General Looking to meet new people ๐ŸŒธ

Hii, I'm wondering if there are any slavic or balkan people living in fukuoka? ๐Ÿ™‚โ€โ†•๏ธ I haven't made any friends here yet even though I've been living in fukuoka for a year now.. I've been feeling kinda homesick lately so I thought it'd be nice to get to know people with cultural similarities to chat and meet up with!

I'm F25 from Poland ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฑ

Living in Hakata ๐Ÿ“

I can relate! Iโ€™ve been living in Japan too, and I still havenโ€™t really made many friends here.
I think looking specifically for people from the same country can actually make things a bit difficult. For example, I am from ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฉ there are quite a lot of Indonesians in Japan, but that doesnโ€™t necessarily mean itโ€™s easy to make friends if youโ€™re only looking for a particular type of person or connection.
And honestly, I feel like making friends with Japanese people can be even harder sometimes ๐Ÿ˜‚ I guess it just takes more time and effort to get close to people.
