I had a great time in Kamakura! Everyone was very kind, and there is always a good amount of other volunteers to meet. Meals provided were also amazing. I will say the description for this experience is a little off, as there may be morning shift (which lines up with breakfast, so timing is not bad) that you may also have to work, depending on the hostel your shift is at. You also stay at a volunteer house, and only at the hostel on your shifts. Overall, I'd say that this was a great first Worldpackers experience and I would love to come back in the future!

I had an amazing experience in Kamakura. It's a beautiful city, and Kuni is a really nice host who makes the best food! At the volunteer house, I met incredible people from all around the world. I highly recommend this experience and hope to come back again someday

The experience was unforgettable! Kuni and Ai-san were incredibly welcoming, the night shifts were straightforward, leaving me plenty of time during the day to explore the city. The volunteer house had a family atmosphere, and I loved sharing meals and experiences with other volunteers. Speaking of meals, the food provided by Kuni, Ai-san, was really good & delicious. Thank you to everyone at Junx & Kamakura for making this a memorable chapter of my journey. I'd recommend this opportunity to anyone looking for cultural immersion, and a chance to explore a beautiful part of Japan!

I worked every other day, dinner at 5:30 pm at Wander Kitchen, 7 pm start at the hostel, 11 am back for breakfast and the shift ends. Your schedule will depend on how many people are there. Work couldn't be easier, just checking people in and out of hostels. You will have to sleep at one of the 4 hostels half the time. Otherwise there is a volunteer house just a couple train stops away. Most will sleep in a big dorm. Groceries are paid for by the organization, so you could stay without spending a dime on food. Kamakura itself is a tourist trap, that being said the beach was always great.

The work here is the biggest plus! You work in up to 4 different hostels (I got all 4) and you get a meal before and after shift at the main restaurant. Kuni and his wife are lovely and make good food! The cons of this stay are, nmthe house you stay in is a 40 minute walk from the main kitchen area, or 20 minutes if you get the train (and pay), the house is worn down, there's no dryer so if the weather's bad good luck drying stuff, there's NO WiFi in the house, you have to walk up a big hill to get to the house, there's no official cleaning so its a mess. But the other volunteers really madeit

Kuni and Ai-san are amazing cooks and the meals they provided were absolutely delicious!! The work is easy and the paid staff are wonderful! The accommodation was fine but there were a few things that are worth knowing. The house is a separate accommodation that does not have working wifi and is quite old so there is damage and some mold. If you're lucky you can get a wifi signal for a few minutes but it's not reliable. There is only 1 shower and toilet but 10-12 people living there at a time. Overall a great stay and I would work there again, the good far outweighed the bad!

My experience with Kuni was okay. Contacting Kuni takes patience. He takes a while to answer. Which I can understand to a length. When it was my time to arrive, I was trying to contact him and I was almost impossible. Getting to the volunteer house was also a mess. The address he sends you, is hard to find. Also the volunteer house does not look as it is in the Pictures. It's kinda messy and not very clean. I felt very uncomfortable at the house.
