  Descrição

  I live in a 200 year old traditional Japanese house nestled in the peaceful countryside of Daigo, Japan. Surrounded by lush nature, this home is an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, offering a taste of authentic Japanese rural living. The house combines traditional architecture and historical charm with modern comforts, making it welcoming for workawayers looking for a unique cultural experience. Here, you can experience the rhythm of rural Japan, with nearby hiking trails, beautiful landscapes, and a close-knit local community. My hope is to share this special place with people who are open to connecting with nature, exploring Japanese traditions, and enjoying a slower pace of life. You can help me with daily tasks, general diy, renovating the house and maintain the large traditional garden. My hope is that my home will offer a memorable stay in the heart of Japan’s countryside.

  My place offers a unique cultural exchange rooted in the beauty of traditional Japanese life.

You’ll have the chance to experience authentic Japanese living in rural areas of Japan.

  You will have your own separate sleeping area. The living area, small kitchen, and bathroom are shared with one or two other workawayers, allowing you your own space and convenience.
  You will sleep in a tatami room, experiencing Japanese-style comfort, with a cozy kotatsu (heated table) to keep warm during cold days.

  Please try to keep it clean as much as possible. You can freely use the laundry machine and vacuum cleaner as needed.
