The guest house has amazing hosts, Madoka-san and Takeo-san, was an unforgettable experience! They were incredibly warm, welcoming, and always made me feel at home. Every dinner felt like a family gathering, full of laughter, delicious food, and great conversations. I also had the chance to meet and connect with wonderful volunteers, creating friendships I'll cherish forever. Grateful for the memories and hospitality — truly a heartwarming cultural exchange! And a memory to keep forever <3

Madoka-san and Takeo-san were the best hosts, they made me feel so welcomed and safe during my stay at the guest house, it felt like a big family. The working hours were as established, the accommodation was comfortable, and the other volunteers so nice. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking to spend some time in Osaka in a place that feels like home away from home.

I had a really great time in the guesthouse! There is a really social atmosphere. Madoka san and Takeo san are really nice and they often host dinner parties. The work is 3 hours a day, and fairly easy if you just follow the checklist. Osaka is an amazing city to stay in, I absolutely loved it!

I had a truly wonderful time here! Takeo san and Modoka san were very welcoming and engaged with us whenever possible. We had a barbecue, a Taco night and other activities together. All the other volunteers were also super nice and social and I made some great friends there! Overall, the atmosphere was always friendly and fun and I loved spending my time there!
