I appreciate Kuni-san so much for allowing me on the team! I had an incredible time exploring the country. Kuni-san and his wife was the most sweetest and caring host. They made amazing food for each shift which I will miss even though I did not show up for dinner often (was out exploring). Future travelers, don't even hesitate on applying because this was a great location away from the city but also close enough to tokyo or any other city. The schedule is flexible enough to have day trips in other areas of japan. Thank you so much!

Great experience if you're a chill person, Kamakura is a peaceful and beautiful place and Kuni is very kind. You get delicious meals on the days you work. The volunteers house is great but always full with all kinds of people… Kuni also gives money to do groceries for the house and the work is pretty easy.

This was my first worldpackers experience and it was amazing. Kuni was super welcoming and helpful from the beginning and even let me stay for longer as I had problems with my next volunteering and couldn't go. And the food they make was delicious always ! the work it's pretty easy and chill and I got to meet many great people and talk and learn about their countries etc. Kamakura it's also such a pretty place, near tokyo, next to the beach and in general pretty calm and full of nature and shrines ! I would love to come back again. Thank you Kuni :)

It was a really great first experience with worldpackers!! I would definitely recommend this place if you're searching for a quieter place to stay. Kamakura has my heart. Moreover, Kuni was really patient and nice and i really appreciate his way of communicating. The work was easy, the part/full time staff member explain it really good to you. It was more free time than work because we were so many volunteers, which made the experience really interesting and partly challenging, living with so many people. Thank you for hosting me <3

This was my first time using Worldpackers and I could ask for a better way to start :) Kuni and everyone at wanderkitchen and the hostels are very nice and welcoming. I got the chance to explore kamakura and the surroundings as well as Tokyo. I met a lot of unforgettable people and made the experience even better! Initially booked 2 weeks but ended up staying 2 more :) definitely recommend it

Although you only get the delicious meals from Kuni San and Ai San when you work, I enjoyed my time there. I met many lovely volunteers at the Gokurakuji House (40 min walk to Kamakura Station), staff from WanderKitchen and Bench and with a lot of freetime you can really get to know Kamakura, explore all the temples and nearby cities. The sunsets at the beach with Mount Fuji are amazing as well. I wouldn't recommend this experience to travelers who are working remotely. At the hostels there is good WiFi, but not at the Gokurakuji House.

This was my first Worldpackers experience and I'm so glad it was: Kuni and the staff were very welcoming and kind, leaving was sad. The work is easy to learn, you can meet the local staff as well as many international volunteers and travellers. On top of that they provide food and on some days delicious meals. Kamakura is a small quiet city but there's so much to see, it's perfect for nature lovers but really close to big cities as well !

The job at the hostals is really easy, and allows you to meet fellow travelers and to have more than enough time to tour around Kamakura and other cities. The frequency of shifts in a week differs according to the number of volunteers at that moment. Kuni and Ai San prepare delicious meals (dinner and breakfast) for you everytime you have a shift, adapting them to your allergies or dietary restrictions. The volunteer's dorm was a house that's around 35 minutes on foot from WanderKitchen, on a hill, and it worked okay when the number of volunteers was around 8.

My experience in Kamakura was very nice, the place is beautiful and offers a lot of things to see and explore especially for those who love the sea and want to experience the vibe of a seaside town not too chaotic. Although the house is a bit far from workplaces and the city centre, these can easily be reached by tram or a pleasant walk, I highly recommend an experience here!!!
