Borderless House Sendai Tohoku University opened in February 2025, and it’s already buzzing with over 20 residents from around the world.

Just three months in, the house held its first community event — a compost and cooking experience. About 15 housemates from Japan, Asia, and Europe gathered to harvest veggies they’d grown and turn them into delicious meals.

Different languages and backgrounds didn’t matter. Sharing the work — and the food — brought everyone closer.

Borderless House Sendai’s First-Ever Green Project: Growing Veggies Across Cultures!

At Borderless House SENDAI-TOHOKUDAIGAKUMAE1, something unique is happening — residents are growing vegetables together using the LFC compost system. It’s the very first time any Borderless House has tried this eco-friendly project!

So, what exactly is compost? It’s natural fertilizer made from food scraps, helping plants grow strong while reducing waste.

The idea behind introducing composting here goes beyond sustainability. By turning kitchen scraps into compost and raising veggies together, housemates from different countries and cultures share a fun, hands-on experience. It’s a chance to connect in everyday life, no matter what language they speak. And it’s working beautifully.

Conversations like “Hey, it’s my turn to water the plants today!” or “I checked this morning — the leaves look bigger!” are popping up naturally among residents. Through growing veggies, they’re also growing friendships.

 Let’s harvest our veggies and make some sandwiches!

The vegetables we’ve been carefully growing every day are finally ready to eat!

At this event, we harvested vegetables grown with compost and tried something totally new: making pita bread (a favorite in Europe and the Middle East), baked potatoes, and milk soup. We cooked and enjoyed the meal together while chatting and having fun!

The veggies grown with compost were all fresh and vibrant, as if they were saying, “Please eat us!”

While picking komatsuna, radishes, and herbs, many housemates were amazed, saying things like, “I can’t believe we grew such amazing veggies from the food scraps in our own share house!”

Everyday Life at Borderless House: Discovering Small Cultural Differences While Cooking

After harvesting their homegrown veggies, the residents rolled up their sleeves for a true culinary adventure. They made fresh pita bread entirely from scratch — kneading, shaping, and baking the dough — showing serious dedication and skill.

Among the group was a French housemate who used to work as a chef in a French restaurant. Naturally, he stepped into the role of “Head Chef,” giving instructions like, “You handle this dish,” and “Try seasoning it this way.” His leadership turned the kitchen into a lively hub of laughter and teamwork, and soon everyone was affectionately calling him le chef.

During the cooking session, fun cultural surprises popped up. In Japan, it’s common to poke potatoes with chopsticks to check if they’re cooked. But the French housemate found that amusing, sharing, “In France, we’d usually test it with a knife instead!” Small moments like this spark conversations and curiosity — everyday experiences at Borderless House that keep cultural exchange alive and thriving.

It’s these little discoveries and shared laughter that make life in this international share house near Tohoku University so special. In a way, the housemates are becoming experts in global living — one recipe at a time.

Homegrown Goodness and a Warm Global Community in Sendai

By the time cooking was done, it was just past noon — perfect for lunch. Everyone gathered around the table, ready to dig into a delicious spread: freshly baked pita bread, creamy milk soup loaded with crisp komatsuna greens, baked potatoes, and vibrant salads made from veggies they’d grown themselves.

The first bite brought instant smiles. Residents were amazed, saying things like, “I can’t believe our veggies turned out this fresh and tasty!”

Sharing a meal made from scratch created an especially joyful atmosphere. Conversations flowed more than ever, with laughter and stories bouncing around the room. The event offered the perfect chance for deeper connections, and soon, the whole space was buzzing with chatter about everything from favorite recipes to cultural traditions.

Although the Sendai share house has only been open a few months, something special is already blossoming. The housemates — many still new to each other — are quickly becoming not just friends, but almost like family.

Living together, enjoying good food, and sometimes stepping into unique, unexpected events, they’re building bonds that cross borders and cultures.

Right now, residents from all over the world are embracing this vibrant Borderless House life with open hearts.
