EDIT: We got a lot of replies from people, thanks for your interest! Hopefully we come back in the future for more product develop and I'll be able to reach out to more people then!
Sorry if this isn't allowed – the company I work for is developing cultural experience products in Okinawa and will have a product shoot on Oct 27-30, where we visit the workshops of traditional artisans, the kitchens of professional chefs, and occasionally complete nature activities if they have a deep connection to the region.
Since we don't have many contacts in the area (normally, we ask the guides who work with us to participate so they can get paid to learn about the new products), I'm hoping to find some people who would be interested in experiencing this!
There's (nominal) pay, transportation/food covered, and the chance to explore Okinawa and interact with some professional artisans and culture.
I can share more details in DMs or something, since I'm not sure if this qualifies as spam. Hope to see you in Okinawa soon!
