Let’s celebrate Thanksgiving and make friends!🌎😊🤝

It’s not a familiar event in Japan, but yesterday we held a Thanksgiving event that we called “Let’s celebrate Thanksgiving and make friends!
(Actually, Thanksgiving Day is today.)
In the U.S. and other countries, it is a day of thanks and sacrifice for the harvest and the blessings of the previous year and is a day to celebrate with family and friends.
Many local Japanese people and foreigners who have left their families to live and work in Hachioji participated in the event.
We celebrated Thanksgiving Day with new friends and talked about “What is Thanksgiving Day? Three participants talked about Thanksgiving Day, including the differences between their respective hometowns.

At the end of the day, the participants were given pies made by Johanna from the International Operations department as gifts.
Next month, the International Office will be hosting a social Christmas party called PORTAL Night”
