What we’re about
🇯🇵✨ Japanese Sake & Bonfire Retreat: Escape the Ordinary (2-Day Student Getaway near Kyoto/Osaka)
🌟 About the Group & Our Mission
Our Purpose: To Fire Up Your Spirit!
This event is driven by a simple, passionate goal: To help you blow off stress, leave your worries behind, and feel energized.
We know starting university or a new life abroad can be tough. If you've ever felt stressed, isolated, or like you don't quite fit in, this group is your safe place. We aim to create a warm, welcoming environment where you can truly relax and recharge.
👥 Who Should Join Us?
We are looking for students (and young professionals) who are:
- Feeling the Pressure: Students who are stressed, overwhelmed by studies, or simply tired of the routine of city life.
- Seeking Connection: Individuals who want to meet new people outside of their usual circle (different universities, different backgrounds) and share genuine conversations.
- Curious Explorers: Anyone eager to experience authentic Japanese culture—not just shrines, but the local traditions of Japanese sake (nihonshu) and bonfire gatherings.
- Ready to Detox: People who want a weekend of nature, digital detox, and deep relaxation.
Note: All participants must be 20 years or older to legally consume alcohol in Japan.
🗺️ What We Will Do (A 5-Sense Reset 2-Day Program)
This is more than a party; it's a full mind-and-body reset in the magnificent nature of Kawachinagano (near Osaka).
🌙 Day 1: The Bonfire Sake Tasting Night - Bonfire & Chill (五感の刺激): We will gather around a warm, crackling bonfire. You'll engage your senses with the smell of the woodsmoke, the sound of the crackling fire, and the sight of the starry sky.
- The Ultimate Sake Experience (日本酒を体験): We will host a guided tasting of approachable, high-quality Japanese Sake (Nihonshu), Shochu, and Umeshu (Plum Wine). No prior knowledge needed! Discover your favorite Japanese drink.
- Deep Connection (出会い): Share stories and ideas with new friends from different universities and backgrounds in a relaxed, open setting.
☀️ Day 2: Exploring Our "Secret Base" (旧松中亭/en.undertemple)
We will spend the day maximizing the unique features of the beautifully renovated traditional Japanese complex: - Relax & Refresh: Experience the ultimate detox with a session in the onsite Sauna surrounded by nature.
- Culture & Fun: Explore the property’s assets, which include a traditional cafe, bamboo groves, a garden, and even karaoke!
- Recharge: Walk through the serene area and leave with your batteries fully charged for the week ahead.
