Trip to Japan - for free? ^^
« on: December 23, 2011, 12:34:36 AM »
Hello! As my post got burried somewhere in the chit-chat and no1 can see it I decided to start a new thread. Don't worry, I won't bump it or create any new threads: P

As most of the anime and manga fans, my dream is to travel to Japan.
Several months ago I've found out about WWOOF - opportunity to travel to foreign countries (Japan also! ) to work on the ecological farms, for which you get free accommodation and food
As a normal polish student I can't afford the trip to Japan (both ways flight = $1200), even If there are no costs of living in there.

But... there's a contest in which I can win the scholarship for paying the flight expenses. To win, I need to get as many votes as possible - it's an open Internet voting contest, so everyone has the same chance of winning. One polish newspaper already wrote about me online, but It still isn't enough =/ If any of you, m&a fans, is willing to help me - I'd be grateful.

I've made the presentation for contest (english version specially for u ^^), so If u want to get to know me better (pics included 0.0) simply visit:

To simply vote for me:

(u have to scroll down, log-in via facebook and select star amount - best would be 5/5 )

I know that nobody likes this kinds of requests, but It's the only way for me to visit Japan. I've even found a nice place to stay in Sasayama - nice little village surrounded by mountains ^^
Once again - thanks for reading and have a good day. If you have any questions or requests, feel free to ask.

Some pics from Sasayama (between Kyoto and Osaka), where I'm planning to stay:
