Talking about weekend, one week ago I kinda busy to travel to Azusha Bashi but was not for holiday. I went to Azusha Bashi for a job as a farmer. Yup, I am a freelancer farmer in Japan now.
On this summer, except my main job as a technician, there is a job offered to me. My friend (fellow Indonesian) invited me to do this job that for sure I accepted. Instead do nothing on the weekend, or spending money to visiting a place, I prefer doing part-time farmer with my friends.
So, here I am a tomatoes harvester. Yup, my freelance job on the weekend is a harvesting Tomatoes in Azusha Bashi, it's about 2 hours journey by car from my Flat in INA. This is a long Tomatoes field, what we gonna do is harvesting all Tomatoes ready to be harvested.
As far as the eye can see, this Tomatoes field had nice and refreshful view because located around the mountain. Even though weather is nice to see, but if you been there, it was totally hot because summer in Japan is different from my country.
This tomatoes fields need ten harvester to reach the target. We given 3 days to accomplished and wrapped the tomatoes, but because we were done great team work, we accomplished this fields in 1 day. I have never be a harvester before so this job is challenging for me.
I guess you will be asked, where are the tomatoes because you can not see them on the previous pictures. Here I show you the tomatoes which ready to be harvest. Because I taken previous pictures after harvesting so you can not see the red tomatoes. Here we go...
The tomatoes growing big and red. For harvest that we have to know which tomatoes had the fir ripe level so we can't harvest the wrong tomatoes. The orange tomatoes had a little bit time to harvesting. The little tomatoes are still grow so don't harvest that hahaha
Azusha Bashi is one of the perfect places that I ever visited in Nagano District. This district is still had field which is a the main source of livelihood for the surrounding community. As you know that Japan is silence, Azusha Bashi is more silencer because peoples focus on their work than doing something useless. The main factor why I love live in Japan. The lack is about we can express our emotion lots loud because it will be distrubbing others. However, each country had their regulations and I as immigrant worker have to respect it!
