What Tomomi Y. is saying about this Meetup Group

We have great members who all respect each others interests. We have all level speakers, all ages, non Japanese speakers with different interests in Japan. We enjoy learning from each other and discover the Japan we don't know. I am so glad to meet so many people including Japanese and non-Japanese people in this area through this meetup group and sharing thoughts. (^-^)
