Many foreigners lives in major cities and urban areas such as Tokyo and Osaka.

But rural areas,they don’t have much opportunity to meet Japanese friends like urban areas.

Event information such as language learning, sporting events, arts and music, and seminars are provided as needed.

Go to embassy event

If you would like to have international events with gentlemen and ladies in public events.

How about trying an embassy event?

Check out the embassies in Japan which regularly holds events.

If you want to be friends with a country of interest,we can gladly pinpoint an international exchange.

Go to the share space where foreigners gather

If you want to build an international network for your work you can go to the “Share Office” where many foreigners gathers.

Share Office often used by foreigners working in Japan and engineers from IT companies.

Lectures and events are also held regularly which can be a catalyst for business networking.

Work as a Volunteer sightseeing

“If you have a strong hospitality why not join a sightseeing volunteer?

Check out many private companies that are looking for guides for foreign tourists.

Stay at a Guesthouse

Many foreigners who come to Japan and would like to have cheap accommodations are called backpackers.

If you visit a guest house rather than a hotel or inn as a visitor you can meet travelers from all over the world.

You would be able to introduce places and enjoy casual international exchange with them.

Let foreign tourists stay at home

“Airbnb”is a popular service for foreigners searching for accommodation and rents a vacant room in a private house or apartment.

It is ideal for families with children as they can interact with foreigners searching for accommodation as if they were in a homestay.

Messenger





What to watch out for

Let’s look at what to look for when finding foreign friends in Japan.

Too much demanding

Making foreign friends to talk in order to to just improve your English can be rude to others.

Asking questions like “Teach me English” would make the other person feel uncomfortable and think that they are being used just for that purpose.

International exchange can not be used as a free language learning tool.

Insufficient communication

Language communication is to enjoy the conversation in any language.

A person who talks like a salesman would not be considered as an international exchange.

It is good manners to learn a certain amount of language so that you can communicate simple but properly.

Annoying behavior and rudeness

International exchange involves talking with many nationalities.

So you must be beware of annoying or rude attitudes as a person.

Often asking to foreigners their age or try to ask questions about their race ,ethnic background or family can be rude and not acceptable.

So please be aware that asking such private questions can be rude.

Summary

There aren’t many opportunities to meet foreigners while living in Japan.

But if you act positive and in good manners its is possible to meet others.

Even if you don’t go to study abroad there are still many opportunities to meet and make international friends.

So let’s expand and meet new friends.
