Description

Hi!
We're Cal & Emma, we're currently travelling and working in Japan, taking a year out before we set up our own glass blowing workshop when we get home.
We are both Glass Artists (ガラス職人) from the UK.

Cal is from Wales and Emma is from England. We finished studying a Masters degree in London in 2025 and working at a university in the south of England. We met studying in our bachelors degrees eight years ago and we've been working together ever since. Cal did Workaway a few years ago and it was amazing! So we wanted to do it together.

We love travelling and have been fortunate to have worked in Glass Studios all over the world, even on a tiny tropical island in the Maldives!

We love nature, hiking, movies, but most of all making things! We draw, we paint, we carve, we sew, we weld, whatever it is if it means using our hands and learning something we love it.

We're pretty well versed in all things hospitality and retail. We have both had multiple years working in various jobs across the hospitality and retail sector on top of our glass careers. We've worked in coffee shops and cafes, shops, bars and pubs and in a 5* resort hotel.

We have a Working Holiday Visa and international driving licenses and want to experience life in Japan as much as we can, meet lots of new friends and exchange culture with people. We're open to all types of work and we want to see parts of Japan off the beaten path.

Hope to meet you soon!

Plus de détails sur les langues qui m'intéressent
Were very interested in learning as much Japanese as possible! Emma used to live in Denmark and found the only way to learn was to immerse yourself. We would love to teach and practice English with people as we are native speakers. We have extensive experience working with second language English speakers and lots of experience with teaching art workshops.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

We are both Glass makers by training and professionally for the last almost 10 years. We've worked making glass, teaching classes and demonstrating our craft to the public all over the world. Working in, and running small workshops means you have to be very practical and learn new skills fast! Running a studio on a remote island in the Maldives meant we had to be pretty self sufficient, self motivated and happy to have a go at anything!

Here are some of our skills that you can put to good use:

Working with people:
We've taught hundreds of people from all over the world, we love meeting people and were good at talking to people of all backgrounds and all ages. We have a lot of experience working with small close groups on projects and it can be super rewarding.

Building and Making:
We've built all sorts of equipment and tools, furnaces, furniture, lighting etc. We are both comfortable using hand and power tools, have experience with most types of welding, some joinery and some blacksmithing. We've been practicing artists for 10 years so you name it we've tried it.

Cooking:
Calum loves to cook, always trying new recipes and techniques.

General Help!:
Most of all were keen to help! Carrying, cleaning, digging, sweeping, painting, dog walking, babysitting, whatever it is were happy to help and we love learning new things.
