Emiko is the kindest person I've ever met! The whole family is hilarious, smart and sensitive. I would not have left if I didn't have to go home.

I would recommend the farm every single day of my life. The warmth and friendliness of the family is something I am truly grateful for. From the very first day, I felt comfortable and welcomed. The work is perfectly fine, though the weather can be the toughest part (I stayed there during the first few weeks of September, so it was hot). Yamanashi is a wonderful prefecture, perfect for experiencing the rural heart of Japan. I left the farm feeling sad that it was over, but happy for the relationships I made. Emiko-san, Marina-san, Rosa-san and Shigeru-san, I will miss you so much!

Quedarme en la granja fue una de las experiencias más bonitas y enriquecedoras que he vivido en mis voluntariados. Emiko-san es una anfitriona increíble, siempre atenta y generosa. Disfruté profundamente cada día del mes que pasé allí; sin duda me habría quedado más tiempo y sé que volveré. Una experiencia que guardaré con mucho cariño. ¡10 estrellas! ⭐✨

Minha estadia de 12 dias como voluntária no sítio foi simplesmente maravilhosa! Desde o primeiro dia, me senti super bem-vinda por todos. Agradeço muito a Emiko, que fala um português muito bom, por tudo, acabamos nos comunicando perfeitamente no meu idioma, o que tornou tudo mais acolhedor. O trabalho era justo e muito gratificante; aprendi bastante enquanto ajudava nas tarefas. Essa vivência me deu um gostinho real da cultura local e da rotina no campo. Foi uma oportunidade autêntica. Muito obrigada por tudo! Levo comigo memórias incríveis. ('｡• ᵕ •｡`) ♡
