Ohmachi Junxion
One of ancient capital of Japan, a famous historic city named Kamakura is surrounded by full of nature, like beaches, hills, trails, old temples in the forest, various kind of birds, and so on.
Time flow slowly, people are basically down-to-earth and easy-going, foods are nice, there are so many small & cozy cafes and restaurants in town.
So you can stay here in peace, and all the atmosphere will relax you.
I'm so easy host, and all our staff members are very independent. So no one will take you care too much, but we always care about you. We want you to be yourself, you don't need to adjust to Japanese way.

Kuni is absolutely an amazing human being! Truly looks after his volunteers as if they are his own children! There are 4 different hostels you could work at, all similar work. You live in a guest house with a beautiful view up a CRAZY hill but it’s the right of passage walking up that hill hahaha! Also you’re about an hour from the heart of Tokyo! Definitely HIGHLY recommend!

My time in Kamakura was great. It was my first volunteer experience and Kuni was such a welcoming host and all of the staff members were so kind too. The food they provided on working day, was amazing. Also, the work was super easy and I had plenty of free time to explore Kamakura and it’s surroundings. It was a great experience and I would recommend it to everyone :)

I had a great time in Kamakura! Everyone was very kind, and there is always a good amount of other volunteers to meet. Meals provided were also amazing. I will say the description for this experience is a little off, as there may be morning shift (which lines up with breakfast, so timing is not bad) that you may also have to work, depending on the hostel your shift is at. You also stay at a volunteer house, and only at the hostel on your shifts. Overall, I’d say that this was a great first Worldpackers experience and I would love to come back in the future!
