The Experience

Hi there! We’re a small, newly opened guesthouse on Tsushima Island, Japan — a peaceful, nature-filled island between Korea and Japan. We run a cozy guesthouse with a small café & bar, and we’re looking for friendly volunteers who can help with light housekeeping (like making beds and cleaning) and just chatting with guests. That’s it! The guesthouse opened this January, so we’re still small — not too many guests yet —

If your are looking for a time out from many people and the stress of busy citys then the guest house Tsushima is the perfect choice. U get a beautiful guesthouse, incredible nature, kind guests and the best host u can ever wish for over all you get the best time of your life. Yama und Yuka are the most kind, friendly and funny people, they help u with whatever u need so you will feel like a part of the family from the start on. If there is one bad thing i would need to say then it's definitely that u can't stay there forever and the good bye will be heartbreaking.

Come here! Tsushima and the guest house are wonderful! I met so many wonderful locals that I am happy to now call my friends! It was truly a cultural immersion. The guesthouse and the guest house are absolutely beautiful. Cleaning was as described and took 1-2hours a day depending on how many guests were checking out. I got to work in the guest house; working on my latte art, as well as chat with many of the guest house guests. Yama and Yuka are so lovely! They are amazing people! They toured me around the island, lended me a bike, hosted barbecue and takoyaki parties so that I could experience it all “Japanese style”
