Working and staying in Aoshima was a great experience! The job is easy and you have a lot of free time. The best part is that you can surf everyday :) They have softboards (long and short) and longboards. In Aoshima there's not a lot of stuff to do, so I would only recommend the place to people who likes nature and surfing. However you can just take the traing and go to Miyazaki if you want to go shopping or party. Also I felt really confortable with all the team!

It was my first volunteering experience trough Worldpackers, so I had no clue what to expect, but I can now say that I'm extremely satisfied with this experience. The working hours are fair, you live in a separate flat with the other volunteers, you get to know many people (both volunteers and guests chilling in the patio), Toshi and Foo are nice. Aoshima is the best place in Japan!! Chill and laid back town with surfing vibes, what can you desire more? I was also lucky enough to meet a marvellous group, so we did many activities together. Definitely recommended! 🏄🏻‍♂️🌞🌈

I'm happy to have had this place in Aoshima as my first worldpackers experience. I made some good friends over there and really enjoyed my time. It's a good spot to learn surfing as well. Work was never too much and is completely fair in exchange for what you get. Greetings to Javi, Sean, Myrte, Simon, Emil, EJ, Anju, Kobe, Daisuke and Toshi 🏄

Aoshima is a nice little town! Fun surfing and good food and chill vibes. Toshi and everyone working here was cool and the working hours are great. The guesthouse is nice and I made lots of friends here. The only thing I would say is that the volunteer living space could be a bit nicer but it wasn't bad. Overall I had a great time here, I really enjoy spending time at the beach and I even extended my stay!

I had an amazing experience from start to finish. Aoshima is beautiful. Toshi and Fuu were both very welcoming and helpful. I had a medical emergency during my stay and Toshi was super helpful offering to bring me to the hospital and help with everything.

Best first worldpackers experience I could have asked for!! I was very nervous going into this being a solo female traveler going on my first international trip through worldpackers, but as soon as I showed up I knew I made the right choice in coming! I felt very welcomed and safe and got exactly what was explained on Toshis host page. The work was very easy and you work with the other volunteers to get everything done! Lots of free time to explore the town, get in touch with nature and visit the shrines in the area. If you are thinking of applying DO IT!!

I loved my time at the guest house! The group of ppl you meet will eventually warm up to each other trust me. I'm going to miss the people I met during my time. Miyazaki was a great place to slow down and relax. Toshi was a good host, though you won't see him much. Accommodations were great!
