The home (Owner of the café) was very kind and welcoming. She opened her home, where her family also makes you feel included. There are two permanent volunteers who help with everything. The house is beautiful old-style japanese house, with amazing views to Mount Fuji. The rooms don't have any heaters, so it can be cold in winter. Meals are only provided on workdays (one per day), but you can use the kitchen. The café is just starting, a bit unorganized but cozy. Sadly, I had a disagreement with another volunteer, that make me put an end earlier to the volunteer, guess wasn't th right place 4 me

Fue una linda experiencia, te permite conocer la cultura y sentirte en casa, naturalmente aquellos que quieran ir deben tener en cuenta o estar dispuestos a laborar y colaborar en equipo, ya que las labores que se realizan en la cafetería asi lo exige, pero la casa es una persona amable que hace que la estadía sea amena ,este fue mi primer voluntariado,estoy muy contenta y agradecida, son experiencias inolvidables y toda una aventura, estoy segura de que los siguientes voluntarios en la casa se sentira de la misma manera.

La vida de un voluntario es sencilla en muchos aspectos. Arriesgamos poco y tenemos poder sobre aquellos que ofrecen su trabajo. En ocasiones el voluntario se arriesga cada vez que defiende algo nuevo. El mundo suele ser cruel con el nuevo talento. Las nuevas creaciones, lo nuevo, necesita amigos. En el pasado, jamás oculté mi desdén por el famoso lema del Chef Alejandro "Cualquiera puede cocinar", pero al fin me doy cuenta de lo que quiso decir: no cualquiera puede convertirse en un gran artista, pero un gran artista puede provenir de cualquier lado. Pronto volveré a Café la casa, hambriento.

Café la casa es un lugar increíble donde podrás crecer en todos los sentidos. la casa te brinda la oportunidad de que Japón conozca tu nombre, siempre reconociendo tu esfuerzo. Eso sí, no es un lugar para todos: si tienes hambre de superación, de ser mejor y de descubrir una versión de ti que no sabías que existía, este es el lugar indicado. Si solo buscas un sitio para pasar tu estadía en Japón, quizá este no sea el adecuado. Café la casa es una verdadera fábrica de sueños, tanto para la anfitriona como para los voluntarios. Muchas gracias, familia Ito. ¡Los llevo en el corazón! ❤️

Es mi segunda vez como voluntaria con la casa y la experiencia sigue superando mis expectativas. la casa es muy amable, siempre dispuesta a enseñarte y crear un ambiente acogedor. Muchas gracias a la casa y a su familia por recibirme con los brazos abiertos nuevamente. Si están buscando una experiencia fuera de lo común para conocer la vida rural de Japón y personas de todas partes del mundo, este es su lugar! Gracias por todo!
