Hey there 🫶🏼 I'm Emi, a half Japanese, half American girl from Tokyo, Japan, now living in the gorgeous country that is South Africa 🇿🇦
I started this channel to hold myself accountable for my Spanish studies, documenting my Spanish study progress for a year, and eventually reaching a B2 level.
I no longer actively study Spanish, but I'm passionate about film making, and I make content about travel, culture, and languages (and I definitely still have a huge love for everything Latin American)!
Not sure where this TH-cam thing will take me, but I'm for sure enjoying the journey-- and I'd love if you could be a part of it as well!
Sending you my love and thanks for reading this ;)

how to beat perfectionism as a creative

Here's a little train of thought video on getting out of a creative rut, writer's block, perfectionism, or maybe even procrastination whatever you may call it. It's a different type of video from what I normally do, but I hope you enjoy :) The quote is from a book called Manual of the Warrior of Light by Paulo Coelho. This video is heavily inspired by a video by Gawx. → th-cam.com/video/GoTa5ET...

Even us South Africans can't name all official languages 🤣
Recommendations based on movies/tv/youtubers speaking slow is the deep cut i needed!!!
Not going to lie.. Ashley is vibe 😂😂
I love the mugger part🤣🤣😂
Almost 15 years on, I’m still A2 in Spanish
Great video,more of this please. You would make a great travel blogger.
Watch narcos México.
Isn't this the Michel Thomas method
I never really understood people who drink amaas, just cook some uphuthu and mix that ish up and I'm mad y'all picked the strawberry Toppers instead of the choc and mint ones😂
$30 on 8 lessons is great
thank you for the tip of Andrés Spyker! It's be great listening to sermon's in spanish!
The irony. I love that i found your channel today and watched your video of you speaking Spanish and came to your channel to find this video also.
this video was exactly what i was looking for! thanks and congrats!!!!
No offense but I hate the fact that the fancy "how I learned Spanish in 1 year/6 months/3 months" videos tend to start with mentioning the importance of italki and talking based learning methods. No way to have a conversion when you start to learn any language from scratch. I would be so greatful to find one honest video about language learning finally. :I
I love that you recommended Spanish Christian speakers and worship music. I didn’t even think about that and I always listen to English Christian music. Love it!
The walk 😂😂
amazing video to watch! could you please share how long did it take to trek and the starting point?
Questions?! 1. How many hours did you study everyday during that month? 2. How did you structure your studying everyday? 3. What was the hardest part for you en the exam b2?
forget about loving the language, i love you!
@springspanish Spring Spanish - Learn Spanish with Chunks
Idk how to learn spanish bro I learned japanese and hindi by watching tv but Spanish. I seriously can’t seem to find good tv shows to watch & because they are not my taste 💀also because that’s the way I have been learning languages (I mean basically listening and understanding the words and find the repeated words and make sentences out of them) but for spanish I can’t do that. I feel like spanish hates me 😂😂😂 so I think I am going to try youtubers because this is the only way will I be able to boost my listening skills and understand the words that are being spoken.
Why does everyone bite champion😭😭
I have been to South Africa in 2002 I did not experience the loadshedding , that is probably recent in South Africa , when I was staying in Pretoria but I went to visit Cape Town , I went to Boulders beach to watch the penguins I wanted to go to Hermanus to watch the blue whales but I needed a car to go there , for Boulders beach you can go there by train from Cape Town main train station . I was in South Africa for only 2 weeks I wanted to visit the Kruger National Park the games park which as big as the state of Israel 20 000 km2 but I was short of time , there are so many things to see in South Africa I wanted to go the Kwa zulu Natal to go to a game park to watch the flamingoes no time , I also remembered going from Pretoria to Cape Town by coach and passing by Port Elizabeth your town and i have noticed a big harbour there . Living in France I can say that some South Africans has a better life than most of Europeans because I remembered from the plane when we were above the city of Johannesburg seen so many nice houses with swimming pools I could not believe I was in Africa. I had notice like in Brazil there are a great disparity between those who have and those who have not in South Africa and also the security problems when I was there I did not experience that myself but watching some reports on South African television I realized it is great problem , but I enjoyed my stay in South Africa , from all the countries that I have visited I can honestly say South Africa is my favourite . I hope to go back there one day.
I'm glad you had the foresight and courtesy to leave Christian resources to the end so those of us not interested in them could skip them. I am not Christian and I am tired of Christians constantly trying to preach to me or leaving Christian related comments to videos that have absolutely nothing to do with religion. I scanned a few comments while listening and when I saw some mentioning your Christian references I groaned, thinking "Great! More preaching in a video that has nothing to do with Christianity!" But out of consideration of non-Christians you left it at the end of the video and didn't really do any preaching (other than to advise people not to let learning Spanish interfere with their religious observances).
You said Christian and I subscribed 😂❤
The podcast "Espanolistos" is pretty good.
As a South African love this video and so true on most of them but Carmel??? Caramel Tannie😂
YOO A LIVE IN SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦
The steri-stumpies were definitely not cold.
Thank you. I came across this video just a few minutes after I tried registering for my B2. There was a glitch on the site though and my purchase was not carried out. I do feel pressured and I know that once I do the test and pass, I'll just stop. My study of Spanish now is an organic one where I feel genuinely curious and in love with the process. Thank you for that last point! I am glad you decided to say it anyway. God bless!
You are soo cute ❤ Lots of love❤ from India😎
Do not insult the BILTONG. Beef jerky is at level 0. Never ever insult the Biltong. 😊

Narcos Mexico is a really good netflix series you can watch to practice spanish!- greetings from Mexico
in my experience most of the cookies pair well with coffee its also a crime to food to say oumo rusks are bad
Visited Ishinomaki in March this year! It was such a welcome change from touring the big metropolitan cities. Took a ferry to Tashirojima (Cat island). We stayed at a small but quaint and warm hotel called Tabist Duck! The proprietors were extremely warm and welcoming!
I just want to point out that Immersive Translate is another free app that will help you learn a new language quickly. I use it every day to translate my webpages and documents, and it has been also been helpful with my language learning journey so far.
