### ✨ What’s This Trip About?

This is not your typical Kamakura sightseeing tour.
Local leaders ("Program Owners") will guide you through unique experiences that connect you with Kamakura’s **culture, community, and circular living**.
You’ll meet people making real change in Kamakura — social entrepreneurs, festival organizers, and craftspeople. After the trip, you’ll also be invited to join an online community to stay connected.
