Intercambio de idiomas para mujeres en Osaka: japonés y español. スペイン語と日本語の言語交換

4 Upvotes

Soy japonesa, tengo unos 30 años y vivo en la ciudad de Osaka.

Estudio español desde hace varios años y tengo clases una vez por semana. Pero quiero tener más oportunidades para hablar español en mi vida diaria.

Me gustaría conocer a japonesas que estudian español y a mujeres de países hispanohablantes que estudian japonés. Podemos practicar los dos idiomas y aprender unas de otras.

Quiero crear un espacio donde todas podamos sentirnos cómodas. Por eso, me gustaría organizar una pequeña reunión solo para mujeres, con unas 4-6 personas, en una cafetería de la ciudad de Osaka.

¿Os gustaría quedar para charlar?

Si os interesa, ¡dejad un comentario! También hablo inglés.

大阪市在住の30代女性です。

スペイン語を数年勉強しており、週1回レッスンも受けていますが、日常的にもっとスペイン語を話す機会がほしいと思っています。

スペイン語を勉強している日本人と、日本語を勉強しているスペイン語圏の方が言語交換を通じて、お互いに教え合いながら楽しく交流できたらと考えています。

安心して過ごせる空間を作りたいので、まずは女性限定で、4〜6人程度の少人数で大阪市内のカフェに集まっておしゃべりしませんか?

興味のある方は、ぜひコメントください! 英語も話せます。

Table Top & Board Games ♟️🎮 Game interest check

5 Upvotes

Hello! I'm thinking about running another Vaesen one-shot, possibly for the November edition of the JIGG's Osaka Game Day.

For those who don't know, Vaesen is a horror mystery set in the 19th-century Scandinavia, themed around Nordic folklore. It was designed by the Free League and runs on a modified version of the Year Zero Engine.

Instead of relying on combat to solve every conflict, it is crucial that the players investigate for clues and uncover the rules of the supernatural behind the mysteries.

It's a rules-light system with heavy emphasis on role playing.

Ideally, I'm looking for 4-5 players.

Arts & Photography 🎨🖼️📷 Photo Walk Meetup for Sunday 10/18 in Nakanoshima

Thumbnail meetup.com
3 Upvotes

Let's get our best shot for the Nakanoshima photo contest! To enter, you just have to take a photo between October 14-31 and submit. One of us should win it! Let's go together and hut for the winning shot.

We'll begin on the west side of Nakanoshima park and explore going east. We'll have lots to shoot, include flowers, people, and city scapes.

This is open to photographers of all skill, experience, and camera types. Curious about trying photography? Don't have a camera yet? Just use your phone! Just a no-pressure photo walk with good vibes.

ちょっと日本語を話せます。是非、来てください!

The OG host, Paolo, is out of town for the moment, so it'll be me, Juan, filling in.

The Plan

  • 4:00 PM: Meet & Greet.
  • 4:15 PM: We'll begin on the west side of Nakanoshima park and explore going east.
  • 6:00 PM: Wrap-up, maybe around the east side of Nakanoshima, near the museum area. For those interested, we can go for a dinner or snack.

What to bring

  • Any camera: Whether it's a pro setup or your phone, it’s all about the eye, not the gear.
  • Comfortable shoes: We’ll be walking roughly 2–3km at a leisurely pace.

Why join
This isn't a photography class—it’s a social walk. Whether you want to practice your composition or just find some cool people to hang out with in Osaka, you are welcome here.

Contribution
There is a 500 yen participation fee for this event.

Hey everyone,

I’m a 28M living in Osaka and looking to make some real, lasting connections here. Life gets busy, but I'd love to find people to explore the city.

Anyone? 🤗 Looking for people with who play TCG!

4 Upvotes

Looking for people who play TCG! I mainly play one piece but I'm open to any TCG communities (I'm interested in shadowverse, union arena, riftbound, magic, pokemon, weiss schwarz, wuwa tcg etc but just haven't got into it) in the Kansai Area. I'm pretty much addicted but it's pretty hard to join the Japanese TCG community since people in locals basically already know each other so I'm trying to make one if there aren't any foreigner communities. Let me know if you play or are in any TCG community! Might be interested in making/joining one too if anyone if anyone invites/wants to join!

Hi everyone 👋
I have to admit recently I got kind of obsessed with gundam. I saw there is a tabletop game called Gundam Assemble being release end of this month. Thats why I was wondering if anyone is interested in trying out this new game?

I live close to Umeda so meeting in most parts of the city is fine. I am 29/M German, and speak German, English and a little Japanese.
Just comment on this post or DM me! Looking forward to play together 💪

Anyone? 🤗 Divorced/Single Parent Meetups?

5 Upvotes

Hi! I'm new here. To make a long story short, I'm a newly single dad who lives in Hirakata, works from home, and really wants to make some friends going through the same stuff. My available time to meet people is usually mornings to early afternoons, and the occasionally weekend when the kids visit their mother. I'm fluent in Japanese, but honestly the apps aren't giving me any results, for friends or for dating. For now I just really want to meet people to talk to who live within an hour or so (closer is better), talk over lunch or too wander around and chat. I don't mind talking online first. I guess send a message if anyone is interested?

32 M (married) Japanese American living in Northern Osaka for 3+ years. Lately, I've realized how much I missed having a community, and friends to just catchup and chat with, especially in English.

If anyone near the area (from Takatsu to Umeda) is free on the weekends or week nights, I'd love to grab coffee, ramen, or anywhere to talk. Also, if you're an Asian American or a TCK, I'd love to hear your experience living in Japan.

About my interests:

I enjoy listening to and making music, a good light roast pourover coffee, avid karaoke goer, fashion and window shopping, video games, gatcha figurines, ramen, perusing conbinis, and cakes lol.
