Hello! My name is Takanori Sugita, a 29-year-old male currently living in Tokyo, Japan. I am excited about the opportunity to participate in a farm stay, as I am passionate about learning and contributing to sustainable living and agriculture.

My Skills:

- Drawing: I also have a passion for art and love to draw in my free time especially Japanese manga style art (see https://x.com/hitsujiniku_12)
- Web Programming: I have experience creating and managing websites, including coding and maintaining online platforms like WordPress, TypeScript
- Web Design: I can use Figma, Sketch and so on.
- Digital Marketing: I have worked on strategies to promote businesses and projects online, focusing on audience engagement and outreach.
- Agriculture: I have hands-on experience with home gardening, where I grew my own vegetables for one year.
- Pet Care: I grew up with a dog at my parents' home, and now I live with my wife and our cat. I enjoy spending time with animals and understand their needs.
- Japanese Cooking: I love making traditional Japanese dishes and would be happy to share these with others during my stay.

What I Want to Learn:
- Organic Farming & Permaculture: I am eager to deepen my understanding of organic farming techniques and permaculture principles.
- Traditional Lifestyles: I am interested in learning about the traditional ways of living in different countries, including how people sustainably live in harmony with nature.
