[Blind-international-students] introduction

Fri Jul 23 19:20:49 UTC 2010

Hi, Imran,

         I studied nihongo (Japanese) both the spoken language as 
well as tenji (braille) in high school and have an interest in 
returning to Japan as a foregn language student, as I believe total 
immersion is the only way to realistically learn a language in a way 
which can be thought of as complete.
Which languages do you speak?
