"For six months I've had my morning coffee in an audio room. My Spanish opened up through people, not coursebooks."
"Before my Tokyo trip I matched with Yuki using Passport. When I landed, she was waiting at the airport."
"I was too shy to speak; I rehearsed with Kaori first, then with real people. Now they can't stop me."
