The following is posted at the request of San Francisco-based JET alum Beth Hillman<\/strong>, who has come up with a great idea for a group:<\/em><\/p>\n

Are you a Japanese woman or a woman with an interest in Japan? Maybe you just moved here from Tokyo this summer and want to make new friends… Maybe you taught English in Osaka a few years ago and want to revive your rusty Japanese… Whether you are a native Japanese woman or an American (or other nationality) woman with an interest in Japan, Joshikai may be for you!<\/p>\n

We are creating a community of Japanese women and women with an interest in Japan, gathering for a monthly meet-up to make friends, share stories and learn from each other. On the second Thursday of each month, we’ll meet at a location that is chic, reasonably priced, and conveniently located (near a BART station and other public transportation) for an evening of drinks and girl talk, where our members can connect and relax over a cocktail. We’ll also have a monthly guest speaker or theme, so that we can share knowledge and empower each other.<\/p>\n

Why women only? We want to create a relaxed atmosphere, with the opportunity to speak freely and connect with each other in a supportive environment.<\/p>\n

The first meeting of Joshikai will be on Thursday, January 14th from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m<\/strong>. We reserved the bar area at Amber<\/strong>, a downtown Indian restaurant (only a few minutes walk from Powell<\/strong> BART station). We’ve arranged for an extended happy hour for the entire event, with $5 appetizers, $3 beers, and $5 wine and cocktails. Feel free to come for the whole event, or arrive and leave whenever is most convenient for you.<\/p>\n

Please join us!<\/p>\n

Joshikai is free<\/strong> and open to all women with a connection to Japan. It isn’t necessary to RSVP, but if possible, let us know you are coming by e-mailing Nobuko and Beth at joshikai.sf@gmail.com<\/strong>. Feel free to ask us any questions and offer any advice or requests; we want to hear your ideas to make this group a success!<\/p>\n

We hope to see you there! Please pass this on to anyone who might be interested.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
