We had a fantastic time in Tsuru with Kenta and all of the other worldpackers involved in our time there. Classes were fun, straightforward and what you were expected to do was laid out for you. The hours were very nice to be able to enjoy your day doing things in the area and then come back for the evening classes. Kenya was super helpful in assisting us with transport to our next stay and the facilities provided including heating was great as it was starting to get cold. Very social atmosphere with the other s that were there and even a big thanks to Fumi for helping us on a social night❤

This was an amazing experience! The team was incredibly welcoming and the work was very manageable! The area is gorgeous and there are many things to do around Tsuru and the working hours are flexible enough so you always have time to explore and have fun before having to go to class ! And to be honest it doesn't even feel like work! I enjoyed the classes so much! Hope to be back in the future!!!

One of the best experiences of my life! The host is amazing — he truly immerses you in the culture with tea ceremonies, gives you great advice, and makes you feel so welcomed and cared for. The kids are super polite and absolutely adorable! The location near Mount Fuji is just breathtaking. 100% recommended. Love you all — I already miss you!

My girlfriend and I volunteered at the school for two weeks. It was such a brilliant experience and we were able to meet so many lovely people. A massive thank you to Fumi-san and Kaede for being so welcoming and friendly. The area is stunning and a great base if you love hiking and peace and quiet away from Tokyo. The work was very relaxed and we never worked more than 3 hours a day. There's opportunities to take on more volunteering work with chat spots and in a kindergarten which I'd definitely recommend doing 😊

We spent two weeks in Tsuru volunteering at the school. Tsuru is a small town an hour and a half away from Tokyo and close to mount Fuji, with loads of hikes and natural spaces nearby to visit. The work was easy, fun, laid-back and rewarding. We were always in the class with other volunteers and the focus was on conversation and engaging with the kids. The working hours were always from 4.30 pm with an extra hour or two in the morning if previously agreed. We met amazing people and had lots of fun during our time here. We definitely recommend it. A huge thank you to Fumi-san and Kaede!
