I'm a 19-year-old, Project Trust volunteer from the majestic concrete city of Birmingham, West Midlands. Besides from being a volunteer teacher in Japan. I'm an avid writer, maniacal perfectionist, half decent web designer and a politics fanatic. With a side of being a melancholic music listener.
I'll be taking on a Politics and English Language degree at Aston University after my year in Japan.

I'm 18 and definitely not a cactus.
I'm from Hexham, Newcastle and I fill my days with photography and pot noodles.
After my year in Japan, I'll be pursuing my passion in Maths as I take on a Masters in Maths degree at Loughborough University.
About
A village located in the Hokkaido region of Japan.
A truly northern Japanese gem that holds a massive dormant caldera which over years, has been filled with a magnificent crystal clear body of water.
In addition to the lake itself, the Toyako region features the renowned hot springs spas and picturesque scenery and an active volcano, Mount Usu.
Toya
Home to around 2000 people, the residents of Toya are proud and joyous.
Their compassion and love not only to us but as a community hold high as a defining trait of the village.
Although it lacks the typical skyscraping lights, whizzing bullet trains or technological contraptions that our conceptions of Tokyo are like. But the wonders of Toya are simply the natural breathtaking landscape and its adoring people.
