Last Heisei EVENT!! Everybody come on now!! We held About 100 people International Exchange Christmas Party !

Jingle, bells! Jingle, bells! Jingle all the way!

The streets and shops became Christmas, so it is time to have Christmas Party !!

At Borderless House Christmas Party, there were some contents such as BINGO game, SNS award, and etc. Everybody had a lot of fun on Dec 8th.

So, now we are going to show you a little bit about the Party !!

 

 

How was it ?? Do you want to know more details ?

By the way, this is Yuya who is one of the staffs of this event !!

In this vlog, I am going to tell you about Christmas Party !!

Before getting into, we want to thank you all who came to this party !!

We are so  glad that a lot of people from different house showed up this party.

We felt too short because we had a lot of fun at the party.

 

You can make  friends who will spent Christmas with you !? International Party has to be Borderless House

First, I am going to show you the party place called “silk load cafe“ in Kinshicho.

The cafe has a good atmosphere, so we were so excited to start Christmas Party.

It is actually a long story to decide this place, but we are happy that everybody liked it.

If you have time, please check this cafe 🙂

Also, there were about 100 people joined this Party from 21 countries !

 

You might have an idea who is the host and cameraman. Yes, there were two people who volunteered to have this party

The party has started and everybody was having a fun with new friends.

But wait?? there is a guy who is the host, but he is not Borderless staff. Who is this ??

 

Guess what ?? He is ONE of tenants in Omori 1 House.

His nickname is Satis who was one of the host at this Party.

Before he decide to join the event team…….

Lsat month, our staff visited his house and talked with him and suddenly,

He said he will move out from the house because he wants to travel all over the world !!

We were sad because he has stayed in Borderless House for a long time, and had a great experience.

So, we wanted to do something with him for his last memory as Borderless House tenants.

And, we offered him to be the host at this party…

He said Yes and joined this event team from the beginning !!!

Also, there is another guy who is volunteered to help this event  

 

 

His name is Raba chan who is living in Funabori House !!

He was the cameraman at this party because we know that he loves taking photography and he has great skills as well.

He was happy to be the cameraman  and brought the great camera and taking a lot of photos at this Party !!

All photos that I used in this vlog is taken by Raba chan. He is truly talented !!!!

 

Thank you for taking great photos, Raba chan !!

Som now, let’s get into the our first contents!!

Satis san explained the rules for everybody  !!

The party has just started !!

 

You can be a frend with people from different house !! Exciting Contents !!

Our staff  always talk that International exchange is the key, so of course, there is a opportunity that you can talk to people from other house in the content !!

Theme is “ connect across border “

What kind of content would that be……..?

The gesture relay game !! Can you understand what people try to tell you??

Yes !! Frist content was the Classic Party game “ Gesture game “!!!!

But, this is Borderless event, so we add some rules to make it more fun.

Rules are here !!!

Each group has 9 people. We gave first two people the topic and they gestured next peron, and the person guess the topic and show it to next two people and so on.

The topic was “Olympic”

If you were there, how would you gesture ?_

The interesting thing is that even though the topic was simple, everyone seemed confused about it because each one gestured differently.

 

For example. one tenant from Korea was doing archery, but another tenant from US was doing swim.

The person who guess the topic was so confused about it !!

His answer was sports culb !!

Topic is simple, but everyone takes it differently!!

That is why gesture game is funny !!

The first finished group got a prize !!!!!

The winner gets……..

 

10 packs of Nabe soup !!  LOL

We chose it because we want to use it with everybody like having Nabe party 🙂

You are the reason why I get free rent !! FACE BINGO GMAE!

What would you think of the Borderless Christmas event ???

Yes !! You are right !!

we can not have the Borderless Christmas Party without BINGO game !!

FACE BINGO GAME!!

Can you guess what it is??

Rule is simple

When people came to the party, we took photos of their face with number.

So, we set the photos in BINGO game program and we show it on the screen.

A person gets BINGO by yourself number, and another person gets BINGO by number your friend has.

There are a lot of people who was looking for people’s number

And, there are always prizes.

1st prize was 1 MONTH FREE RENT !!!!!

The lucky guy who got 1 month free rent ticket is ……..

 

this guy !! from Honancho House

How lucky he is !!!  Everybody was jealous about that !!

Congratulation !!

Who got most like on Instagram !! The SNS award is …..

Every Borderless House Event has SNS award !!

So, this time, we  asked everybody to post photos with #borderlesshouse as many as possible during the party..

