      Hi,

      Thanks for the question.

      Did you mean how did I learn about Japan? Or, how did I learn Japanese? I’ll try answer both.

      My current boss gave a similar robotics workshop to the one I want to give in 2012. At the time, I didn’t know anything about robotics but over time got more interested in it. I kept in contact with him and last year he invited me to go work with him in Japan and I gladly accepted.
      And for the Japanese, I’m still learning and just by myself in my spare time. I bought a course on Udemy to start and have a few books like Genki. I get plenty of opportunities to practice here in Japan of course.

      Thanks
