Hello, I took up learning Japanese in 2018 to prepare for a trip to Japan. Now I want to go back and learn enough to become proficient in order to have entire conversations in Japanese. Language learning is a fun process, so feel free to message me if you want to practice sometime.

Something along the lines of "How's it going buddy?" might some more natural.
