    We have an 11 year old boy and are a Muslim family.

    Our son is an active boy and would love to play with you :)

    Our target is Zero Waste & Low Energy, especially minimizing plastic usage. However, this is still in progress until we are self sufficient for our daily needs.

    We learn by cultivating small organic gardens (veggies & coffee!) and plan to renovate an abandoned house for guests using recycled material.

    We are in the process or opening a restaurant, using our own vegetables, to serve the community.

    We are looking for guests who can align with our vision. Bonus points for those who have an idea of DIY/permaculture using recycled materials or similar.

    We are in a remote area, however, if our schedules match, we can bring you to Jaxa rocket center, onsen, and much more! Conveniently, the beach is less than 1km from our house.

    Our location is in Kagoshima Prefecture・Kimotsuki town・Kishira.
    Our town is famous for a rocket launcher and space center called Uchinoura Space Center(20 min by car)and Sea Turtles commonly lay eggs on the beach from May to June.

    Due to we want to run less energy and minimize operations cost in our living styles.please use energy ,water and any resources as less as possible. for food and bath we use public water, and use free water for others need.

    Meal:moslem meal(no pork and alcohol ,and they derived material) .

    Due to I work from Monday to Thursday, we need our guest to help independently base on my target for halfday(3-3,5H)
    and take full day holiday between those day.

    And Friday to Sunday help time as: Friday: 3H Saturday: 5H Sunday:3H

    guest must arrange their arrival on thursday night/fiday that i can show the job by independently for weekdays program.

    (we dont accept smoker&couple guest for now)

    Holiday are usually decide by weather (we don’t work when it rainy day or change inside work)

    animal: cats(living freely inside &outside house) @dog (indoor)
    chicken(outdoor)
    (Please be concerned for guest whom has allergies or some problems with animal)

    We ll share tasks for one week sometime ll change a day before or we need you do by yourself.
    be honestly to communicate if any unclear direction & method.

    Our activity can be check on our instagram for our activity
    Please feel free to ask us for the link

    After you contact us, we would like to take pre screening document and video call on zoom,skype or whatsapp to talk detail further.

    Wa aren’t native in English but we try hard to communicate as can as possible.

    Guest do not need to speak Japanese now but we find whom have a will to learn .

    Your stay at our garden & renovate house will be a real homestay, which means that we will be sharing everyday life. Therefore it is important that you are willing to adapt to our daily rhythm.

    VERY IMPORTANT: Please notice that when we host helpers, we count on their contribution to the help in the garden and house renovation , tasks can be tough and physical, but it is also rewarding, and we will always make sure you are enjoying yourself during your help and free time. This is a true exchange, not a vacation. We are looking forward to hosting serious and motivated helpers! We treat all our Workawayers with respect and as if they were a guest in our home.

    *My volunteer program on help is close to the farming help exchange program so I don't accept the people who are looking for just free accommodation and foods like a homestay. Also make sense that your effort is help me in self sufficiency and prepare food for next guest like food chain system. And the schedules depend on the weather condition , at rainy day may indoor activity (DIY/maintenance )or we ll inform to take holiday.I wish you can understand what I want to request you.

    we are really grateful for you for reading our page.
