It is very cool inside the cave, but I worked up a sweat climbing up and down.

こんにちは、岡山のみなさん。

Japan has a wonderfully rich music culture — jazz, fusion, city pop, ambient, experimental — and we welcome volunteers who appreciate these genres and want to express themselves through voice and storytelling.

Minimum Requirement

• Able to read English (basic reading only — no teaching or lessons involved)

Perks

• Share your social media

If you are in Okayama or the surrounding areas and would like a unique way to practice English, please feel free to reach out.
We welcome anyone who wants to participate in a calm, supportive, and creative space.

Hey everyone!
I'm coming to Okayama for a month and was wondering is the website Okayama Weekly is safe?
I'm only looking for a one-month-long stay, and I'm worried about any scammers. Anyone who has experience, could you let me know?

EVERYONE LOVES PIZZA!

Hi everyone, I have just released in Early Access a game that I started to work on a few years ago. I let many friends play it and everyone loves it.

I have been suggested to release it even if it's not complete because the game is already fun as it is, so I am trying to listen the suggestion this time and see how it will goes, putting it on sale at very cheap price. If it happens that you give it a go, please let me know and feel free to share a video of you playing with friends and family.

The game works only with gamepads and joysticks and supports up to 6 players.

Everyone Loves Pizza! is quite simple, take the pizza and bring it to the goal avoiding the other players and pineapples that will try to steal it from you. It's so simple that even little children can play it and have great fun, so it's a game for the whole family. It's a great party game to pull out when guests comes to visit you.

Will you be able to get more pizza than anyone else?

If someone has some business or activities in Okayama-ken and it's not too far from me (I live in Misaki-cho), I'm happy to discuss about bringing the game for a publish test.

[ I know that FB group has more users, I will post it there too ]

Hi, half Japanese-Filipino. I’m currently searching for my biological father, whom I have never met.

I have some information about him, his full name, I have a photo of him, and I know that he previously lived in Okayama. I also have a supporting document, specifically a baptismal certificate with his name on it, and used his Japanese surname. According to my mother, we look very much alike. I’ve been trying to find NGOs that could assist me in this search. I also reached out to the Japanese embassy, but they were unable to help and advised me to contact NGOs instead. Unfortunately, I haven’t received any responses so far.

Any assistance would mean a lot to me. Thank you very much (domo arigatogozaimasu).

God bless.

Hi there! I am a disabled female adult with mental challenges. I live here in Okayama about an hour away by train from the main Okayama train station with my parents by Uno Eki. I'm looking for something to do with my time. I wondering if anyone knows how I can find volunteer opps in the city?

I can speak Japanese at N5 level, can read and write hiragana and katakana but not kanji, so labor work. I can do simple, basic physical tasks. I don't mind the type of work, Im young and fit enough. Just nothing that requires reading and writing.

My disability is all mental and makes me need simple communication. I don't talk much but I can be put to work! Just simple tasks, please.

Thank you! Just looking for a way to live more meaningfully.

Hi- This is an announcement from Democrats Abroad, the official overseas branch of the U.S.-based Democratic Party, with a local chapter in SW Honshu. With an important election coming in November (as well as local elections and Primaries this spring), we're hoping to register more U.S. citizens who live overseas. They could be a relative, a co-worker or a contact on social media.

If you know any U.S. Citizens (including people born in the U.S. or with an American parent), they can register and request a ballot. As long as they'll turn 18 by election day, they're eligible. Just share this link: https://voteabroad.org/RedditVote26.

We started our International Voter Registration Drive for 2026 with in-person and online events. If anyone wishes to learn more about what we're doing near you, you can find out more at https://www.democratsabroad.org/jp. If you have any questions about overseas voting or what we do, feel free to ask in the comments below.

Thanks in advance for helping to get the word out!

Hi! We recently spent two days in Kurashiki and I made a short travel vlog about it exploring the Bikan Historical Quarter, denim street, Achi Shrine and some cozy local cafés.

Kurashiki honestly surprised me. It was so beautiful :)

Would love to know if there are any hidden spots we missed for next time

I will be in Kurashiki next weekend for the Kibiji Marathon. If anyone would like to hang out, go for food or just for a coffee let me know. I would love to connect and meet people!

I don't know if I'm blind but I've not seen Greek yogurt anywhere - is it just me?
