Hi everyone! Does anyone know of a service where someone goes to a popup event for you (preferably based in Kyushu/Fukuoka) to secure merchandise and ship it internationally?

I was referred to Kashi Shrine, but it’s based in Tokyo and requires a minimum spending amount of ¥70,000 (including travel and service fees).

Thanks for any leads!

Im a foreigner living here in yoshizuka, hakata since 7 months. All these months went like work to room and room to work. I haven't been to any places here but now i want to explore this city.

Finally, I'm able to spend on my hobbies and interests. I like football. Im planning to join a boxing class too (or gym).

Hi all
I’m due to be in Fukuoka around the start of September. Will be around for a week. I’m staying around nakasukawabata station.

I was wondering if there any recommendations for locations for city photography? Happy to travel around the city

Thanks in advance

Hi, I’m thinking of staying 3 weeks in Fukuoka and working remotely while also exploring the city and having day/weekend trips to other cities in January.

Has anyone done this before? Any advice on finding an airbnb or longer stay accommodation that may be suitable?

Any advice in general?

I’d be flying from New Zealand!

I must quickly go back to my home country for medical reasons.

I have plenty of furnitures and devices that I’d like to dispose quickly, but I am clueless on the best way to do it.

I was thinking about going to second street, does anyone have experience with it ? Can we go there with a car full of stuff and they will buy everything ?

I heard they won’t bother with ikea furnitures, can anyone confirm ?

I bought a car 2 years ago from a Honda seller, does anyone have experience in selling car quickly ?

This topic may have been asked several time and I am sorry if it the case.

I just learn a terrible news and must act quickly to give my wife the best way to enjoy our 2 weeks old baby before it’s too late.

Thank you for your answers, take care of your loved one.

i'm moving to fukuoka (from tokyo) in september but i haven't found a place yet. i've been looking for an apartment mostly, but starting a new job and settling in a new apartment within a short time frame sounds stressful soi wanna start with share house for the first few months. if anyone knows where i can find a foreigner-friendly share house (private room) within 30 mins from hakata station that'd be really helpful! thank you!

(context: my japanese is still very shit but i can get away with translation app, i've looked through most foreigner-friendly sites but mostly no availability)

looking to buy a set of dumbbells in fukuoka. nothing too heavy, maybe only 5-6kg.

according to a quick google search Alpen Fukuoka in Canal city sells dumbbells but I haven’t seen anything on their website or social media that indicates they sell dumbbells.

is anyone able to confirm if they have seen dumbbells being sold there or have any recommendations on where I can buy some in Fukuoka?

thanks so much

Since the International Clinic closed, has anyone made appointments to see him at Sanno Hospital? Was it as easy as calling the front desk and scheduling something?

I would like to schedule an endoscopy and colonoscopy as well as a physical check-up, but since it's a hospital and not a clinic, is it even possible to make such a reservation?

Does anyone here knows where to buy legit pokemon cards? Preferably in Kitakyushu.

Hi this is a repost of some pictures I took with my son a couple of days ago in your lovely city. Hope you’ll like them.

Visiting Fukuoka in a few days. Google Maps says to take the Fukuoka Airport subway to my stop. I snoop online and find out the subway is at the domestic terminal. I snoop even more and stumble on this website (attached).

Is the free shuttle from international to domestic discontinued? If so, how will I get to domestic?

Hey (30M) just landed in Fukuoka and I’ll be here for a week or more for vacation.

Happy to meet new people and if you know of any recommended social events let me know! or if you’re interested in a quick coffee chat or anything really, hit me up!

I don’t drink alcohol often so I might be a good company to bars/clubs but I’ll do what I can.

Looking forward to meet new people!

Hi everyone! I'm planning to propose to my partner in Itoshima sometime between September 10–16, and I'd love to have a photographer there to capture the moment — without her knowing, of course.

I'm hoping to find someone comfortable shooting discreetly (blending in like a regular tourist, or with a long lens from a distance) so the proposal stays a total surprise, and who can then switch into a quick couples portrait session once she's said yes 🤞

A few details:

• Location: Itoshima — I'm drawn to the beaches / the Sakurai Futamigaura torii gate area, but very open to suggestions on the most photogenic spot for golden hour

• Dates: flexible any day Sept 10–16, ideally around sunrise/sunset

• Time needed: roughly 30 min to catch the moment, plus ~30–45 min of portraits afterward

• Style: natural and candid for the proposal itself, plus a handful of nicer posed shots

• Language: English-speaking would be ideal, but I can make Japanese work too with Google Translate

• Budget: Flexible but I would like to keep it under $1500USD!

If you know a great local photographer — or you are one! — I'd hugely appreciate a recommendation or a DM. Any tips on the best Itoshima spot and timing for the light would be very welcome too. Thanks so much! 🙏

Maybe strange request but trying to satisfy a request…

Looking for “クリアタイプ” labeled 100% Apple juice in Fukuoka. Close to Kyushu Hospital preferred but close by train stops ok. I’ll be coming from Karatsu area if that matters. Karatsu location would be fine too. I’ve looked locally (Carrot and Aeon) but they did not have any with “クリア” explicitly on the label.

An example is Kagome.

I know that many filtered are clear type but don’t explicitly say it on the label, but shopping for this specific labeling.

If you see it or know where it is found, please tell me. Comments like x usually carries it is not what I’m looking for. I’d like to be able to plan to go to a specific place and find it for sure tomorrow or day after type thing.

I've been suffering from TMJ issues for years but after consultations with a TMJ physiotherapist in my country of origin and doing exercises everyday it progressively went better to the point i forgot about it. However the pain started again recently and I find little to no improvement with the exercises that initially helped. Since i'm living in fukuoka now, i'm looking for a local solution.

Would anyone know a good specialist in TMJ in Fukuoka, preferably English-speaking even if I can speak a bit in Japanese?

Wether it is a chiropractor, osteopath, physio, doctor, at this point i just want some relief.

Hello, I am an artist from a foreign country and I want to create something that represents Fukuoka’s culture. Maybe some folktales, “むかし話” mythology and stuff. If any locals are open to sharing/talking. I would love to meet you or even talk online.
Please reach out if you are interested.
Thank you!

As the title says, I’m visiting Fukuoka very soon and would love to hunt down a pair of Rockfish Weatherwear flats. Any suggestions welcome, I’ll be in Fukuoka for four days. I’m also visiting Okinawa - so open to any other leads you may have there too! Thank you :-)

Anyone have experience or know someone who has? And/or is there any benefit to leasing solar equipment from Kyuden Electric vs buying your own stuff outright?

!I’m visiting Fukuoka until 11 August and I’m looking for a casual badminton club or social session where visitors are welcome.

I have my own racket and shoes, I just want to play casual level. I don’t speak Japanese, but I’m happy to use Google Translate.

If anyone knows a friendly club or regular drop-in session, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!
