Message To WWOOFers In Japanese
私たちは環境にやさしい生活をしたくて江田島に移り住みました。
ここで自家菜園をし、手作り石鹸を作り、ときおりイベントを開催しています。。
この島に来る人が安らげる空間を作り、身体によい食事を素晴らしい自然の中で提供したいと思っています。
また、マインドフルネスの生活の中での実践を心掛けています。
自分や他者を大切にし、異なる文化背景を持つ者同士が理解尊重し合えるように、平和活動のボランティアやマインドフルネスのクラスを提供しています。
ワンシードというNPO法人を創設し、主に教育分野へマインドフルネスを紹介する活動をしています。
数年前に、私たちは新しい場所を入手し「オハナヴィレッジ」と名付けました。
この場所を美しく心地よいものにするための様々なお手伝いをしてくださるとありがたいです。
ガーデンの整備や簡単な大工仕事、掃除や料理、イベントの手伝いなどです。
あなたのパッションとスキルをどうぞ分かち合ってください!
この島はとても美しいところで、特に海に沈む夕日は最高です。
波の音を聴きながら、ゆったりと暮らしを楽しみながら手伝ってください。
また周りの人と関わったり、自分の体験を分かち合ったりして滞在を楽しんでください。

We moved to Etajima some years ago for the ecological living.
We have vegetable garden here and we make handmade soap.
We would like to create a space for visitors to relax.
We provide healthy food, too.
We also have regular mindfulness classes.
We have our NPO called OneSeed to share Mindfulness into education field.
We wish people in different culture can understand and respect each other.
We got new property a few years ago, called Ohana Village.
We need help in differet areas, in various ways to keep the place beautiful and confortable.
For example maintaining the garden, handy jobs, cleaning, cooking, helping the events.
We would be very happy if you share with us your passion and skills!
You may feel a little inconvenient as we live in an old fashioned house.
But Etajima is very beautiful place, you can see wonderful sunset over the ocean from here.
Please enjoy this peaceful atmosphere while you stay and help us.
It will be a heart relaxing opportunity to listen to the sound of ocean and breath the fresh air.
And please share your own experience with us. We are looking forward to learning and growing and sharing with you.
