To all customers who visited YANCAFE in 2024

This year, we had many guests from all over Japan and abroad come to Okinawa Araha Beach YANCAFE. Thank you very much.

This year, the resin wave art workshop will also start on January 1st and we are accepting reservations.

Many wonderful works were created throughout the year 2024, including Golden Week, summer vacation, and winter vacation.

The workshop started last summer, and this year we had even more visitors than last year.

We remember all of our customers who made reservations, from Hokkaido to Kyushu.

I'm meeting all the customers for the first time, but I don't feel like I'm meeting them for the first time. Is it just my imagination?

We laugh out loud together, and sometimes we are moved to tears...

There are many memorable episodes.

Many of the customers who come to YANCAFE check out our Instagram.

I'm very happy.

I am truly grateful for each and every encounter I have had with you all in your respective lives.

Even after the workshop, I'm really happy to receive messages from customers all over the country.

I was so happy to receive a message from a customer who came to us on a company trip from Hiroshima this year that it made me cry.

I will remember your words and do my best!

And from 2022, we will be collaborating with a coffee roaster in Shinsaibashi, Osaka.

This year, many customers came to visit us in search of delicious coffee.

Many of our overseas customers were from Asia and Europe, and many of them ordered single or double espresso shots. Many of them came for drinks and refills almost every day during their stay.

I'm so happy to know that you share the same appreciation for delicious coffee.

And, to our regular customers who always support us,

He is kind and warm-hearted and I am always grateful to him.

They come to have coffee almost every week, and are always so kind and considerate of my daughter and me. Thank you so much.

All of our regular customers are so unique and interesting that I would love to introduce them all one by one.

The participants ranged in age, and this year too, my Okinawan seniors told me many stories about the Okinawan war, history, Chatan Town, and the souvenirs they bring back from their trips.

I hope to laugh and talk with you all again next year.

Today, Monday, December 30th, 2024, is the last day the cafe will be open for business this year.

Thank you to everyone who came to have a last minute coffee!

Today, a local customer who came from Naha for the first time to drink coffee said,

"This extraordinary space and the music played at YANCAFE are amazing! I'll come again!"

He told me:

I think this kind of communication, where people openly talk about their feelings, is typical of Okinawa. Many people warmly greet me.

Well, tomorrow is New Year's Eve!

Tomorrow is Tuesday so we'll have a resin workshop all day!

We have received a lot of bookings for the last workshop of the year from morning to evening. Thank you.

I wonder which prefectures you will be coming from tomorrow, and I'm looking forward to meeting you.

Thank you very much for 2024.

We will do our best to bring smiles to everyone's faces and make 2025 a happy one.

This month, I suffered from frozen shoulder for the first time in my life, neck pain, and headaches, which completely ruined my health.

I realized that the human body and mind are incredibly delicate.

"If you have energy, you can do anything"

I truly felt that these words were true.

Everyone has their own issues, but health comes first!

Everyone please take care of your health and have a happy new year.
