Hey guys! I’m a fan of travelling and always before I leave I want to learn at least some words in the language of the country I am going to. I had a friend who is from a highly multicultural family: her mother is Japanese, her father is German and at the moment they live in Sweden because her father has a temporary job there. She love the fact that she is half Japanese or ‘Japanska’ as they say in Sweden. We are actually planning to go there next month and it will be the first time for me. I’m so excited! So I would like to get in contact with some other young people that are in the same situation as her (half Japanese) to talk about multicultural family and cultures. Thanks in advance!

HI
I have to say though... I don't have much experience with websites, but I can say that in my experience, the next best thing to talking to real Japanese was watching movies and hearing the language (which i'm sure you can do on youtube for FREE). You're not gonna understand it at first, and you have to get over that, but you ears will eventually get used to the language and your brain will start making sense of it. I don't think learning a language should cost a whole lot of cash... I think there are definitely (more effective) ways around that. When I say movies, I don't mean cartoons by the way... and now that I think about it, I'd actually place TV shows on top of movies for studying practice as the topics are usually less complicated.
I found a site very interesting for you:
Japanese lessons - Japan Activator
Have an exciting holiday with your friends
