A Night of Connection: BORDERLESS NOMIKAI in Tokyo

One of the most exciting events at BORDERLESS HOUSE Tokyo was the Big Drinking Party, or “Nomikai (飲み会) ,” which brought together over 50 residents from 22 share houses across Tokyo. Participants mingled with drinks in hand, practicing their English and Japanese while enjoying the lively atmosphere. The lively gathering didn’t stop there! Many residents continued the fun with a second round of festivities, creating an energetic and welcoming atmosphere that highlights the spirit of living in share houses in Tokyo.

The concept of a “Nomikai” is deeply ingrained in Japanese culture. It’s a social event where colleagues, friends, or community members gather over drinks, often to build relationships and relax outside of their daily routines. At BORDERLESS HOUSE, events like this allow residents—both locals and foreigners living in Tokyo’s share houses—to experience authentic aspects of Japanese culture while forming meaningful international friendships.

Summer Fireworks Celebration in Kyoto

Japan is famous for its stunning summer fireworks festivals, known as hanabi festivals, which light up the night sky from July to August. Major cities like Tokyo and Osaka host renowned events, such as the Sumidagawa Fireworks Festival in Tokyo and the Yodogawa Fireworks Festival in Osaka, attracting thousands of attendees.

Additionally, there are many smaller festivals in the Kansai region that offer special experiences, complete with food stalls and traditional yukata outfits. These lively celebrations not only highlight Japan’s rich culture but also give people a chance to connect with others and make lasting memories during warm summer nights.

The Kansai Fireworks Event was a standout moment of the summer for residents of BORDERLESS HOUSE. This amazing event brought together people from different share houses in Kyoto, Osaka, and Kobe, creating an unforgettable evening filled with light, color, and community.

Lake Biwa Outing: Bringing Together the Kansai Share House Community

The format of the language exchange is designed to encourage interaction and ease in communication. Conversations are guided by various topics, from daily life and culture to personal interests, ensuring participants can practice both casual and structured communication. 

For participants, the benefits extend beyond just language improvement. Practicing with native speakers enhances listening and speaking skills in a natural, supportive setting, boosting confidence for everyday interactions in Japan. It also helps residents gain insight into cultural nuances and local expressions, enriching their overall experience of living in a Tokyo share house.

Borderless House Event | Explore Taiwan’s Hidden Trails: Sandiaoling Hike

The rich natural environment around Taipei provides a perfect setting for hiking. This time, we chose the Sandiaoling Trail, famed for its spectacular waterfalls.

More than 20 tenants from BORDERLESS HOUSE share houses joined this event, coming together to explore and bond through a shared love for nature. The hike allowed us to not only appreciate Taiwan’s stunning landscapes but also engage in meaningful cultural exchanges, making it a memorable experience for everyone living in a share house community.

Now, let’s begin our journey from Sandiaoling Station, and dive into the beauty of this ancient trail with its magnificent waterfalls and tranquil environment!

The Waterfall Journey: Hegu, Motian, and Pipa Cave Waterfalls

The first stop was Hegu Waterfall, standing 15 meters tall, gracefully flowing through the dense forest. It’s the only waterfall we couldn’t get close to, but an observation deck nearby provided a fantastic view.

Continuing along the trail for another 20 minutes, we arrived at Motian Waterfall. Taller and more dramatic than Hegu, Motian’s powerful stream crashes down like a curtain of silver. The pool and rocks at its base enhance its majestic feel. Some of our share house tenants took a break here, cooling off in the fresh waters, while others enjoyed capturing beautiful photos from the viewpoint.

We then ascended to our final stop, Pipa Cave Waterfall, perched at the highest point of the trail. Water cascades down from a cave in the cliffside, with the sound reverberating through the valley, creating a mystical atmosphere. We stayed for about an hour and a half, enjoying lunch and the tranquility. A group photo sealed the memory of this shared experience.

Let’s top off this unforgettable journey with shaved ice!

To top off the day, we indulged in shaved ice from a local shop near the station. Even though it was a dry season and the waterfalls weren’t at their fullest, the beauty and tranquility of Sandiaoling left us in awe. This hike allowed us to connect more deeply with Taiwan’s nature and brought BORDERLESS HOUSE tenants closer together. We’re already looking forward to the next adventure!

Discover unique cultural experiences and interactions beyond hotel stays through our exclusive “BORDERLESS TRAVEL” program for residents!

Hello everyone! Welcome to Borderless House.

Here at Borderless House, the new friendships and interactions under one roof provide a unique sense of fulfillment that only comes from living it.

Japanese residents might find themselves teaching Japanese to their new international housemates, assisting with various administrative procedures, and adapting to life in Japan. This mutual support mirrors the help we would seek if we were traveling or living abroad ourselves.

