From Nara, I moved to a depopulated hamlet as a newcomer and live here as a family of four. It's my 15th year since moving. I renovated, by myself, an old farmhouse where no one had lived for over 40 years, and I work on restoring the abandoned, overgrown Ueyama Senmaida rice terraces while growing rice. I started hunting 10 years ago and I'm still a novice hunter. I can share a way of life where we enjoy the deer and other game we catch, along with wild vegetables and our own crops. We prepare seasonal experiences that families can also enjoy at a relaxed pace, and we look forward to welcoming you. For more details, see here: https://kenhoku.jp/turns/vol-36/
