Bonjour, et Konnichiwa ! 🇯🇵 Je m’appelle Rica, je suis une Japonaise qui vient de Yokohama et organisatrice de ce groupe. Je vous propose de nous retrouver autour d'un café (ou d'un thé) et de parler japonais ensemble. ☕️
Ouvert à toute personne qui apprend le japonais maintenant ou qui a déjà appris le japonais. Discutons de manière détendue en petit groupe (de 4 participantes maximum) en japonais. Pas de soucis, si vous ne pouvez pas être là dès le début ou jusqu’à la fin. Nous aurons 1 heur de conversation en japonais, et vous pouvez rester 30 minutes supplémentaires si vous souhaitez échanger ou jouer le petite joue japonais sans restriction de langue après cela. 😊 Ce sera une belle occasion de vous exercer à l’oral en japonais, ainsi que de rencontrer d'autres apprenants de japonais qui pourront se motiver, échanger des bonnes idées et information pour apprendre le japonais ou le culture japonais. (Merci de noter que cet événement s’adresse à ceux qui ont déjà une base en japonais. Il n’y aura pas d’explications en français pendant la conversation. Si vous débutez tout juste le japonais, n’hésitez pas à m’écrire — je prévois un autre rendez-vous spécialement pour les vrais débutants !) N'hésitez pas à me contacter si vous avez des questions. J’ai hâte de vous voir ! ✨ 👉Vos consommations sont à vos frais. N’oubliez pas la monnaie ! 👉 Merci d’éviter d’annuler votre participation moins de 24 heures avant l’événement. Merci beaucoup, et à bientôt ! Rica

We’ll practice through fun games and interactive conversation in a relaxed, welcoming environment.

It's a perfect opportunity to continue our conversations and enjoy each other's company over a meal.

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating.

If the weather cooperates we will be meeting in the patio. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

Experience the breathtaking theatrical presentation of Rodgers & Hammerstein's® iconic musical film The Sound of Music. Meticulously restored and remastered in 4K for its 60th anniversary, the beloved classic is more brilliant than ever with pristine picture and sound. In this true-life story, Julie Andrews lights up the screen as Maria, a spirited young woman who leaves the convent and becomes a governess to the seven unruly children of Captain von Trapp (Christopher Plummer). Her warmth, charm and songs soon win the hearts of the children and their father. But when the threat of war rises, Maria is forced to attempt a daring escape with her new family. One of the most successful movie musicals of all time, The Sound of Music features unforgettable treasures like “Edelweiss,” “My Favorite Things,” “Climb Ev’ry Mountain” and “Do-Re-Mi.”

While some are still meeting online, this is an in person event. Please note that we have attendees of all levels of speaking, including some native speakers. All are welcome! Also, as we meet at the same time and place each week, many don’t RSVP on the app, so we will likely have more attendees than noted here. Note: if you are asked to pay and upgrade the Meetup app, this is not necessary. You can ignore this and still attend our meetings.
