Learning a new language is the key to making new friends.
I have made many good friends, because I have helped them learn English, and
they have helped me with my Japanese.
Sports is also like a language. I enjoy talking about soccer to my Japanese friends
and it is a very useful way to build friendships through our common interest.
Whatever your interests and passions are, use them to make friends and develop your friendships!
Remember to keep it simple and enjoy learning, speaking a foreign language
and making some mistakes!
