I spent a wonderful month in the home! I made many friends and visited a lot of places! The landscape is beautiful, the food is excellent and the people are friendly! The work was fair and even pretty fun at times! I was able to visit parts of Hokkaido, hike around and go to some festivals! My only wish is to be able to come back, this time in winter !

My working experience at the home was my first in a foreign country and I would do it anytime again! I really liked the rural character of the home and I also enjoyed meeting the most friendly local people and getting in touch with international travellers. Also Dan is a very nice guy and managed our working times fairly! For those who want to experience the true japanese experience, you should go here. Coming back one day!

I had a really fun experience at the home ski resort, I voulonteer during spring, the home is a really cute village, the mountains are wonderful, the same for the coast (I even had the chance to arrive for the Hanami period). Dan and John (the responsibles) are great persons, really helpfull to acclimate you.

I've spent the most amazing winter season I could have ever dreamed of in the home! The working hours were respected, there were always people ready to help if needed, the living conditions were great, and so were the people. I'll come back!

I spent 2 months in the home for the winter season and loved it! I met so many incredible people, everyone was super friendly and the work was fun. Work is 5 days a week, 5 hours + 30 min lunch and 2 days off. Working in the kitchen was a little busy sometimes but overall easy. They have a separate house for the volunteers, we did our own groceries and put it on a tab at the supermarket which was super convenient. They have ski gear available (depends on your size) and the lift is free! The only downsides were the lack of central heating and bugs. Thanks everyone at the home Resort. <3
