Toshi is just dope Af! His guesthouse and other properties are beautiful, clean, and so cultured. I love my time there! Work doesn't take away from the experience and a pleasure to complete. He picks the best roomies. Guest are so nice and from everywhere around the world! If you love to surf and beach life this is the world packer for you

This was my first WorldPackers experience and it was overall pretty nice. I would highly recommend visiting during warmer temperatures to really enjoy the beach. Toshi was very welcoming and work was fairly easy giving us enough time to explore afterwards.

I had so much fun and met so many amazing people! The work is easy and goes by quickly, there are several properties but most of them are walking distance apart and Toshi will drive you to the further ones. The location is fantastic and the beach is only 2 minutes away so you can surf to your hearts content. I'll never forget my time in the saloon with my fellow sheriffs, it has been a pleasure 🫡

A really nice experience ! Toshi and Daisuke are really chill and the job is fair. You'll have time to discover the region and enjoy Aoshima for a slower life :)

The guest house is a paradise, thats the only way i can describe it! Toshi the host is super chill en nice, he's funny and he's a DJ so cant go wrong with that. The work itself is very chill and actually fun and relaxing sometimes, it was a nice start to the day and not long at all. The surf is absolutely perfect for all levels. The town itself is beautifull and offers some nice quiet and chill vibes. I would also recommend Hitchhicking on the island of KYU SHU, its a great way to meet local people! Toshi and Japan, THANK YOU! PS. If you see Ms. Kohana in the saloon, say hey for me!

I had a great time at the guest house! The work was very simple and there were plenty of opportunities to surf. Toshi and Foo are really lovely people and the other volunteers at the guesthouse, even more so :) The town has a very chill vibe and is the perfect place to rest and relax. Will definitely be back!

Toshi created an unique paradise for whoever want to experience a different way of living Japan culture. The place to stay is great, he is always available for any needs, passionate in talking with you if needed and very clear on how the work is supposed to be done. Surfboard will be there, wesuits as well, you only need to get to be there to live an amazing experience and to have fun with others volunteering. Great time. Thank you Toshi, as i said when i left you really create a perfect place for traveling dreamers as i am.

I enjoyed staying at this place because it offers a lot of freetime and the chances of meeting new people can be good. I did not like that the volunteers didn't really explained me how to do the cleaning and when I did something wrong everyone was mad? And when I asked what to do everyone seemed so annoyed. But that really depends on the other volunteers that are staying there. The host was really welcoming but sometimes not easy to reach because he's not always there. Aoshima is very quiet and apart from surfing there's not really a lot to do. Also free surf lessons were not available !!
