I'm a student, currently in my year abroad. I study French and Japanese back in the UK and will be doing Japan next year. I'm really looking forward to it!
It took me a while to decide between French and German and French and Japanese. I'd done both French and German for a long time before Japanese and sometimes I worry that Japanese won't help me in the long run unless I want to live in Japan (which I might not), but I'm glad to have taken this course just simply for the experience and the friends I have made.
