Description

Hi there!

My name is Mayo (my-oh). I'm a dual Japanese-American citizen, born and raised in New York City. I'm a painter/photographer/creative-type with a love of cooking, the environment, and connecting with people.

I've wanted to go back to Japan for a while now, as it's been 10 years since I've visited but alas COVID and life derailed me. I'm really looking forward to finally taking the time to further explore and understand the country and culture more deeply.

I actually used Workaway once, a looong 8 years ago to travel by myself during a gap year I took before college. I stayed with various Workaway hosts in the U.S., Spain, France, and the UK and really had an amazing time. So with those good memories, I've returned to the platform.

I have a good sense of humor, a good attitude, and will be more than willing to help with the things you need/ask for :)

In terms of work experience, I've worked on farms, in education and with kids, at a cafe, administrative work, and have been trained to bartend. Please let me know if you have any other questions!
