Hi, my name is Toru. I am one of the earliest airbnb user in Japan and I have hosted hundreds of happy guests who visited Japan. I am opening up a new listing in one of the hippest neighborhood in Tokyo and looking for supporters to make it happen.
Shimokitazawa is close to both Shibuya and Shinjuku, just one or two stops away on a train. It has a lot of small shops for vintage clothing / vinyl records / books, cafes and live music bars. Some people call Shimokitazawa mecca of counter-culture in Japan. New York Times once said "Shimokitazawa is Tokyo’s answer to Greenwich Village, an epicenter of youth culture in one of Asia’s trendiest metropolises."
As rewards for the backers, I have prepared some discount tickets for the stay at my existing airbnb listing in the best block in Shimokitazawa.

It’s all in Japanese but it works pretty much like other crowdfunding websites or e-commerce site. Please feel free to ask for assistance when you’re not sure.
