How to get closer to “living Japanese”? Maybe this video will help. This first one is on how to use chopsticks. Why not try it? They say one of the best way of bringing the currents of the world around to carry you where you want to go, is to “act as if.” Live Japanese now, and who knows what doors may open for you?

Those who’ve been there–please comment on how useful/accurate you find this!–Arigato.
