My goal for our volunteers is that they can immerse themselves in local Japanese culture, build lasting relationships, and grow their skills. I want to build a bridge between travelers and the local community by running conversational English classes and getting our guests involved in local events. Alongside teaching English, the work will include hostel upkeep - housekeeping, cleaning, and renovating. I look forward to meeting you :)

Volunteering at the hostel was an amazing experience. Kai is an equally amazing host, and I'm so glad I got to volunteer in Sagamiko JP. I felt involved with the local community and got to see many places like the onsen in Mori Mori or shrines nearby Mt Takao. The work itself was well structured and gave me enough time to relax in between and prepare for other things like grocery shopping. The accommodation is very comfortable, being surrounded by nature and hearing the river was music to my ears, on top of the consistent rain that never hindered work. All in all, a great experience.

Working with kai was my first volunteering experience in worldpackers and I learned a lot and had so much fun. He is a really nice, understanding and a respectful person as long as you keep your promise and stay on the schedule!

Wonderful place to experience Japan outside the big cities and still meet people, both locals and travelers! Kai was a very considerate host and it was fun meeting & speaking with the English students. Work is part renovation of the new place (say hi to the cat!) and part teaching English & hours are respected.

I had an amazing time with Kai! He was a very kind and thoughtful host - I had lots of good conversations with him and the other volunteers while eating at the table. I truly hope that our paths meet again in the future. The whole experience was great, I will say that the work at the new house was tougher then I expected! Teaching the english students was so fun and I made friends with them. Make sure to check your dates for when you want to go explore areas near Tokyo, as it is far without car. I would suggest staying the night in Tokyo and coming back the next morning to be able to enjoy!

Staying with Kai-san was an absolute treat-- He's super kind and eager to hear new suggestions. My time with him and the other volunteer gave me a whole bunch of new insights into caring for Japanese homes and how English is taught in Japan. :) The outdoor gym was an added bonus!
