#286 A 1200km Pilgrimage (Fran from Step Up Japanese)

Fran from Step Up Japanese and I discuss a few different topics in today's episode, including:

• The Shikoku 88 Pilgrimage (walking around the Japanese island of Shikoku)
• The Tadoku reading method for languages
• An embarrassing language mistake on TV
• And more!

If you're a fan of hearing casual British English conversations, and also finding out something new about language learning, then this should be a good episode for you.
