Rice Harvesting Adventure in Tochigi

On September 29, residents from BORDERLESS HOUSE in Tokyo gathered in Tochigi for a unique agricultural experience－rice harvesting!

Organized in collaboration with “WakuWakuOkome,” this event gave residents the rare chance to step into the fields and harvest rice themselves, learning about one of Japan’s oldest and most valued traditions.

This hands-on experience allowed everyone to connect with nature, learn about the hard work behind Japan’s staple food, and bond with housemates through a meaningful activity.

Events like these make living in a share house in Japan even more enriching, especially for foreigners eager to dive into Japanese culture and make memories outside the city.

Asakusabashi Omikoshi Festival 

Tenants from the Borderless House Asakusabashi share house joined the local community for the lively Omikoshi Festival, where they helped carry the traditional portable shrine, or mikoshi, through the streets.

This exciting event allowed our residents from different backgrounds to experience a unique aspect of Japanese culture up close, right in the heart of their neighborhood.

For many foreign residents at BORDERLESS HOUSE who are studying Japanese or have a strong interest in Japanese traditions, this festival offered a chance to engage in real language exchange. Conversations flowed in both English and Japanese, making it a true cultural exchange.

Through hands-on involvement, residents gained new perspectives on Japanese customs and deepened their understanding of local traditions. This event goes beyond just observing; it helps foreign residents at our Tokyo share houses feel more connected to the local community and to Japan as a whole.

Summer Festival Matsuri — Cooking Event 

Inspired by Japan’s lively summer festivals (Matsuri), BORDERLESS HOUSE hosted a cooking event where residents gathered to prepare some of Japan’s most popular festival foods.

Divided into small groups, residents learned how to make iconic dishes like takoyaki (octopus balls) and yakisoba (fried noodles), gaining hands-on experience with traditional Japanese cooking techniques.

The event wasn’t just about cooking; it was also a great chance for language exchange and meeting new people. Residents from various share houses in Tokyo joined, creating a vibrant atmosphere full of conversation, laughter, and shared experiences.

This interactive event captured the joyful spirit of Japan’s summer festivals, allowing residents to enjoy a piece of Japanese culture while building new friendships in a fun, festive setting.

台北Share House活動 | 搶救海龜大作戰之前往沙崙海灘淨灘！

嘿！大家還記得BORDERLESS HOUSE去年在Share House科技大樓2舉辦的減塑章魚燒派對嗎？

我們不僅品嘗了日本房客製作的道地章魚燒，更藉由活動傳遞減塑對地球保護的重要性。

今年，我們帶著這份熱情來到了沙崙沙灘，透過實際行動清理海灘上的垃圾，為海洋生態系統盡一份力。讓我們一起攜手，為地球創造更乾淨、美好的未來！

與BORDERLESS HOUSE一起前往淡水沙崙海灘吧！

當天台北的太陽很大，雖然風有些強勁，但涼爽的氣息吹散了烈陽的攻擊。BORDERLESS HOUSE 的Staff與共居公寓的房客們在沙灘一邊撿垃圾，一邊感受著大海的寧靜。

令人驚喜的是，我們還遇到了另一群也是來淨灘的大學生，他們對於台北有以國際交流為核心的共居公寓感到新奇！

有了他們的加入，也讓整個活動變得更加熱鬧。隨著垃圾袋越來越滿，房客們之間的互動也越來越多，情誼也因此變得更深厚。

活動結束後，share house的房客決定去淡水老街放鬆一下，許多外國房客們是初次來訪。大家沿著河岸散步，邊逛邊吃，夕陽西下的景象為這次充實的一天劃下了完美的句點。

“Happy Halloween!”

The spooky yet exciting season has arrived once again! Many of you might already be familiar with this yearly celebration, where people come together in their best costumes, share candy, and enjoy Halloween with friends. It’s also a great opportunity for international exchange!

At “BORDERLESS HOUSE,” an international share house that welcomes residents from Japan and overseas, Halloween has become one of our biggest annual events.

On October 19, 2024, 86 residents from our Tokyo houses gathered in Akihabara, dressed up in their best costumes for a Halloween party full of fun and cultural exchange. The atmosphere was lively, and everyone had a blast!

Scenes from the Tokyo Share House Halloween Party

This event invited current BORDERLESS HOUSE residents in Tokyo, their friends, and former residents connected through the “Borderless Mate Program.”

With everyone dressed up in Halloween-themed costumes—ranging from movie heroes and zombies to popular anime characters—conversations were lively, even among people meeting for the first time. The creative costumes definitely helped break the ice!