Stepping out of the comfort of home takes courage, but a warm community waiting at your destination can make any overseas adventure enjoyable and reassuring.

Today, we’re excited to introduce BORDERLESS TRAVEL, where you can enjoy short stays at Borderless Houses in different countries and meet new housemates across borders.

We’ll share the story of Yuzuki, who ventured from Kyoto’s Nishijin House to spend a week in February 2024 at KORYODAE2 HOUSE in Korea. Yuzuki will tell us about her experiences in Japan, her adventures in Korea, and the allure of BORDERLESS TRAVEL.

We also have comments from Robin, the manager of BORDERLESS KOREA, so stay tuned till the end for more insights!

Click here for more details on BORDERLESS TRAVEL!！

Embracing English: Yuzuki’s Journey at Nishijin House

Yuzuki’s time at Nishijin House brought about a significant shift in her views on English and international interactions. She explained that her decision to move there stemmed from a desire to conquer her fear of English and engage with people from different countries.

Although she initially enjoyed English, the stress of exam preparation diminished her passion, and she struggled to speak fluently. Yuzuki realized the limitations of speaking only Japanese and saw the potential of English to connect her with diverse cultures and ideas.

Driven by the need to immerse herself in an English-speaking environment, Yuzuki chose to live at Borderless House.

───Did you consider any other share houses before choosing Borderless House?

Yuzuki: Actually, I didn’t look anywhere else. I decided to move into Borderless House the same day I visited. The environment offered the perfect mix of English practice and social opportunities, all within my budget. Plus, I was planning to study abroad the next year, so the idea of practicing for that experience while still in Japan seemed perfect to me.

─── Could you tell us about your housemates at Nishijin House?

Yuzuki: On my first day, one of my housemates surprised me by inviting me to a party right away, which was unexpected (laughs)! Initially, I was nervous, but everyone was so welcoming that I quickly warmed up to them.

I formed a close bond with a foreign housemate, and we often went out together. I also shared unique insights with a working professional housemate. Whenever we faced challenges or disagreements in our shared living situation, we were able to discuss and resolve them during our regular house meetings at Nishijin House. It truly was a great community to be a part of.

───Have you noticed any personal growth or changes during your time at Nishijin House?

Yuzuki: Absolutely! Initially, spending time with people from other countries was out of the ordinary for me, and it came with a bit of tension. But after living in Borderless House, I’ve become comfortable engaging freely in conversations without considering race or nationality.

It’s been incredibly enriching to learn from the diverse perspectives and strong convictions of my housemates.

Embarking on My First Solo International Journey with BORDERLESS TRAVEL!

───How did you become interested in BORDERLESS TRAVEL?

Yuzuki: I’ve known about the program since I moved in and always wanted to try it. I felt staying at a Borderless House abroad would be more enriching than solo hotel stays, allowing me to learn the language and engage with locals.

It seemed like a perfect way to prepare for my first solo international trip before studying in Canada this summer.

─── Your first experience living abroad was with BORDERLESS TRAVEL. Did you encounter any challenges during your travel?

Yuzuki: It was quite nerve-wracking, especially going through immigration for the first time and figuring out train transfers on my own. But luckily, everything went smoothly without any major problems!

Yuzuki: When I got to Koryodaes House, I was greeted by Robin, the staff member I had been communicating with by email. Meeting him in person really helped me settle in. He showed me around and shared some local tips and places to visit.

───Traveling abroad for the first time can be quite daunting. Did you notice any notable differences during your stay in the Borderless House in Korea compared to Japan?

Yuzuki: Definitely. For example, I had to separate organic waste from burnable trash, and in public restrooms, I couldn’t flush toilet paper but had to discard it in a bin.

Living in an environment close to the local lifestyle, unlike a hotel stay, made me more aware of these cultural differences. This is one of the unique advantages of BORDERLESS TRAVEL.

Language Learning, Cultural Exploration, and International Connections: Maximize the Benefits of Short-Term Stays!

───During your seven-day stay, did you make any specific efforts?

Yuzuki: I focused on being proactive in starting conversations with my housemates. It was my first time in a shared room overseas, and I quickly hit it off with my Italian roommate on the first day. She left for Tokyo the next day, so we couldn’t meet again, but we kept in touch through Instagram, sharing messages and updates about her trip.

Many of my housemates were interested in Japan, so we enjoyed mingling and conversing in Japanese, English, and Korean.

───Did you also converse in Korean during your stay?

Yuzuki: Yes, I’ve been a fan of Korean dramas, which helped me learn the language pretty naturally. I actually speak Korean better than English! While there, Robin invited me to a Language Exchange event, where I got to meet and chat with people outside the house, making my stay even more enjoyable.

───It sounds like you made the most of your 7-day stay! What other activities did you do?

