I had a very fun and relaxing stay with Fuga at Kuromame Ann! Tamba, where Kuromame Ann is located, is surrounded by picturesque mountains and rice paddies. Although the area is a bit secluded from civilization, its a great place to unwind and spend time reflecting or working on personal projects. Fuga will take you on day trips to local shrines, museums, and kayaking! He is accommodating of any needs volunteers might have. He also finds work that is suitable for each volunteer's skill set, which makes volunteering much more engaging and personalized. Thank you so much for this experience!

My stay in Tamba was beyond my expectations, Fuga always tried the best he could to share this amazing place with us by showing us cool temples, bridge and more. After a long trip I find this place like another home for me, developing a friendship with the owner as well as the volunteers there. The free days we have can allow us to visit other places like funaya and many more. I was really happy to start and finish an art project and have the input of everyone. Overall I absolutely loved my volunteering and would recommend if you want to discover the country side of Japan. Thank you 🌞

Tamba is very quiet and surrounded by nature, would recommend it to anyone who wants to disconnect and relax. The town is well located for day trips and offers a genuine experience of Japan without the big crowd of tourists. Work here doesn't take too long and it feels like taking care of your own house. Fuga himself is super generous and will make sure you're having a great time, he drove me for trips around and recommended many things to do, plus he's a great cook and there's an indoor grill which is super cool. There are sakura trees right next to the river you might get to see bloom!

Great place for people who want to experience the countryside during their volunteer experience, and you have plenty of opportunities to explore the greater Kansai area as well. The work is usually finished within the 5 hours daily even on busy days, so you have time for yourself as well. We had fun making BBQ's and going on trips in the local area as well!

The guesthouse is a big traditional house in the countryside right next to a really nice river Work was fairly simple so you can explore the area either in the morning or afternoon depending on when work needs to be done Location is abit far out so i ended up cycling everywhere, which was fun Fuga-san himself is a really chill dude and will try to offer tours around the area for volunteers' sake. He is fairly new to the business, having been handed down late last year so he's still figuring things out. However with what he does know he will delegate work fairly depending on what is required

I really liked my stay at the guest house in Tamba:) You will get your own room and have plenty of time to chill and get outside. You also have your own kitchen so you will not be in contact with guests! If your spontaneous and not a big planner it's the perfect destination for you also if you wanna calm down and see the country side of Japan it's great for that !
