In January 2027 I move from Schorndorf to Tokyo. The first year is set: twelve months of language school, Japanese every day, and the JLPT N3 as the goal at the end of it.

More than an exam

The exam is the measurable part. The real goal is to get to know the country, its culture and its people from the inside, and to grow with new people and new challenges.

This article grows with the move. The admin side follows once I am there.
