Description
Hello, my name is Mako, and I am a university student from Japan majoring in life science at Kyoto University.
I am very interested in sustainable agriculture, especially growing vegetables and crops in ways that do not harm the ecosystem. Although I do not have much hands-on experience yet, I am highly motivated to learn, absorb as much as I can, and do my best in every task.
I decided to join Workaway because I want to gain hands-on experience in organic and natural farming and learn directly from farmers.
My interest in natural farming has developed gradually over time through my daily life. Since childhood, I have been familiar with organically and naturally grown vegetables through my family, and I have always felt more comfortable in natural environments than in urban settings.
In high school, I watched the documentary “The Biggest Little Farm,” which had a strong impact on me and deepened my interest in farming within natural cycles.
I decided to take a leave of absence from spring 2026 and spend about one year WWOOFing and Workawaying. From April to July 2026, I'm planning to stay in a farm in Japan that practices organic and non-irrigated cultivation. After this experience, I am looking for opportunities to continue learning on farms abroad from August onward.
Thorough Workawaying, I would like to learn how farmers interact with their fields on a daily basis and broaden my perspective for my future.
I would be grateful for the opportunity to learn from you and be part of your daily life through sustainable and regenerative farming. -

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I am in good health and physically fit. I have been dancing regularly since junior high school, which has helped me build strength and stamina.
Also, I have been working part-time at a gelato shop in a natural food store for about three years, where I had the opportunity to be surrounded by organic products and learn about them in my daily work. I have also worked as a tutor for junior high and high school students for about two years. I enjoy talking with students and supporting their learning, and it was both enjoyable and meaningful. -
