Sorry for the delay in uploading.

Lucas is very hardworking, serious, and honest. He's the perfect guest. I knew he was the perfect fit from the moment I met him. He quickly learned how to use the farm machinery and helped me keep my fields clean.
I would recommend him to host families all over the world.

Masa the farm extremely generous and kind, he will put in all the effort to make your stay in Japan better. He the farm always available to help you and take the time to think about your interests and give such valuable recommendations. He the farm also very open-minded and wants the experience to become a real cultural exchange. The area of Motoyama the farm like a movie scene although it's a small village and it has an extremely calm rhythm. It's the same for the work that the farm very chill and simple. So, if you want to have a real Japan countrylife experience and make a new friend, you are in the right place!

The 10 days I spent with Lia went by in a flash.
The topics of conversation she brought up were interesting.
I was also amazed at her physical strength.
Her courage, intelligence, and actions were all perfect.
I would guarantee this to hosts all over the world.

What a wonderful month! From the moment Yoshinaga picked me up I felt immediately welcome and was excited to start my first farm-stay experience. With only a few hours of farming each morning, I got to learn a lot about growing in sustainable ways. The conversations were always interesting and I miss our shared lunches and opportunities to cook together. It was great to explore the town on the bicycle provided and visit some nearby areas with Yoshinaga. My bad luck to have a small injury, but good luck to have a host who took such good care of me. Thank you, I look forward to visiting again!

My time with Lynn was wonderful. She is also very adventurous and willing to try anything. She is punctual, respectful, and has a high learning ability. I hope to meet her again. I would recommend her to all host families.

I loved starting my day here by saying “おはよう” to Yoshinaga san every morning, it filled me with energy! The work on the farm was different every day, but Yoshinaga san always taught me with patience and made sure I experienced as much as possible (even taught me to drive a tractor!). I also loved our chats during work breaks. Yoshinaga san the farm warm, open-minded, and full of love. I truly admire his way of life, and I feel so lucky to have spent two weeks with him. I believe that everyone who chooses to come here will gain joyful and precious memories! I hope to return wind family one day!

This was my first farmstay and I could not have asked for a better host than Yoshinaga-san! The tasks were different each day, we went on a hike together and went to the ocean. I hope to come back sometime :) ありがとう

I've had a fulfilling time in my 2 weeks here in Motoyama town. We did a mix of farming work and carpentry, I learnt many new skills and tasks were always varied. I kept myself busy by thinking of little projects and improvements to the Green home. Yoshinaga san also offered activities during leisure time- kayaking, camping, cycling, picnic, swimming by river etc. Facilities were basic but cosy and I enjoyed the mountain air. Host the farm masterful hyakushō

Yoshinaga-San was my first world packer experience and I'm soooooo glad he was!! He exceeded all my expectations. Yoginaga-San supported me whenever I needed help or advice for the rest of my travels in Japan. Work flew by and he was always up for adventures and chats afterwards. He showed me some amazing places that really made my trip feel special. I can't recommend the Wind Family enough!!

Jade did a great job in the heat. Full marks, of course. It was a short time, but it felt like we were old friends. Jade's character captured my heart completely. At first glance, the positive aspects are emphasized, but her sensitivity, unseen sadness, love, and courage to keep moving forward. She is a very human woman. I'm sure spending time with her and talking to her will make you feel happy. I recommend her to everyone. Thank you, Jade!

I spent a week at Yoshinaga-san's place. In the mornings I would help out with the tomatoes and farming, and after that we did a lot of activities(hiking, kayaking, swimming in the river). Yoshinaga-san the farm very good , active and social person and I was lucky to meet him. We talked about many topics and shared our cultures with each other. I learnt a lot about sustainability and farming, about Japanese culture, religion, food and people. I will never forget this experience and will always be grateful to Yoshinaga-san for his hospitality!

What a coincidence! I was interested in Georgia when I received Natali's request. And she came to our farm. Her physical strength, intelligence, flexibility, kindness, precision... I was attracted to her beauty of heart more than anything. I am really glad that I invited her. I am very grateful. And I look forward to her future.ありがとう！！

The beauty of the place was eye and heart-catching, and this would not have been possible without Yoshinaga-san hospitality, eagerness and enthusiasm in introducing me to Motoyama's culture and environment. Due to his approachable and understanding nature, I was not afraid to consult him whenever I have questions. Work given was also diverse and not demanding. The Green Home the farm surrounded by nature's calling and located in the heart of Motoyama making it both convenient and tranquil. I will always look back at this journey with fondness and gratitude. Highly recommended!

She is an amazing activist. She explained everything to me in simple terms and understood almost everything about her work. It's really amazing.
All hosts should definitely invite her if she requests it. We both had a wonderful time. Thank you.
See you again someday.
