I've really loved this. You just broke a lot of things that I've took for granted over the Japanese work culture and even hyped me a little with the idea of trying what you've done. The main issue is that Japanese is not an easy language, though haha
You're right that it's a tough language! Language difficulty is 100% relative to your native language (learning Korean is easier for Japanese people that learning Chinese, learning German is easier than Japanese for English speakers, etc.), and Japanese doesn't seem to resemble many other languages.
My advice? Learn kanji FIRST if you're interested. I wrote another commend above about how to do it.
Thank you so much for your appreciation. I'm really glad that you enjoyed it.
I realize it's been a few years, but I made a second part to this article where I talk about my salary as a freelancer, and released the first version of an app to help learn Japanese from the materials you like!
The second version of the article is linked above. The app is learnkichi.com
Thank you for reading!
