I had such a fun month in aoshima at the guest house and met some amazing friends from around the world. The work is very chill and toshi explains everything well and keeps to the schedule. You get loads of free time to surf go to the beach, hang out with the other volunteers explore the rest of Kyushu.

Aoshima is a beautiful place. Toshi makes you part of the family and diligence and respect go a long way. Work is uncomplicated, though I was here towards off-season. You can easily settle in to the small-town surf life and even big-city people will find it hard to leave the great community, laid-back atmosphere and doorstep-access to the beach. Miyazaki may be modest but your time is what you make of it: surf, explore, bond with other volunteers and locals, and Aoshima can become more a home than a holiday.

The experience of volunteering at the guest house was so much better than I imagined. The work is very easy and is often over in less hours than expected. The other volunteers really made my stay enjoyable, whether through card games, movie nights or just the general fun environment that we had. Surfing is a huge plus as it's the perfect activity for this place's vibe. Toshi was a great host, funny and kind. Overall if you want a chill experience, learn surfing, eat some fried chicken and hoard ice cream, this is the place for you.

Aoshima was so fun, toshi is a very kind host and i loved staying at the hostel, all the other volunteers were litballs and great meeting people from places I don't know much about. The work is very reasonable and if you are looking to learn how to surf or just to relax in a small town i highly recommend:))))
