  • Lovely comment

    Hello, Michael! I’m a fan of your podcast! Listen to it on a regular base when I walk my dog or just on my way to somewhere. I really love the episode 349 about cycling in Japan. It’s amazing to listen to your experience as a tourist, a learner of Japanese and a cyclist. Most I liked is how you tried your language skills just having small talks with natives everywhere where it was possible. It remembered my own experience with learning and practicing English. Thank you for your work. Really a... more

    I’ve been playing guitar since I was 16, when I first learned to play in church. I’ve always played by chords, but now I’m 20 and I want to take it to the next level — learn to read and play by notes. My goal is to practice every day a... more
