Wakaura has a very deep history and has long been a popular summer resort and tourist destination. Wakaura offers not only scenery, but also historical sightseeing with its various temples, castles, and gardens. In addition, although it is not well known, Wakayama produces a wide variety of fruits, so that it is called the fruit kingdom, and it is said that all fruits eaten in Japan can be obtained from Wakayama Prefecture.
We moved from Tokyo to an old Japanese-style house in Wakayama with the vision of “a house where people gather”. Coincidentally, this old house, which we will be using for everyone, used to host many lodgers and many different kinds of people about 60 years ago. For meals, we buy fish directly from the fishing port and as much local vegetables as possible from the produce market, and we try to make our meals clean, locally produced and consumed.
My mother and my two children, aged 4 and 2, were in your care for a week. We brought an electric bicycle with us, which proved very handy for short trips to the pool, beach, and local supermarket. The meals were delicious at every sitting, especially the fried shrimp, which my daughters loved and ate whole, shells included. They made friends with the local children and played until they were sweaty every day, morning, noon, and night. They also became friends with the chicks and chickens, and we're very grateful for all the experiences we had. The seaweed we bought as a souvenir has been enjoyed by the whole family a little each day since then. It was truly a week that flew by in the blink of an eye. Thank you!
