How I really got to Dublin


The Commitments - Try a Little Tenderness

After graduating from university, I had been working as a narrator, as voice-over talent and as an MC or  Master of Ceremonies speaking in front of the people who come to parties, wedding ceremonies, concerts, and so on. Sometimes I have to speak in English at some international parties or concerts. So I've been taking private English conversation lessons  for two years to improve English skills. But usually I have only been listening to my teacher's worries or troubles in his life.  I was aware that it would be more important for me to speak a lot and so that I started to search for language schools. I didn't want to speak Japanese while studying abroad. America, Canada, London, Australia: In which country were there the fewest Japanese? That would be Ireland! But this was not the only reason. I also loved the movie "The Commitments", this is my image of Dublin. My longed-for place. Guinness country! How lovely! So I decided to go to Dublin, Ireland.