Yuzuki: I visited historic sites and museums that caught my interest. I dressed in traditional Korean clothes and explored Gyeongbokgung Palace, and I also went to the DMZ near the North Korean border.

I participated in a tour aimed at Japanese visitors and connected well with other participants. We discussed how the conflict known in Japan as the “Korean War” is referred to in Korea. Learning about Korean perspectives on their history was incredibly insightful.

─── Reflecting on your 7-day stay, could you highlight what makes BORDERLESS TRAVEL so special?

Yuzuki: Definitely! The program offers deep cultural experiences and meaningful interactions with local housemates that you just can’t get from staying in a hotel. It allows you to live much closer to how the locals do, which is unique to BORDERLESS TRAVEL.

I think even short stays can provide significant learning and insights. I recommend starting with a stay in a domestic Borderless House to get a feel for international exchange before trying out the program.

A Message from Robin, Korean Operations Staff

BORDERLESS TRAVEL, with its strong emphasis on tourism and travel aspects, offers an exciting experience that’s a bit different from our usual resident support. It was Yuzuki’s first solo international trip, so we actively shared information about tourist spots and recommended gourmet spots to ensure she could fully enjoy her time in Korea.

With a recent expansion in our staff at Borderless House Korea, we’re now even better equipped to support our guests in a variety of ways.

I enjoy keeping up with the latest trends and sharing new information, so I encourage you to take advantage of BORDERLESS TRAVEL and come visit us in Korea.

I’m looking forward to meeting you!

Discover the vibrant heart of international living at Ikebukuro Oyama House!

Hello, everyone!

Borderless House operates 78 share houses across Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. In these houses, individuals from various countries, cultures, and values come together to share their lives.

What sets our share houses apart is the unparalleled opportunity to enjoy international exchange simply by living your daily life. This time, we’re introducing Ikebukuro Oyama House, a model example of the vibrant interaction among residents that Borderless House is known for!

We’ve had the pleasure of hearing from two current residents about the allure of living in Ikebukuro Oyama House and their experiences with Borderless House.

If you’re curious, please inquire via the Ikebukuro-Oyama House page.

The perfect balance of convenience and a peaceful living environment.

Ikebukuro Oyama House boasts an ideal location, just a one-minute walk from Oyama Station on the Tobu Tojo Line.

The entrance to the house is on the second floor.

On the day of the visit, the weather was beautiful, and sunlight filled the space, making it shine brilliantly!

▲The photo was taken on a different day.

Near Oyama Station, there’s the Happy Road shopping district that stretches north to south, lined with numerous eateries and stores for daily necessities.

The area around the house serves as a tranquil base for living, yet it buzzes with energy and is filled with people once you step into the shopping district.

Moreover, with Ikebukuro, a new urban center brimming with various trends, just a 5-minute train ride away, the location can truly be described as ideal.

Everyone is incredibly friendly! Enjoying the fun house life at Ikebukuro Oyama House

▲The communal living space, where residents gather to enjoy lively conversations, is a central feature of the shared area.

On the day of our visit, we had the pleasure of meeting two current residents. Despite the sudden visit, we were warmly greeted with smiles by Denise from Germany and Marcelo from Brazil.

▲In the photo, Denise is on the left, and Marcelo is on the right

We visited with Juri, a staff member of the house, and immediately started catching up with each other in English.

The defining feature of Ikebukuro Oyama House, according to both of them, is the vibrant interaction among the residents.

Denise, who moved in last October and is now in her fourth month at the house, particularly remembers the time spent during the Christmas party.

Amidst the nervousness of just having moved in, sharing a feast with other housemates, setting a budget for a gift exchange, and bursting into laughter while watching housemates dance around the Christmas tree…

She shared that the Christmas party served as a catalyst for getting closer to her housemates.

▲The Christmas tree from that time is still displayed in the hallway on the 3rd floor of the house.

Marcelo, who is in his seventh month of residency, recently went on a trip to Atami with his housemates.

They enjoyed the beauty of the “Atami cherry blossoms,” which can only be seen in the winter, and relaxed in a foot bath they stumbled upon along the way, fully embracing the Japanese winter experience.

Even without seasonal events, you can enjoy international exchange in everyday life.

▲In the living room, there are photos of memorable moments taken with friends from Ikebukuro Oyama House.

Ikebukuro Oyama House is unique among Borderless Houses for having all private rooms, allowing residents to enjoy shared living while maintaining their personal space.

However, most residents often spend meal times in the communal living and dining area. It’s commonplace for housemates to offer their food to others who join them at the dining table, saying, “Would you like to try some?” as part of their daily interactions.

Another wonderful aspect of Ikebukuro Oyama House is the tradition of always celebrating each housemate’s birthday!

