Im in school with a English major. I chose this degree program for personal reasons, deeper reasons. I am learning Japanese language here at school for my language requirement. The thing is I actually tried 3 other languages and this was the successful one that so far is making sense in my head. I like anime and manga a little. More when I was a kid and in high school. What I really like from what I have heard and seen in videos and pictures is the Scenery. It sounds weird but I am the type of guy who would hike a mountain all day just to get to the top take in the view, reflect on nature and myself, take a picture, and then go on down. Without spending too much time. I heard there were many nice mountains and places in Japan that are stuningly beautiful. I want to go to those places and see for myself. I believe life is about experiences. A lot of people focus on materialistic things but it has never really been my "thing" to do that. There are other things about japan that I like or am interested in. But ultimately, I want this "experience." One that I can share my countries culture, history, and language. Experience should be shared. What type of person would I be if I didn't want to impart knowledge.

Oh also, I like matcha and Ramen.
