the World Agricultural Heritage sites.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe best way to discover\u00a0the rural life<\/strong> of the Kunisaki peninsula is to spend the night at a n\u00f4ka minshuku <\/em>(\u8fb2\u5bb6\u6c11\u5bbf)<\/strong>, which is the Japanese version of a far<\/b><\/span>m stay<\/strong>. I was blessed to stay at the Maruka<\/strong> farm guesthouse, which is run by the Kamihira family.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHost family: The Kamihira’s<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Kamihira are not your ordinary farmers. Tired of their city life, Fusako and Masayoshi decided to leave\u00a0Tokyo five years ago.\u00a0 They wanted a better life for their kids, far away from the extra-consumerism of the city, and to live in a more human and harmonious way closer to nature.\u00a0<\/strong>Now by opening a farm-stay, they wish to give you a taste of this life too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
