Japanese-English Torrance Meetup

NEW LOCATION: We are now meeting at the Food Court at The Source OC in Buena Park. This meet-up was held in the Torrance Mitsuwa, South Bay Galleria and Westminster Mall. We are moving again to Buena Park starting 12/9/23. Please see more location details on this page. Any updated changes will be posted here.

This is a biweekly Japanese/English study group at the 3rd floor Food Court; however, please check comments on the event since we could move to the 2nd floor Food Court if the other one is full.

There will be a small white sign on the table labeled "LA/OC Meet-Up". This is a compliment to the other biweekly Sunday meetup (alternate weekends) at South Bay Galleria (hosted by Yumi & Ken) but will be conducted in Orange County instead.

We hope to have a good mix of English and Japanese learners that can help each other improve their language skills. Bring your books or materials with you.

We request that everyone buys some food or drink in order to stay on the mall's management's good side. There is quite a selection of Asian food here with mostly Korean cuisine. We could have a small group go out afterward.

PLEASE NOTE:

1. This is NOT a dating meetup. There are other meetups for that. Please be respectful of and courteous to our members. Pests will be asked to leave.
2. Please report any inappropriate behavior immediately to the organizer Darrell. As an organizer, I hold this meetup with good intentions, which first and foremost are an appreciation of Japanese culture and language, and a desire to study and learn.
3. Learning/knowing Japanese is not a requirement. Some attend for socializing as well.

Please join us for our biweekly Japanese/English language exchange back at the South Bay Galleria mall in the 3rd floor cafeteria near the Italian food. This is a free-form group that generally has about 12+ participants every meetup. We request that everyone buys some food or drink in order to stay on the venue management's good side and continue to be able to use their space.
