As a child, I was always intrigued by different cultures around the world. I was particularly fascinated by the Asian culture as it was so much different than the western culture. Their dresses, food, wisdom stories, religion, etc. all look and sound so mystic. Over the years, I have been busy with study, job, and other things but I am now in a job where I can work remotely, so I want to closely experience the Asian culture, particularly Japanese and Korean cultures. I want to spend a few months over there. Would language be a barrier or do the people understand English? I don’t mind learning a new language but I have heard that Japanese is one of the toughest languages to learn.
