Bon-Odori, Takoyaki and more: Snapshots from Colorkrew’s Office in 2023
...As the new year begins, I reflect on the last 8 months since my move to Japan; In that time, I have gotten to know my new colleagues better through a myriad of social activities held in Colorkrew’s office in the past year.
One of the most memorable events that I participated in was the Welcome Party, where we welcomed new members to the team through a host of food, drinks and fun activities. One Colorkrewer brought a portable Takoyaki grill and started a makeshift Takoyaki party; Another built a Japanese and English word guessing game, and we enjoyed a few rounds of friendly competition and laughter over the games. Through the event, I was able to catch my first real glimpse of Colorkrew’s informal work culture, where we are able to speak to anyone in the company regardless of their title or designation.
