A Language Learning Story // His Journey and a Transformative Stay in Japan

Hello I'm Akari, I'm a online Japanese teacher and tour guide in Kyoto.
I've been teaching Japanese since 2013, and thanks to this job I met amazing people along the way.
Today I interviewed Akira, who took my lesson around 2020, then came to Japan and spend three month from autumn 2024 to winter 2025. 
He's learning Japanese journey is not only language learning, but it's related to his dad's family history and his future wife.

A Language Learning Story with Akira // His Journey and a Transformative Stay in Japan

In this video, I give an example to better understand present perfect tenses. 

 If you think you understood, listen to the audio again and comment below the sentence in which I used a present perfect tense at the beginning of this episode!

*Winner gets to ask for help with their problem areA and will get an answer through podcast!*

Bonus points if you can comment below another way to say the example sentence in the podcast so that it really means it has been a looooong time! 
*Advanced challenge! Good luck :)*
