I will be staying in Japan for a month from June 28th to July 28th and work as a workawayer for the first two weeks. From July 22nd, I need to go back to Tokyo to attend the Fuji Rock Festival!

Descripción

Hi, my name is Love. I chose this name because it sounds just like the pronunciation of my Chinese name. I’m currently taking some time off work to study languages and do some self-exploration. I hope to find what I want to commit to along the way, and I'm always ready for a cultural exchange with all kinds of people—even if it turns into a friendly debate! haha.

Having traveled to many countries, I now make it a habit to read up on the books and history of the place I'm heading to next. In my free time, I climb, play badminton and tennis, do yoga, and practice calisthenics. I'm also a huge fan of movies and music. Whenever I travel, I always plan my trips around local music festivals like Fuji Rock or Primavera Sound, and I never miss a chance to catch a film in a local independent theater.

**Activities & Interests and what I'm eager to help with**
- Farm Life: I’m fascinated by rural living and love being around animals. They always bring me a sense of peace, and I’m eager to give that same care and energy back to them.

- Plants: I’m a dedicated Caudex plant enthusiast, currently caring for 15 different species at my place. I love raising them, writing about them, and I definitely have the patience and enthusiasm needed for gardening.

- Charity & Community: I’m drawn to local social projects where I can feel the energy and connection of a community. I previously worked at a neighborhood coffee shop where we actively supported community initiatives like stray cat rescues and music-sharing events.

- Outdoor Adventures: I love hiking and exploring nature to unplug from the internet. And yes, I love getting a good tan!

- Writing & Oulipo: I find beauty in the smallest details of life and love writing about "everything and nothing." I’m a huge fan of Oulipo (Ouvroir de littérature potentielle)—the French literary movement.

- Street Photography: I’m an avid street photographer. My style focuses on the human element and urban life—capturing those fleeting, authentic moments between people and their environment.

**Why Me?**
This is my second time using Workaway, and I know I truly thrive in this lifestyle—working outdoors, home cooking, and having long conversations after dinner.

In my daily life, I handle about 80% of the household chores and make it a habit to cook breakfast every day. I'm tidy, efficient, and proactive. I’d love to have intellectual exchanges about Art, Social Sciences, and Anthropology. If you’re looking for a helper who is both handy in the kitchen/garden and great for deep conversations, I’m your person!

My Skills & Expertise
I’m a proactive and versatile helper who believes that "seeing the work" is the most important skill. Here is what I can bring to your home:
1. Household Management & Cooking (Proactive & Tidy)
• Cleaning: In my daily life, I handle 80% of the housework. I’m very organized and have a high standard for cleanliness. I can help with deep cleaning, laundry, and organizing spaces efficiently.
• Culinary: I have a dedicated habit of cooking breakfast every day. While I’m not a professional chef, I’m a passionate home cook who enjoys the process. I’m happy to help with meal prep or share some authentic Chinese home-style dishes with you!
2. Gardening & Plant Care (Caudex Enthusiast)
• Specialized Knowledge: I am a collector and grower of Caudex plants (块根植物). I understand the patience and precision required to care for unique and delicate species.
• General Gardening: I’m comfortable with weeding, watering, pruning, and general garden maintenance. I find working with soil very grounding and rewarding.
3. Animal Care & Manual Labor
• Animal Lover: I’m very comfortable around dogs, cats, and farm animals like sheep and chickens. I’m happy to help with feeding, walking, or cleaning animal enclosures.
• Physical Strength: I’m in good physical shape and don't mind getting my hands dirty. I can help with wood-cutting, moving heavy items, or any outdoor labor required.
4. Language & Cultural Exchange
• Mandarin Teaching: As a native speaker, I’m happy to teach Mandarin or help you/your children practice Chinese through natural conversation.
• Deep Conversations: I have a background in Social Sciences and Anthropology. I love discussing Art, culture, and societal observations. I’m a great listener and enjoy meaningful intellectual exchanges after work.
5. Creative Skills
• Photography: I’m an experienced street photographer (Humanities focus). I’d be happy to take some beautiful photos of your home, pets, or garden as a gift during my stay.
• Writing: I’m a creative writer (and a fan of the Oulipo movement). I can help with any English-Chinese translation or creative content if needed.
