Did you make as many friends as you imagined before you came to Japan? Of course, you have met many good friends in your school or workplace. It is, however, quite difficult to make more friends elsewhere, generally speaking.
In Kyoto International Club Klexon, we have 32 annual language meetings in a public conference room and about 30 events like parties, one-day trips, camping trips, and so on. You can make many good, good friends through the activities. Of course, you will also meet other overseas people there.
The language meeting is free of charge for overseas people. Your participation will be greatly appreciated as a volunteer English speaker, since all the Japanese participants would like to learn English and about your culture. Our events like parties or BBQ are resonably priced.
Why can you make such good friends in Klexon?
People who are really interested in learning English and foreign culture gather in Klexon.
They are selected through a review of their application form and an interview. So, the atmosphere of Klexon is very good! You can easily make many good friends in this friendly atmosphere.
The topics of the language meetings are like “festivals in your home country”, “what you want now”, or “Xmas presents in your childhood”. The meetings are always filled with smiles. You may also learn about some intersting information local to Kyoto.

Our events are another great way to make new friends. The language meetings are held a location accessible by mass transit.
You can experience what you can’t do by yourself in Klexon events. Our shiga branch's members also join in these events! So, you can meet people you wouldn't normally meet at Klexon's meetings.
The language meeting is held in a conference room near Karasuma-Oike, the center of Kyoto city. It is located in a convenient place acceble from all around Kyoto. Since the annual schedule is determined in advance, you can easily plan for them. The meeting starts from 19:00. You can join in it after school or after your job.
We started this club in 2006. You can view our long history online!
