牛舎が近く、特に6～10月は蠅だらけの狭小トレーラーハウスに住んでいます。シャワーのみ、浴槽もありませんし、狭小住宅ゆえプライヴァシーの確保も難しいですが、それらをokとお考え下さる方、どうぞご連絡下さい。
医療機関は充実していませんので、健康管理はご自身で御注意下さい。
埃が多い環境なので、鼻炎の方は、必ずアレルギーとして申告してください。
ご持参品は、洗濯ネット袋、肌着上下3～5組。防水靴（冬は防滑も）をお履き下さい。

Many flies fly around in our living room during June to October. Tiny trailer house is always messy and dusty.
Inform us if you are dust-allergic or nasal-inflamatory,as we have seen most of them always sneezing.
If you do not care about the matters above,please help us,mainly looking after our Japanese beef cows.
If you cannot speak Japanese,please help us at least a week.
As there are no good hospitals or medical doctors in this town,and medical bill expensive,please keep your health by yourself;not staying up late, waking up at least by seven in the morning,eat a lot of vegetables.
Bring your own laundry net bag,3~5sets of underwears,wear water proof shoes(non slippery in winter,too).
