From Work life Balance to Work as Life
In spring 2016, we moved to Omishima and started living as teleworkers.
The natural environment, fresh and safe food, and the peaceful people made life here so rich and comfortable that we wanted to put down roots here.
On the other hand, I saw the depopulation of the area and began to worry that there would be no-one left in the village if things continued as they were.
It was at this time that I came across an empty house nearby and while thinking about how to utilise it, I created OMISHIMA SPACE in the hope that it would provide an opportunity for teleworkers to come to the area.
OMISHIMA SPACE is equipped not only as a base for cycling and sightseeing, but also as a development camp, a planning camp and a work location.
And thankfully, many people have come to use it.
When they wake up in the morning, they can think of ideas for their work while walking or fishing, work while listening to the birds, and work on their creativity while having a picnic for lunch.
At night, I relax with a meal of fresh vegetables and fish I caught while listening to the sound of insects.
Some people have expressed a desire to experience life on Omishima more leisurely, which is why OMOYA and KOYA will also open in summer 2021.
We invite you to experience the 'work as life' lifestyle, where work is a part of your life, from a life-work balance that separates work and private life.