At BORDERLESS HOUSE, many residents join with a desire to engage in international exchange and improve their Japanese.

One of the most attractive aspects of living here is the opportunity to connect not only with housemates from your own share house, but also with residents from other share houses, making new friends across the Borderless network.

Our annual large-scale Halloween event is just one of those chances to expand your circle and make lasting connections!

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

Residents from BORDERLESS HOUSE share houses in Osaka and Kyoto came together for a memorable day out at Lake Biwa, Japan’s largest freshwater lake known for its stunning views and crystal-clear waters. Located just a short trip from Kyoto, Lake Biwa is a popular destination for both locals and tourists, offering a perfect setting for outdoor activities and relaxation.

The gathering was an ideal opportunity for both new and long-term residents to bond through shared experiences. New residents were warmly welcomed into the fold, experiencing firsthand the inclusive and friendly atmosphere that BORDERLESS HOUSE is known for. Together, they made hot dogs, enjoyed swimming in the lake, and spent time taking in the natural beauty around them.

Language Exchange: Enhancing Language Skills and Friendships in Tokyo Share House

At BORDERLESS HOUSE Tokyo, the recurring language exchange event provides an engaging platform for residents to practice both English and Japanese. This event is particularly popular among those living in share houses across Tokyo, offering a space where locals and foreigners alike can come together to learn from one another, build connections, and improve their language skills in a relaxed environment.

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.

For foreign tenants, these exchanges are an invaluable way to immerse themselves in Japanese culture while building friendships that make their time in Japan more meaningful.

A World of Experiences Awaits at BORDERLESS HOUSE

The diverse events offered by BORDERLESS HOUSE, highlight the vibrant and multicultural community at the heart of each share house. These gatherings are more than just fun activities; they create opportunities for residents to learn about different cultures, build lasting friendships, and gain new skills, making each day an enriching experience.

台北Share House活動 | 台灣秘境三貂嶺：一日爬山行程推薦與文化交流

台北周邊的自然資源豐富，提供了多條適合登山與健行的路線，而這次BORDERLESS HOUSE選擇了擁有壯麗瀑布景觀的三貂嶺步道。

此次share house活動集合了20多位來自世界各地的房客一起參與，大家在健行過程中彼此熟識，透過自然的洗禮建立友誼。登山的同時，我們也在感受著台灣自然的獨特魅力，與不同文化間的交流更加緊密。

接下來，就讓我們從三貂嶺車站出發，一起走進這條充滿自然魅力的三貂嶺古道，感受它的壯麗瀑布與寧靜氛圍吧！

瀑布之旅：合谷、摩天和枇杷洞瀑布

走了一小段後遇見了合谷瀑布。這座高度約15米的瀑布靜靜地流淌著，四周被濃密的樹林包圍，令人感到平靜與放鬆。這是唯一一個只能遠觀的瀑布，無法接近瀑布底下。不過為了讓旅客更方便欣賞，這裡還設有觀景台。

沿著步道前行大約20分鐘後，就會到達摩天瀑布。摩天瀑布是三貂嶺古道上較為壯觀的一處，瀑布的高度比合谷瀑布更高，水流直衝而下，宛如一道銀幕懸掛在山壁上。這裡瀑布水勢強勁，瀑布底部的石塊和水池更增添了壯麗的氛圍。

Borderless House的房客們有的在瀑布底下稍作休息，感受流水的沁涼；有的在景觀台欣賞美景，並拍下許多照片。

接著繼續攀登，我們抵達了本次的最後一站——枇杷洞瀑布。這座瀑布位於整條步道的最高處，它的水流從懸崖上的洞穴中傾瀉而下，聲音在山谷中迴盪，增添了神秘氛圍。共居公寓的大家在此處停留約一個半小時，享用午餐的同時，更能好好感受此處的靜謐與交流。我們在這裡拍下了團體照，記錄下這次的美好回憶。

讓我們用沁涼的冰品為此行畫上完美的句點吧！

回程途中，房客們在車站附近的小店享用了冰涼的冰品，為一天的旅程增添了放鬆的一刻。雖然這個季節瀑布的水量不如平常那麼豐沛，但這次的三貂嶺之行仍然讓我們感受到了大自然的壯麗與安靜。不僅對台灣的自然美景有了更深的體驗，也加深了各共居公寓房客們間的交流和友誼。讓我們期待下一次的share house活動吧！
