My tasks are basically keeping the site up and running, designing the graphics, and overall improving the site. I'm also creating the Japanese 101 course here.

I had a look around your site and I must say it's great! very professional.
I will try and participate in your forum, I'm always looking for a forum made for foreigners in Japn. (Japan today is filled with rude male gaijin .... here is great, but not many actually live in Japan....)

To nzueda:
Thanks for the kind words
I can only hope that more people will follow your example except the rude male gaijin that is of course

To Ido:
My grandfather's name was Wilhelmus, so my mum and dad decided on William for my Christian name. It came in quite handy as a lot of my American/British/Canadian/Australian friends had trouble with my given name (It's pronounced: "Ale ko", not "Eel ko"). So I quickly became known as "Bill".

My fav OST... that's a tough one. I'm a big fan of Jerry Goldsmith, but I think my overall favorite is Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan by James Horner. Very dynamic.

Introduction

Um, er... I'm not good at introducing myself. However, after an introduction and the preliminary 'getting to know' stuff, I'm quite open about myself.

The basics:

My name is Jeremy, I am a 33 year old single father who has recently returned to school to finish my education. I am working towards a technical writing degree with a minor in Nihongo. It is my goal to be able to translate from Nihongo to English.

I am here primarily to develop contacts with Nihonjin and other westerners. I am very much interested in offering myself as a contact in Portland Oregon for visitors from Japan. I can provide a safe contact for those who would like to travel to Portland.

Hajimemashite.
