yeah language is definately my priority at the moment. I am in the process of enrolling into some classes. I have holidayed in japan a few times so i am aware of language barrier. I can only assume when liaising with makers and suppliers etc that barrier can be even more overwhelming.
at this stage i am merely making enquires. growing tired of my current company and looking at future opportunities.
