This was my first time applying for a volunteer position,and I couldn't be happier to have been selected by the guest house and to become part of this community. I'm truly grateful to Audrey, Ai, Andra and all the staff, as well as the other volunteers, everyone here is incredibly kind, welcoming and always willing to help. the guest house really feels like a big family. The work is well organized, clearly divided and very easy to learn. Beyond the work, there are frequent volunteer activities and even free Japanese classes. I highly recommend the guest house to anyone and I would absolutely come back again!

I can't reccomend the guest house enough! It is now and will always be my home away from home. All the staff, as well as the other volunteers will have a place in my heart forever! With volunteering, the job hours are very fair, and they were always open to day-off requests or whatever you need. Staying at the guest house is one of the best choices I've made and I'll definitely be going back if I can!

I had an absolutely wonderful time volunteering at the guest house in Hirakata. From the moment I arrived, the entire staff was incredibly welcoming and kind. The sense of community here is real; I made so many amazing friends, and there was always something fun to do with the group every single week 💖 amei!

One of the best experiences of my life! Hirakata is a really convenient place to stay. Some of the volunteer spaces need a bit of work, but they are working on it. Everything was clean and comfortable anyway. The job itself was easy and the agreed working hours were respected. But the most important thing was the family I found. The sense of community in this place is the main reason to apply for this volunteer. Group activityies are organised every week, and you'll meet locals and other travellers. Ai chan and Audrey are great hosts, who helped and took care of me from day one. Thank you! ♥️

The school was filled with fun people, my experience with them was very relaxing! Hanging out in the lounge, going on day trips and Izakaya hopping are a formula for a very good time. The two ladies running everything, Audrey and Ai-Chan are possibly the most fun and nice people you can encounter in life. When something is up, they will try to help you with whatever needs to be done to ensure a comfortable stay. Together with the other volunteers and people who rent rooms there it felt like a fun and comfortable make-shift little family ;) Highly recommend!

I've been in the school in december and the experience was amazing. Working schedule is 3 hours per day, from 11 am to 2 pm, 5 days a week. Job is easy and vibes are great. The team of workers and other volunteers will make you feel at home. The House is placed between the school and Kyoto and you can take the train whenever you want to get to any of bouth cities in just 30 mins. so placement is great if you want to visit touristic places or just explore the region. I think the school will suit you It doesn't matter what you are looking for, a warehouse to explore the area or a community to be part of.

My time here has been wonderful, everybody from the staff to the volunteers made this experience something I'll never forget. The work hours are respected to the exact minute, so at 14 you put everything down, which I found really nice and very respectful towards the volunteers. The shared space is very nice, and I spent so much time in the lounge just hanging out. The kitchen space is also pretty big. Overall the school felt like a big family to me, and I couldn't be more thankful for everything 🙏🫶.

The school was my first volunteering experience and I couldn't have asked for a better place! Everyone is so welcoming and kind, and we spent time together as a group going on trips or just chilling in the lounge. The hostel is also very close to the train station and it's only 30 mins to either Kyoto and the school, and there's plenty of time in the afternoon to explore each city which I loved. The work was very fair and enjoyable, mainly focusing on cleaning guests rooms and the common spaces. I couldn't recommend the school enough and I would love to come back one day!! :)

My experience at the school was amazing. I stayed for a month and a week, and it became one of my favorite experiences in Japan. The atmosphere was super warm and friendly, and I always felt at home. The tasks were easy to manage, and the people I met made everything even better. I'm really sad to leave, but I hope I can come back someday. I truly recommend this experience to anyone. ✌️😋 すごい❗
