Hi, we’re Sada and Cosi!

We live in Hokkaido, but also love to travel the world together. We did a lot of backpacking throughout our 20&30s in as many countries as possible in Europe and Asia, including India. Our passions are traveling, music, going out, eating great food, and spending time with our daughter.
Many of our travel destinations gave us a home-away-from-home, so we want to show our gratitude for the hospitality we experienced during our stays.
We welcome folks from all walks of life and want you to feel at home in our beloved Sapporo homes and other destinations we are currently creating.

Our goal for listing these new places is to create beautiful memories as close to simplicity as possible that incorporate the ideas we cherish the most:
  • DIY DIY
  • Recycle & Reuse Recycle & Reuse
  • Second Life for Vintage Findings Second Life for Vintage Findings
  • Sharing Economy Sharing Economy
  • Sustainability & Zero Energy Sustainability & Zero Energy
  • Remote Work Remote Work
  • Family Friendly Family Friendly
Today’s world is fast-paced and our values are shifting. Work has become a search for passion, and with the growing flexibility to work remotely, it doesn’t even matter where you are anymore. New technologies and ideas are emerging to tackle mankind’s destruction to the planet.
The only thing that stays constant is time: it passes quickly and never returns.
The only thing that lasts are the memories.

Our mission is to create places where time slows down, leaving you to make those precious moments that last for a lifetime.

Please feel free to contact us 🙂

FRANCE

FRANCE

In the southwest of France, near the Basque Country, lies our beach resort—a quiet spot still new to many from Japan but loved by European families seeking a simple retreat. Its location near Spain means warm weather and the pleasure of local foods like cheese, ham, and wine, all enjoyed without the premium. Summers are lively, yet the rest of the year is a peaceful invitation to the calm of the French countryside. We’re gently shaping a place where guests from Japan and elsewhere can feel at home.

For the latest updates on our project, we invite you to follow our France blog or connect with us on Instagram.
