As a mixed third generation immigrant, I get this a lot. In my experience, most people want to know my ethnicity, but for some reason they never ask me that directly.

I'm not sure if that would be considered well travelled from a European perspective. For example if you live in the Netherlands, you could drive to Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg and France all within 3-5 hours. A quick Google says the average European visits 8 countries within their lifetime. Geographical proximity and culturally dissimilarity definitely need to be considered.
Thanks for sharing, did you stick with the same tutor throughout the 2 years?
I'm using wefwef (voyager) and I can't see the difference unfortunately
I unexpectedly had the opportunity to move to Japan straight after university, and so took it. Before that, Japan and learning Japanese wasn't even on my radar (I minored in German, hoping to work there actually).
I've been here for 5 years now and within the past year, I've been itching to try living somewhere else/learn new languages, but it's not so easy when I've invested so much time into Japan/Japanese.
League of Legends. I've sank so many hours into it a few years back. It's not a bad game, just highly addictive and toxic. It was only really worth playing it with friends, but now they've all moved on.
Took the N2. Considering they increased the price of the test, I was expecting a better experience, but it was still pretty chaotic and it seemed to be the proctors first time.
As for the test content, I thought the vocab and grammar was fair, but the listening was more difficult than I anticipated.
I probably failed though simply because I don't read enough in Japanese, and had to rush through that section. Hoping to change that though.
That being said, I'm not sure if I'll ever bother with the test again.
2/10. Are there any giveaways that a face is AI generated?
