Descrição

~Based in the beautiful Westfjords, Iceland since March 2023~
~Currently planning a trip to Norway~

Góðan daginn! My name is Mio from Hiroshima, Japan :) Five years in New Zealand, close to two years in Australia, and now, I find myself in an entirely new corner of this magnificent world - Iceland!

I hold a valid visa allowing me to reside and work in Iceland, along with a kennitala. Personally, I'm keen on working within Iceland's farming and fishing industries.

My aim is to explore and experience as much as I can while working hard and saving money for my future journeys.

My experiences so far in Iceland have been varied—I've assisted with lambing season on a beautiful countryside sheep farm in spring, and helped harvest eider duck downs for another family in early summer at beautiful beach. Exploring the Westfjords has been an absolute joy, and I feel incredibly grateful to live and work in this part of Iceland.

During summer I had wonderful opportunity to move to the East and work as a quality controller for Icelandic seafood company. Being able to live, work and explore all over the East side of Iceland felt like a dream! After the season, I managed to hitchhike around the whole country with a friend and hiked the gorgeous Landmannalaugar!

Before coming to Iceland - I spent 6 weeks in Germany catching up with my friends and I also stayed at this beautiful farm in a rural part of Lower Saxony - where I spent my magical 2 weeks with horses and helped around with the farm/guesthouse and home.

When I was back in Japan due to the pandemic in the recent years - I travelled and worked for agriculture farms and fish processing factory (harvesting sugarcane and processing them to make brown sugar in Okinawa islands, assisting local fisherman with harvesting Japanese kombu seaweed in Hokkaido, harvesting broccoli, processing salmon fish, codfish, scallops etc). I worked and travelled from the Northernmost part of Japan to the Southernmost, Easternmost islands and parts of Japan! I had the most wonderful time working and traveling around Japan, getting know more about my beautiful country.

Another amazing opportunity I had was to do a huge 6 months road trip around Japan - until I received my granted visa to Iceland and here I am excited and prepared for the wilderness!

In New Zealand and Australia, I primarily worked in the hospitality sector, including roles in restaurants and cafes. Additionally, I was once working for Oxfam NZ as an outreach campaigner, also spent 3 months working on a strawberry farm in Australia.

Love exploring, eating & connecting :)
Interested in cooking, handcrafts, gardening, plant growing, baking, herbs, music instruments etc!

Feel free to reach out to me! I would love to get to know you!
Thank you. Arigatou. Danke and Takk Fyrir!

Great communication skills, positive and hard working nature. I am a pretty organised person, open minded and easy-going! Until I started doing farm works in the past 3 years, I used to work in hospitality fields mostly - connecting with people it is my pleasure and joy, I also have big appreciation and love for nature and animals.
