On Dec. 10, 2017, we had "International Christmas Party in Miyako" at Flatpia Miyako. 31 people from Japan, America, Philippines, Namibia, China, England, and Ireland joined this international party.
We made traditional Christmas sweets of Germany "Mutzenmandeln", and Gluhwein (mulled wine). We tasted various Christmas sweets of foreign countries, had an acoustic live of American duo, and exchanged presents.
