Welcome to episode 72!
1. My Japanese Language Journey
It all started in junior high school back in Australia! In this episode, I share how my journey with the Japanese language began, the challenges I faced learning, and how it’s shaped my life. From classroom basics to real-world fluency, here’s a deep dive into my language story.
2. The NHK Guy & Getting Exempt from Fees
Have you been visited by the NHK guy? Wondering how to deal with those unexpected knocks on the door? I explain how you can legitimately get exempt from paying NHK contract fees, and share a few personal stories about my own experiences with their visits.
