Hudson discusses his passion for learning Japanese. It began when he was 6 years old and is now as strong as ever. My experience with learning Japanese began when I was 6 years old, in Year 1. I used to live in a small town called Dalyellup in Western Australia, and the school I attended taught Japanese as a primary subject. I learnt it all the way up to Year 4, before my family moved to South Australia in 2014 where Japanese wasn't offered. This meant that over time I pretty much forgot everything I had learnt besides the odd konnichiwa and sayournara.
