RLC General Chat: Moving to Inaka（田舎）and Finding Akiya（空き家）

This is a general chat where we discuss and share about our experiences moving to rural areas in Japan, and renting an akiya either as your private home or for a private venture.

I will fill you in with some of the experiences I had running "The Other House project" and how I manage to run a multi-faceted accommodation providing authentic rural activities to the guests and participants of the progra. (i.e. anything from cultural exchange to providing focus group activities to local municipal office) .

I will share bit of my experiences and tell you about what possibilities we'll have as well as common mistakes and pitfalls you might come across while doing a similar venture, we'll have time for Q&A as well as general discussions about moving to Inaka and Akiya in general.

• Get an inside look into my story.
• Common "pitfalls", or things to watch out for.
• Network with people of common interest/build a team to go work on an Akiya project.

The meeting will be held online.
