Hello everyone,
My name is Marcelo, I’m Japanese Brazilian running our dream project at Shimanto area with Yoji san, we are looking for friendly, motivated and creative people to help us run our project here.
Looking for people who are whiling into help us with maintenance of the camp site.
Japanese nationals welcome
WE ONLY OFFER PAYMENT FOR WORKAWAYERS WITH WORKING VISA, PROPERLY REGISTERED YOUR RESIDENCE CARD AT THE TOWN HALL, GOOD HEALTH, TRUSTABLE, MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY prepared, someone that WHO WANTS TO WORK OUTDOORS.
WE ONLY ACCEPT WORKING VISA PLEASE SO NOT INSIST.
- ¥897 yen an hour, maximum 80 hours a month, maybe more during busy period.
- An online interview via WhatsApp is required if you are interested in working with us.
- We ONLY accept people with a WORKING VISA, NO EXCEPTION!!! If you would like to come as a volunteer we also accept WWOOFers.
- before you come, please make sure to deregister your residence card before come here and register when you come in to work with us.
- We also need a Japanese post office bank acct with the bank book.
- THE TIME THAT YOU LEAVE OUR PLACE MAKE SURE TO DE-REGISTER FROM THE CITY HALL AND SEND US A PICTURE OF IT.
.
-You need to be able to follow instructions and be a good problem solver, I will help with what ever it comes personally or at work, please communicate.
Our work right now is:
- Preparing and fixing wood decks and put up dome tents.
- Preparing the camp site, cleaning the forest and raking the trails, gardening and cleaning, digging. During Golden Week middle of April middle of May
- Splitting wood
- Cutting grass with the grass cutter
- Maintenance
- Setting up tents and cottages
- Painting.
- Artists always welcome as well.
We are a very unique place with an incredible location overlooking Shimanto river where it flows into the Pacific ocean. It is a remote area surrounded by a lot of nature.
Here we maintain three private and one public bath and prepare glamping tents/domes/cottages for guests. We need help setting up, cleaning and preparation for guests everyday.
When we aren’t busy there are many work projects to be done which includes maintenance, landscaping, construction, carpentry, or other creative projects.
You will be staying either in a room or in a tent inside one of the main buildings. It’s a very nice place with a big kitchen, incredible view and lots of space to relax, read or play music. There is a number of musical instruments here you can use if you like and a good collection of books. You can sometimes enjoy access to the Onsens when the guests aren’t using them.
It’s very beneficial to have an international drivers license here as you can use a scooter but please ask before you ride them. You will have to pay for your own petrol.
You work approximately 5 hours a day 5 days a week and are free to do whatever you want before or after those 4/5 hours and on your days off. Although I ask that when you are working you work hard/fast and are focused as there are lots of things to get done always. I want people who are able to work independently or in a team.
Nashishi is a beautiful beach about 15 min walk from our place. You can also walk down to the river as well. By car you can explore many beaches and if you like surfing there are many options. Here we have many surfboards, a sup and you are welcome to use them as long as you take care of them!!! Hirano is a fun surfing beach about 20 min drive. On days off you can drive/ride and explore more if you want.
Since we are in a remote area it is more quiet and like I said before we are surrounded by a lot of nature. You should be comfortable being around bugs, and it gets very hot in the summer/ cold in winter so be prepared for that as well, the best season would be spring and autumn.
There are grocery stores and shops about 15 min drive away.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks, respectfully, よろしくお願いします！！！
In our house we don’t discriminate we treat the same for a cleaning lady to the landlords, we looking for kindness and good wheel, let’s protect as much as possible the nature and there surrounds PLEASE !!
Let’s have fun together !!!
PS: We are looking for long term employment, 1 year or more, potentially sponsorship visa, if you are bilingual, has good health and has the keen to work outdoors please send your resume.
Marcelo, Yoji san, Kat and Connor.
