~ International Meetup ~
"Just having a full stomach makes us happy"
International Cafetaria in YOLO BASE was started with this idea in mind.
A place where children and adults can interact regardless of nationality.
A place where everyone can enjoy a warm meal together.
A place where you can have fun while studying Japanese.
A place where you can seize opportunities for the future.
That is what "International Meetup" is.
