Message from the Organizer 🌸
This time, since the hot days are continuing, we wanted to do something refreshing and also give all participants a chance to experience Japanese culture. So, we came up with a plan to make and enjoy kakigori (Japanese shaved ice) together while chatting. 🍧
I am always happy to meet new people and see familiar faces returning. The guests at LanCafé tend to be kind, easygoing, and open-minded, and I feel this community is gradually growing into something really warm and special.
I used to love visiting English conversation cafés, but after returning to my hometown in the Shonan and Yokohama area, I couldn't find a casual and welcoming one. So I thought, why not create one myself?
LanCafé is for anyone looking for a relaxed and encouraging space. Whether you have attended a conversation meetup before and felt like an outsider, or felt nervous speaking in front of others, this is a place where you can just be yourself and enjoy.
Let's build something fun and meaningful together!

主催から皆さまへ 🍀
今回は、暑い日も続いているので涼しげなことをやりたい&外国人の参加者に日本文化を体験していただきたいという想いで、かき氷を作って食べながらおしゃべりする企画を考えてみました🍧
これまで参加してくださった方々は本当に穏やかでフレンドリーな方ばかりで、LanCaféがいい雰囲気のコミュニティとして少しずつ育っているのを感じています。
以前、他の英会話イベントに参加したとき、常連さんの空気が入りづらかったり、自分の英語力に自信がなくて引け目を感じたりした経験がありました(実話です…涙)。
だからこそ、LanCaféでは「誰でも安心して話せる場所」にしていきたいと思っています。
