When you said You got a piece of art from Gifu, I literally jumped up a little bit since it’s my hometown haha🥰 I would see your background more closely with sort of attachment from next video hehe
I think even if it’s just once a week, if it’s a good conversation, it should be good enough to maintain your English and even get a little better. I was lucky enough to have a diligent language partner and we had one conversation a week for a couple years and I think my Japanese got better. I wasn’t even studying just maybe watching some anime or RU-vid between conversations. The conversations were pretty long though usually 2+ hours.
