 +I believe that reading is very important in practicing Japanese especially when it comes to getting fluent with kanji. For this purpose I think that the browser extension by [[https://www.japanese.io|japanese.io]] can be extremely helpful in reading and learning kanji and vocabulary.

 Immersion is considered the best way for learning a foreign language. Learning Japanese outside of Japan propose an interesting dilemma as it can feel difficult to meet native Japanese speakers outside of Japan.

By doing so and trying to meet new people and making friends, a simulated state of language immersion becomes possible. Immersion is considered the best way for learning a foreign language.
