@bearfeet Thanks for the comment and example!

@DJ_Saidez Thanks for sharing the useful page! I, too, will use "get interested in"! 🤗

Do you mean my profile image? Glad you asked, thanks! My Norwegian friend, who loves Japanese anime, drew it. It doesn't resemble my real face, but I like it.😆

@DJ_Saidez I'll tell her your compliment!

I saw your profile. You speak several languages. Awesome! w(ﾟДﾟ )w
And, are you interested in studying in Osaka? May I ask what attracts you to Osaka? I was born in Osaka, so I'm just curious.(*'-^*)-☆

Thanks for telling me how you feel about Osaka! You're very knowledgeable.

I heard the viewership of a famous annual comedy show is higher in Osaka than in Tokyo. Actually, many of us grow up watching comedy shows and love to make people laugh in school and at work. We sometimes prioritize a sense of humor and friendliness over rules and formality, so some Tokyo people see us as crude and unruly.😆

We're on the same page! I, too, am the type of person who wants to go off the beaten path. Most Japanese people learning English want to go to English-speaking countries like America, Britain, or Australia, but I went to South Africa.

For your information, as you may already know, Osaka was chosen as one of the most livable cities in the world, according to the Economist.

Happy to hear you're having fun!

Glad you asked. South Africa was awesome. On the street, I saw a guy walking down showing off his gun. I'd never seen a real gun in Japan until then. Another man from Italy said, "I wanna always eat something fresh, so I don't have a fridge."

Also, all the lockers in a public pool were completely smashed, so I didn't know where I should keep my valuables. Some traffic lights near where I stayed remained defective the entire time during my stay.

At a sushi restaurant in South Africa that I went to, all the chefs were Chinese guys wearing uniforms for Japanese sushi chefs, and the waiters were all women wearing cheongsam (the Chinese formal dress / the photo I posted). At this rate, South Africans might see Japan as one of the provinces of China.

However, the people I met were nice, the nature was beautiful. The freshly squeezed guava juice was outstanding!
