What we’re about
We are an international tech group for nature lovers. Let's co-work, go hiking, snowboarding, and eat up local yummy foods! Please prioritise taking public transportation over driving a car, as we aim to be the most sustainable meetup group in Japan.

- Tea & Code
- Nature walks for Brainstorming
- UX workshops
- Writing workshops
- Environmental education
- Nature photo tour
- Vegan lunch
- Zoom meeting

- Sapporo Morning Devs🗼 #1JOHNSON'S TEA LOUNGE ジョンソンズティーラウンジ, Sapporo
Bring your project, build strong skills, and connect with tech friends nearby👩🏻💻
This is our first morning coding event, aiming to work efficiently and code cleaner to help reduce digital CO₂ emissions.
For the first couple of times, let’s go find our favourite cafes. Please note that this place has wider spaces between people compared to Tokyo. If half of us don't need to use the outlet, we can take the easy-to-talk tables instead. Let's see, and please give us feedback for our future events!
In Yokohama, I host the same events every weekend. You are welcome to join when visiting around Tokyo!
