neil, Tayler and of course Fin. It was the best workaway we had in 2 years. Neil and Tayler are both hard working, easy going, funny and positive souls ! We lived in a mountain hut surrounded by mountains and it felt like holiday as we had a lot snow too. We worked one day on day off which gave us a lot freetime to explore… read more

Neil and Taylor were awesome! Really amazing people who immediately made us feel welcomed. The accommodation was far more than we could’ve asked for and was very comfortable. They made us feel like they really appreciated our help. Work was varied, but we mostly did cleaning, wood staining, painting, laying floor boards, and moving furniture.… read more

Laura & Cristina were a good help, and great to have around, they are very inqustive and eager to learn they got stuck into some painting and plastering and other odd jobs helping with renovating our new Pizza shop before the coming winter. Looking forward to see you guys over the winter, we would highly recomend Laura & Cristina to anyone.

We had a fantastic time in Myoko with Tayler, Neil and Finn! We spent there 3 weeks and in the end we were sad to leave. I recommend this workaway and I would go there again in a heartbeat :)

The work was very varied, depending on your skills or the needs that they had at that time. In our case we cleaned, painted, plastered and cleaned the… read more bushes. Other people were doing more serious renovation work with wood, others were on cooking duty, others were cleaning the houses that they own for preparation of the winter season, among other type of work.

We work on a off everyday, so from the 3 weeks we stayed, 2 weeks we work 4 days (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday) and one week we work 3 days (Tuesday,Thursday, Sunday), and more or less 4 hours a day and in the morning (somedays were 5h and some days were 3h). Overall was very balanced and relaxed, as we had the evening off all days of the week.

During the 3 weeks of work that we had, we were from 7 to 12 workawayers in the house, but every couple had its own spacious and beautiful room (with its own sink) so in any moment it felt like it was too crowded. Basically we were sleeping in a newly renovated hotel rooms that will be used during winter season so it felt like vacations sometimes. Tayler and Neil are really kind and generous: we shared many activities together, playing Catan, bbqs, listening to music while working, etc. They had 4 cars so we could take the car whenever we needed to go explore the region or buy groceries, that was amazing on their part and a huge game changer on our experience in Myoko. If we wouldn't have a car, it would have been harder to experience the beauty of Myoko, although not impossible as there are many things to do there as well.

Myoko is fantastic in Autumn, it was beautiful to see how the foliage was starting to change from green to yellows and reds. We saw many wild animals around the region while hiking or during our night adventures to the supermarket: foxes, squirrels, ferrels, wild pigs and even one big deer.
I would recommend to climb Mount Myoko, it was an amazing hike! Also Togakushi shrine, Naena falls, and visit Nagano!
Go to Narus for cheap sashimi and go to the pond to enjoy nice bbq with friends.

If you like nature and you like quiet life in the mountains, go to Myoko! If you are lucky as we are to share the space with many workawayers, don't be afraid, we were people ranging from 22 to 50 years old and I believe we had an amazing time together! Thank you Tayler and Neil, we will come to see the results of all the renovation on January and eat pizza in the pizza shop! Hopefully we will recognize Finn, he is growing so fast! ^^
