色んな言語を経験してみて、対話の大切さを分かるようになりました。
Danielle

Most of the community was open and active, we either ate together, watched movies together, went shopping or traveling together and had a great atmosphere. To all coming tenants: Please try and share time with the people of the house, it's so much fun, it's a shame to sign up to a sharehouse but be locked in your room all the time!

By living in a sharehouse you never feel alone (and if you need your own space, you can easily rest in your private room). You also learn how to live with many people from all around the world with different cultures.

Borderless house' s number one concern seems to make sure the communities are always kind to one another. And it works like a charm.

ボーダレスでは、年齢、身分、国籍も異なり、また全ての人が違うバッググラウンドを持っていることから、様々な人の考え方や価値観を知ることができたと思います。さらにそれらが私自身の価値観の変化に大きく影響していってると思えます。特にキャリアに対する考え方は、イベント後の深夜2時ごろの歓談でいろんな人と沢山話してきました。大学の友人とも就活について話し合うことはあると思いますが、同じ状況うえ、不安をこぼし互いに励ますことしかできません。ボーダレスハウスでは、社会人の方もいらっしゃいますし、就活でのOBインタビューより、より深く気軽に相談できます。そういった意味では、一緒に暮らしているからこそできる体験があると感じました。前述したように、国籍も異なる方と住むことから、文化の違いで軽く衝突した事もあります。その時に自分の未熟な部分を学ぶことができました。集団生活をしている以上、イライラすることもありましたが、最も人間性が成長できた貴重な体験であったと思います。

日本にいながら国際交流できた点がとてもよかったです。英語力の成長だけではなく、文化の違いを受け入れることで、自分の視野を広げることができる点が、自分に合っていました。
