Message To WWOOFers In Japanese
私たちは、自然豊かな田舎でゲストハウスづくりに取り組んでいます。宿として完成された場所というよりも、訪れる人たちと一緒に少しずつ育てていく、発展途中の場所です。
お手伝いは、朝10時頃お客さんがチェックアウトされるので、その後ベッドメイキングや掃除、洗濯、チェックインするお客さまのお迎えなど、ゲストハウス運営に関わる日常的な作業が中心です。難しい仕事はありませんので、経験がなくても大丈夫です。昼間はお米農家さんの所で仕事もしているので、そちらに来て頂いたり、地域の方たちと共同で作っている田んぼや畑のお手伝いもお願いしたいです。
ここでは、ただ作業をするだけでなく、田舎暮らしや移住、これからの生き方について語り合ったり、地域を散策したり、自然の中でゆっくり過ごしたりする時間も大切にしています。
宿にはさまざまな地域や国から人が訪れるため、新しい出会いや価値観に触れる機会もあります。
こんな方におすすめです。
・自然の中でのんびり過ごしたい方 ・ゲストハウスや宿づくりに興味がある方 ・田舎暮らしや移住に関心がある方 ・人との交流を楽しみたい方 ・肩の力を抜いて新しい体験をしてみたい方
特別なスキルや経験は必要ありません。大切なのは、お互いを尊重しながら楽しく過ごそうという気持ちです。新しい暮らし方や価値観に触れてみたい方との出会いを楽しみにしています。
Message To WWOOFers In English
We are creating a guesthouse in a beautiful rural area surrounded by nature. Rather than being a completely finished place, it is an evolving project that continues to grow together with the people who visit and stay with us.
The main tasks include making beds, cleaning, doing laundry, welcoming guests, and other daily activities related to guesthouse operations. No special skills or previous experience are required, and beginners are very welcome.
During the daytime, we also work with local rice farmers. Depending on the season and situation, you may have the opportunity to join us there or help with rice fields and vegetable gardens that are maintained together with members of the local community. This is a great chance to experience rural life and connect with local people.
Here, we value not only the work itself but also the opportunity to share ideas about countryside living, relocation, and different ways of life. You can spend your free time exploring the local area, enjoying nature, or simply relaxing in a peaceful environment.
People from different regions and countries visit the guesthouse, creating opportunities for cultural exchange, meaningful conversations, and new perspectives.
This place may be a good fit for you if you:
Enjoy spending time in nature
Are interested in guesthouses or hospitality
Are curious about rural living or relocating to the countryside
Enjoy meeting and connecting with people
Would like to experience something new in a relaxed atmosphere
No special skills or experience are necessary. What matters most is a positive attitude, mutual respect, and a willingness to enjoy the experience together.
We look forward to meeting people who are interested in exploring new lifestyles, new perspectives, and meaningful connections.
