I did it 😄 I went into an Izakaya to speak Japanese

I want to share my amazing experience. I’m on a business trip to Japan in Kyoto. Today I took a train to Kusatsu, because I know English is less common there.

I went into an Izakaya late at night and for the first time of my life spoke a full evening of Japanese with strangers. It’s soo nice to finally get a reward for all the studying. I really needed this.

So to all of you who think you’re conversations skills are not there yet. I felt the same way before arriving to Japan. But after a couple of days with my colleagues and now being by myself, proves that this is incorrect.

I’m so happy! 😁 頑張って！！！