In February, three residents had birthdays, and the custom is to hold an individual birthday party for each person, rather than combining them into one event.

Not only current residents but also alumni and friends gather for these parties, enjoying fun times together. This tradition fosters a strong sense of community and lasting friendships among those associated with Ikebukuro Oyama House.

Are you ready to join the vibrant community at Ikebukuro Oyama House?

▲Ending with a flash of our best smiles!

For those who can move in by April 15th, we’re currently running a “Spring Early Bird Campaign” that offers a special deal on rooms for a limited time!

【Event Recap】BORDERLESS HOUSE New Year Party 2024 !

Greetings from Borderless House.

Can you believe it’s already been a month since 2024 began? Time sure flies! We’ve settled back into our daily routines after the holiday season, but today, I’d like to take you back to the New Year’s festivities for a moment!

In this blog post, we’ll be sharing a recap of our joint New Year’s party held on January 27th. It was an eventful day filled with laughter, bonding, and cultural exchange, and we’re excited to give you a glimpse of the fun we had.

So, let’s dive in and relive the excitement of New Year Party 2024!

We had the pleasure of hosting over 60 former and current residents from all 25 houses in attendance! It was a vibrant mix of nationalities and backgrounds, with everyone eagerly engaging in conversations, sharing stories, and reconnecting with old friends.

Calligraphy Competition, Quiz Time, and Mochi Pounding!

Our first activity was a calligraphy competition, a nod to the traditional Japanese New Year’s practice of “kakizome.” Instead of setting specific goals for the year, participants were encouraged to express themselves freely through words or illustrations. The creativity and enthusiasm displayed by each team were truly inspiring!

Following the calligraphy competition, we switched gears to a Borderless House-themed quiz. Teams competed against each other, answering questions about our houses, staff members, and various cultural tidbits. It was impressive to see the depth of knowledge and teamwork on display!

And of course, no New Year party would be complete without mochi pounding! Participants gathered around as we prepared fresh mochi using traditional mortars and pestles. The rhythmic pounding and laughter filled the air as everyone worked together to create delicious mochi treats.

As the evening drew to a close, we couldn’t help but reflect on the success of the event. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, we were thrilled to see the sense of community and camaraderie that flourished throughout the day. From heartfelt conversations to shared laughter, it was a celebration to remember.

Embracing the Future: Building on Memories, Cultivating Community

Looking ahead, we’re excited to continue fostering connections and creating memorable experiences for our residents. Be sure to stay tuned for future events, as there’s plenty more fun to come!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the New Year Party 2024. Here’s to another year of friendship, growth, and unforgettable moments at Borderless House Tokyo!

Experience Udon Making: A Community Event at BORDERLESS HOUSE Kansai!

Hello there! This is Borderless House, ringing in the New Year with you!

Happy New Year to everyone! As we kick off 2024, we’re excited to fill you in on what’s new at Borderless House in the Kansai region.

We run a network of 55 share houses in Japan, with 11 of them located in the vibrant Kansai area, which includes Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe. Our share houses in Kansai may be fewer in number than in Tokyo, but they offer a close-knit and lively community feel that’s really special.

In this spirit, we’re thrilled to bring you a special feature on a highlight event from last year – the Udon Making Experience, proudly hosted by Borderless House Kansai!

Cooking Up Connections: Udon Making Workshop

We had a great time hosting an Udon Making Experience in the kitchen at Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto.

The idea came from one of our university student residents who loves food. Before leaving our house, they wanted to do something fun and special with everyone.

The event was a big hit! We had 20 people join us, including international students from Ritsumeikan University and friends of our residents.

Udon is a popular dish that many people, including foreigners, enjoy eating. But making udon from scratch is something not many people, even in Japan, have tried. This event was a fun chance for everyone to try making udon themselves.

The best part of making udon? It was stepping on the dough!

It was a strange and fun experience to make food by stepping on it. This surprised everyone who joined in. We all stepped and pressed the dough very hard.

After stepping on the dough to make it firm, we rolled it out and cut it into noodles. Everyone was excited to try cutting the noodles, even though it was new for many of us.

We didn’t just make udon. We also tried making inari sushi and shiratama, a sweet dessert.

There were 20 of us, and we worked in teams. This way, everyone got to taste what we made. We all helped each other and worked well together in the kitchen!

Funny thing about the event – none of our team or student members had made udon before!

We were all starting from scratch. But we really wanted to make the event enjoyable for everyone. So here’s a little secret: we stayed up late the night before practicing how to make udon. Everyone got a good laugh when they heard about our last-minute training!

At Borderless House Kansai, we didn’t just stop at udon making. Throughout the past year, we organized a bunch of different events! We’re excited to share more stories and updates on our blog. We’d love it if you keep an eye out for our future posts and enjoy them!
