What better way to celebrate summer than with great food, new friends, and unforgettable memories?
That’s exactly what happened at our 2025 Summer BBQ Party — where 72 Borderless House residents from all over Tokyo came together for one big international hangout.
It was a beautiful mix of familiar faces and fresh energy — from longtime housemates reconnecting, to newcomers who had just moved in three days ago, and even solo residents who showed up just hoping to meet someone new from another house.
The result? A sunny, laughter-filled day where people from around the world bonded over grilled food and shared stories that crossed cultures and languages.
One Thing in Common: BORDERLESS HOUSE
Breaking Down House Walls, Building Global Friendships 🌍
As soon as guests checked in, grabbed a drink, and stuck on their name tag, conversations started bubbling up all over the venue.
“Which Borderless House are you from?”
“What are you doing in Japan right now?”
Just like that, Tokyo turned into a hub of multicultural connection.
↑Among the crowd, we spotted a group from our brand-new Honkomagome 2 House, which just opened in 2025!
Building Summer Memories, Together
One of the things that makes Borderless House events special is that they’re created with our residents, not just for them.
This BBQ was no different — several housemates volunteered behind the scenes to help prep and grill the skewers. Even in the heat, everyone was smiling and saying the same thing:
“It’s hot… but BBQs are just so much fun!!”
Their help brought a collaborative, all-hands-on-deck vibe to the entire day — and that energy was felt by everyone there.

What We Heard from Residents
Here’s what many residents said after the event:
“I’m so glad I got to meet people from other houses!”
“I made new friends from different countries!”
“It was so hot, but I was having too much fun to care!”
“Can’t wait for the next event!”
People were swapping Instagrams, LINEs, and making promises like:
“I’ll come visit your house next time!”
Even after the event ended, some groups of new friends headed straight to a nearby beach together — the fun didn’t stop!
When Food, Laughter & Curiosity Bring People Together
This BBQ party brought the kind of energy that melts away cultural barriers — all thanks to the openness that comes from a big community gathering like this one.
You could really feel it:
Laughter, food, and conversation led to natural, real connections.
And that’s the magic of Borderless House — an international share house where friendships grow not through grand gestures, but through everyday moments.
You don’t have to travel the world to meet people from around it.
Sometimes, all it takes is sharing a meal on a sunny afternoon.
