I studied Japanese language for three months form 2nd September 2003. I studied it with other trainees of different countries. As the trainees were from different countries, the class was very interesting. Because we used our own language some time.

I became disabled when I was four months old. When I was a child I wanted to play with my friends in my neighborhood, but my parents would not allow me. Life at that time was extremely boring.

We had studied Japanese for three months at Toyama Sunrise. Before coming to Japan, I knew that how to say greetings in Japanese only, so it was very difficult to learn about Japanese.
