Descrição
We live in a lovely village in Okayama Prefecture. There is a 100-year-old traditional Japanese house with tatami floors and a kotatsu (a heated table), and when you open the sliding doors, you can enjoy a beautiful view. There is also a bamboo forest, offering a great opportunity to experience the charm of the Japanese countryside.
Your main role is to play with our two daughters (ages 9 and 11). They do not understand much English yet, so please use simple words when speaking to them. Our older daughter loves physical activities, so we especially welcome someone who enjoys being active and playing with her. Our younger daughter can be a little sensitive and may seem younger than her age. When she is in a bad mood, talking to her using her favorite stuffed toy usually helps her feel better.
We would like you to speak as much English as possible with them. You do not need to have prior experience working with children—just a love for kids and an enjoyment of playing together is enough. We hope our daughters can learn about different cultures and values, so it would be wonderful if you could also share your skills with them.
As we also host guests, you will be invited to join events where you can experience Japanese culture together. Depending on the season, there are various countryside activities:
* Spring: digging bamboo shoots
* Summer: joining local festivals
* Autumn: harvesting fruits and making jam
* Winter: cutting and burning bamboo
You will stay in a wooden dormitory and sleep on a traditional Japanese futon. There is a well-equipped kitchen in the main house that you are free to use.
Since we do not provide meals, the usual activity time is set at about 3 hours per day. However, on special occasions such as holidays or English camps, we may ask you to extend your helping time to about 5 hours for that day. In such cases, we will make adjustments—such as providing meals—and plan activities that everyone can enjoy without putting too much strain on your health. Thank you for your understanding.
Regular schedule: about 3 hours a day, 5 days a week.

I would highly recommend this workaway!! Kida San and Nao Chan are great hosts - friendly, kind, happy, and easy-going! The work is enjoyable, and mostly includes preparing meals, looking after their young daughter, and other odd jobs. Plenty of time is left for relaxing and walking around the countryside, and they even have a laptop, projector,… read more

This is an awesome place! Theyn are really nice people, Tae-chan is the cutest baby I've ever met, and I've had a great time with the other volunteers. The work schedule is good: there are enough different things to do, but still plenty of free time. I loved the food parties, short trips in our free time, being creative with food - the food in… read more

Thank you family!
I really enjoyed my 2 weeks in here.
Communication was quick and clear. The house is very beautiful.
Meeting the students was very interesting.
I recommend a visit to Narutaki Forest park for a beautiful walk.
You can enjoy the countryside and visit Okayama city on your day off.
Thank you for hosting me!
