Hello! I'm originally from Germany but have been living in the UK for the past 18 years. I want to travel to Northern Japan in 2021 for the whole summer and started learning Japanese to be able to communicate at least a little bit. I hope to find people who can help me improve my Japanese (which at the moment consists of konnichiwa and arigatou :-) ) My hobbies are rock climbing, hiking, gardening, playing piano and learning to play the treble recorder. I'm a German teacher at a college in the South of the UK and also speak English, Russian and Swedish fluently.
