Introduction

Hajimemashite! Jeimuzu Desu. I am interested in Japanese culture, music, and food!

Why are you in Syracuse (area) if you don't mind me asking?

I was born, raised, and currently reside in Syracuse.

What is your interest in Japan? (If you are Japanese, you don't have to answer this one...?)

Originally, I just wanted to learn more about other cultures. I decided to learn about Japan for a good number of reasons. Currently, I enjoy J-pop, doramas, and feel good comedies. They are rare here, and I wish cds and dvds werent so expensive.

What level of Japanese do you speak (beginner, intermediate, advance, non-speaker)

I am still somewhere between beginner and intermediate. I am also really slow... And even slower when I have to look up words.

Have you been to Japan? / Are you from Japan?

I have never been to Japan, but I hope to someday travel (and maybe even backpack) throughout Japan. For starters, I would really like to visit Nikko, Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, and Yanagawa.
