From the slightly hazed over, yet ever sparkling in the sunlight Japan Alps. . . WELCOME to JREF !! It's nice to have you with us Buddha5 san. I hope you can make it back over again.
When you were here last time, did you attend a Japanese school, or an international school, or other? How much Japanese did you acquire--a whole lot, I'd think. Where abouts did you live at when you were here?
It would be good to make some plans and take some steps to make it happen, if you're really serious. I hope it can work out for you. I may not be able to give you much help, but I will try to do what I can, and surely some other members know more about what to do than I do, so. . . hang around, enjoy the forum, and learn and share with all of us--then you may get some good information, make some friends, and enjoy it all that much more.
See you 'round !! MM