Then, end of the party, we checked who gets most like on Instagram !!

SNS award is a pair ticket for team lab Borderless  !!!

The person who gets the prize is …………….

She is one of my best friends !!! We interviewed the tenant !!

The Christmas Party is getting end, and I found a guy who is enjoying the party so much.

I had eye contact with him, so I felt like I need to ask him why he is enjoying so much.

HIM : Hey, look!! I made best friend !!

 

ME : Wait what !?  but you just moved in Borderless House 2 weeks ago, and you found your best friend !? Also, you guys do not even live in the same house !!!!!

90 Zombies appeared !!! Borderless House Presents :International Exchange Halloween Party !!

Trick or Treat !!

Hello everybody!! This is Yuya as House manager at Borderless House.

It is the Halloween season from last saturday, people are celebrating Halloween !!

Off course, we are not missing this BIG event.

 

 

 

Guess what!! We held Borderless Halloween Party last week !!

Today, we are going to tell you about Borderless House Halloween Party.

 

 

This is the Biggest International Event !! Borderless House Special Halloween party

It has been 2 years since we had a Halloween event, so we rent the special place called 『in the house 』to have private event!!

There were 90 people from 22 countries joined the Halloween Party including the staffs.

 

Also our staff wore the Halloween costume, but the tenants were wearing much nicer costumes!! They are so into the Halloween!!

 

The professional make up!! You can be the Halloween look. The make up was done by our tenant!!

The stage and foods are greeting ready …

But something is missing… SO there was not enough fear !!!

Halloween is known as the ghost festival, so We can not celebrate Halloween without Zombies .

But …. if you look at the corner of the hall, Someone is making zombies and they are increasing so fast !!!!

 

Yes !! This is the one of the highlight of Halloween Party is make up booth which you can have Halloween makeup on by Make-up artist.

 

Also, this booth is taken care of one of our Borderless House tenants named K kun!

He is a hair stylist and also has been doing make up to famous artists.  He will be studying abroad to get more skills in this winter.

He has been living in one of the Borderless House in Shinjuku form the beginning. So, we asked him if he wants to do something to make last great memory in the Halloween event ….

 

K  yeah but it was so much fun staying in Borderless House, I already miss that.
I will definitely want to live here when I come back to Japan.

S  We are glad to hear that!! By the way, K kun
Would you like to make last great memory in this event ??

K Halloween Party !? sounds great !! I would do makeup.

 

That is why he was doing make up for us!! You are the best K kun!!

And, surprisingly, his Teacher, who is a professional make-up artist came this event from LA!!! She did make up for us for a hour !!

 

There were a lot of Zombies in this Party.

 

There is no  language barrier !!  Borderless House Special contents

This Halloween event has not only the fancy patty hall or make up booth !!

Borderless House is multicultural shared house, so we had some special contents that give you opportunity to talk to other people.

 

Who are your neighbors?? Making Borderless House map and new friends around your house !!

The first trick is this !!

This game is that we make the event hall  as Tokyo map and people try to make Borderless house map there.

 

This is quite sudden, but

Everyday you go to school or work and come back to home……

Have you ever wish to have variety of friends and opportunity to make friends around Tokyo ???

This game is the great opportunity to get to know people from other Borderless House and also see which Borderless House they are coming from.

 

The rule is simple!! We gave everyone a name tag which has number on it, so you just  look for people who have the same number as you do.

At the beginning of the game, everyone was confused about this game, but after telling them that they are neighbors, they were surprised about it.

After this game, they try to make next plans with neighbors!!!

This is THE Borderless House, right ??

 

Communication is about your heart!! Let’s make mummy

Before we decided to do this game, Staff Takuya who wore Banana costume in Halloween Party said ……..

“Everyone wants to be a mummy at least once in his/ her life “

The next contents is this !!! Toilet paper mummy !!

 

Let’s make mummy!!!

The rule :  we are making some groups ( each group has 6 people ) and give the 2 toilet paper to the groups. After start sign, you just make mummy !!

The winner will be the group that makes 2 awesome mummies, and will get the special Prize !!

 

There are people who want to be mummies, and people who want to make mummies.

Language is no problem in this game !! All you need is trying to understand people’s mind and good communication with your team.

 

And ……  The winner was the group that has staff Riko!!!

NO  WAY !!!!!

 

The first prize is a projector!? The best SNS award will be …….

The annual Borderless House SNS award, we choose the person for this award in this year as well !!

This year, we had two SNS prize !!

One is most like prize which is the persons who gets most like on instagram
