Description
Hi !
My name is Lilyan and I am a student in languages, english and japanese, who also studied french litterature. I am on a working holiday visa in Japan for a whole year and I am currently in Hiroshima for over a month (until the 7 of october). My level in both langues, english and japanese, is enough to travel anywhere, especially my english, that I've been perfecting for over 10 years, if not more. As for japanese, I started learning it early but still have some difficulties speaking and understanding it at times ^^

More details about your skills
I’ve had over the years the chance to have several homestay experiences that really helped me improve my english—about six months in New Zealand, two weeks in England, and four years on and off with the same host family here in France. On the other hand, I would say that I stand between an N4 and N3 level in Japanese, whether it is for Reading, Listening, Talking or Writing. I am still of course learning both languages, but I am eager to learn and have enough bagage in order to retain and improve faster. I worked as an overseer for about 2 years, getting to watch over children of all ages, from kindergarten to high school. I also worked at the international relations welcome desk of my university for over 2 years, in Lyon, my hometown, where I got the opportunity to speak both languages.
