The Experience

I am looking for some helpers to maintain apt. rooms, baths/toilets and any public places. Each one can work 2 hr/5 days a week with flexible time. I prefer our helpers can stay for 2, 3 months. Besides staff w/o salary, I am looking for a person who has a working visa, college degree and can live in Komae, Tokyo for one year from Oct. I am willing to pay for 60,000yen (est. US$400) with free room.

It was really great, I met a lot of people from other countries and locals during my time here. The cleaning work is honest, 5 days a week and depends of the task. I had time to visit Tokyo and surrounding with other volunteers. I, 100 % recommend the guest house to volunteer. I am, even considering coming back in autumn. Thank you Kaz for this opportunity.

My experience at the guest house was absolutely amazing! The place is well-located, and has a very welcoming atmosphere. Everyone was so kind and respectful, and I felt at home from the very first day. I'm truly grateful for this opportunity and would definitely love to come back in the future!

My stay in Komae was amazing! Two months flew by and I had the best time:) The other volunteers were super nice, communication with Kaz was also easy and always respectful. I would recommend this place to everyone who wants to experience bustling Tokyo as well as the quieter area outside of tokyo:) 10/10
