The Culture Cafe Podcast is a show about people living and working in Japan. Each episode is centered around a specific aspect of life abroad. We share personal stories of triumph, adversity, and everything in between all while enjoying one of the many interesting drinks Japan has on offer!
Welcome back! Today we break down one of our yearly school events: speech contests. Join in as Mitsuko and I share the plethora of opinions as well as stories we have with respect to this annual battle of the words. Today's episode also features special guest, Brianna Hom, all the way from Akita-ken in the Touhoku region of Japan!
After yet another break - due in large part to some hardcore overtime in preparation for the recently completed English Speaking Contests - we're back! This week is all about the Sports Festival, also know as, Undoukai. We break it down for you and talk about our most memorable moments from the past couple years worth of them. We also pay tribute to our (formerly) one-eyed daruma halfway through. Here's hoping he's pleased!
