It has been one of the most wonderful experiences in my life. It was my first trip to Japan, the Shibata family welcomed me and taught me about their culture in the most kind and friendly way possible. Michiyo San is a warm and kind person who showed me how beautiful his town and his family are. They are incredible artists with a lot of talent and it has been wonderful to learn and live with them. About the tasks, they are easy and quick to do, if you get confused you don't have to worry, they will guide you to the end, there is a lot of free time to get to know the town and enjoy.

Staying at Nodokeya guest house was a really good experience! Michiyo-san and Yoshiho-san received me very well, and also their 3 cute children! I had the opportunity to attend various events with local people, practice my the guest house make friends. Everyone was so nice to me! :) The work was easy and less hours than expected (September is not a very busy season), I had a lot of free time. The surroundings were very beautiful and calm, during the week there isn't a lot going on, it's peaceful. It was sad to go, I definitely had a good time and plenty of fun ☺️ Hope to meet again!

Michiyo and Shibata were great hosts. They're very nice, welcoming, and accommodating. Michiyo took note of my favorite things and made sure to serve them for meals or took me to places to experience them. They fed me really well :) and took me to some interesting places around the area. The work varies from day to day. Some days were quite hard, but other days were very easy. It also depends if there were a lot of customers or not. I also got a lot of time off so I was able to explore the area and relax. If you love nature and countryside the guest house, then you will love this place.

My month at Nodokeya Guesthouse was unforgettable! The work is very manageable (closer to 20 hrs/week), and the owners go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and well fed. From playing video games (switch) with the kids, to seeing the owner's band perform, to having a takoyaki party with the family and guests; I always felt included. This place is especially good for people with some the guest house language skills, as it is very immersed in local culture and there aren't as many English speakers. Thank you again, Michiyo-san and Yoshiho-san! ζœ¬ε½“γ«γŠδΈ–θ©±γ«γͺγ‚ŠγΎγ—γŸγ€‚γ‚γ‚ŠγŒγ¨γ†γ”γ–γ„γΎγ—γŸοΌ
