Dear YCN members!
On Wednesday March the 26th we have something very special in store for you.
As most of you will be well aware of, we organize a get-together called “Little Saturday” or “Lill-Lördag” the first Wednesday of every month. In March though, Heartland is closed for renovations, so Little Saturday is canceled. But this fits our plans perfectly.
Last year in March YCN and the Swedish Chamber of Commerce jointly arranged the first ever Big Saturday. It became a highly appreciated event at restaurant Africa in Daikanyama. We have been urged to make a “sequel”. This event replaces both the YCN Little Saturday and the SCCJ club evening.
We would like to offer you a unique chance to interact in the wider Swedish community in Japan crossing generations and backgrounds while enjoying finger foods, drinks and atmosphere of popular restaurant Fujimamas in Harajuku-Omotesando.
In short, we offer you the second (annual?) :
