This paper deals with the relationship between tourism and representation of nature by case studies of migrants to Minami-Izu. In Anthropology of Tourism or Sociology of Tourism, the space of tourism has been seen as the field of political negotiation between 'host and guest'. Meanwhile as it has been argued that anyone moves anytime in these days, the dualism of 'host and guest' should be questioned. Minami-Izu, Shizuoka prefecture have been represented as warm and rich natural environment by writers from Meiji period, and that the novel "Izu-no-Odoriko" made the region as image of catharsis. The opening of railway to Minami-Izu in 1961 made the region as the destination of mass tourism that much depended on the image of these writings. On the other hand, from the beginning of mass tourism there were people diverging to migrate to Minami-Izu as life space. An old man of the region made many cottages by scrap wood by his hands and rented to migrants. The "village" doesn't survive anymore but the spirit of bricolage of the old man survive. There are increasing number of migrants to Minami-Izu some of who built cottages by themselves and further they began to paint pictures. There are another type of migrants who brought new age or spirituality thought to practice. They had relatively clear vision of building space of gathering or healing space. In these space events take place with many migrant's assist. With these case of migrant to Minami-Izu, I argue thatthe dualism of host and guest should be treated as to be fluid and nested each other.
