Name: Maylar
Coming to you from: Los Angeles, CA (United States)
First Breath: June 3rd
Reason for coming here: Found this site while looking for resources for learning Japanese.
Why Learn Japanese: There are various reasons for this. Japan is one of the bigger economic and technological powerhouses in the world, and I feel that learning Japanese will help further myself in this. Also, I want to step outside my comfy American life and see the world. Also, learning another Language is a challenge issued to myself, one that I do not plan on failing.
