환영합니다!!
저희는 한국인 외국인 할거없이 누구나 광교 이웃이라면 동네친구로서 편하게 그리고 재밌게 함께 영어나 한국어로 대화하고 한국어-영어 언어교환도 하고 서로의 문화에 대해서 배워가는 그룹입니다!
매주 토요일 오전에 가까운 카페에서 정기 모임이 있구요. 캐주얼한 이웃들과의 모임이니 편한 마음으로 오셔서 자유롭게 이야기 나누시면 됩니다^^
저희는 다양한 문화의 사람들이 함께 안전하고 즐겁게 공존하며 서로에게 배우고 서로를 감사하게 생각하는 공동체를 꿈꾸는 사람들입니다. 한국에 계신 외국인분들도 환영받는 곳이 될수 있고, 한국인 분들도 열린 마음으로 새로운 문화를 배우고 받아들이고 다양성의 한국을 만들어가는 작은 발걸음을 내딛는 그룹이 되길 소망합니다.
누구든 상관없습니다. 국적, 나이 (성인만), 성별, 언어 레벨 다 상관없으니 편안한 마음으로 들러보세요! 다른 문화 출신 동네 친구 하나씩은 이제 있어야죠. 시대가 어느 시댄데!
