4周年おめでとう

Japanese with Noriko
About this episode

🎉Learn Japanese with Noriko すばらしい4年間のお祝い!🎉


2020年2月5日、iPhoneだけを手に、洗練されたマイクロフォンもなく、ただ純粋な情熱を持ってこの旅を始めました。シーズン1の最初のエピソードは、今でも忘れられません。


最初の6ヶ月間はリスナー数が50人もいませんでした。しかし、皆さんの揺るぎないサポートが全てを変えました。寛大な寄付のおかげで、高品質のマイクロフォンにアップグレードすることができました。そして、Patreonで最初のPodcast Conversation Clubが始まり、リスナーさんが深くつながれる場所がスタートしたんです。

年月を経て、私たちは共に成長し、550以上のエピソードを制作しました。Community限定の「Extra」ポッドキャストも始まりました。

さらに2022年1月には、プレミアムコミュニティ「Japanese Together」を立ち上げ、世界中のリスナーの家族との深いつながりを育んできました。🌍

実は、私たちのコミュニティは小さいです。ポッドキャストのリスナーやフォロワーの数も少ないです。もっともっと人気のポッドキャストもあります。でも、私たちが作り上げた絆は強いです。お互いに深くつながり、インスピレーションを与え合い、モチベーションを高め合って、日本語学習を続けるユニークな空間ができました。PodcastとJapanese Togetherは私の宝物になりました。

これからも、私の使命は、ポッドキャストと私たちのコミュニティを通して、一人でがんばっている世界中の日本語学習者のコーチとなることです。そして、日本語を通して、人生を豊かにしてもらうことです。

この旅の大切な一部でいてくれて、感謝しています。これからも一緒に学び、成長していきましょう。そして、つながりを深めていきましょう!🥂

4周年、おめでとう。

みなさん、ありがとう。

Noriko

🎉 Celebrating 4 Incredible Years🎉

On February 5, 2020, I embarked on this journey with just my iPhone—no fancy microphone, just pure passion. The first episode of Season 1 remains unforgettable.

In the first six months, we had fewer than 50 listeners. However, your unwavering support changed everything. Thanks to your generous donations, I was able to upgrade to a high-quality microphone. And then, the first Podcast Conversation Club started on Patreon, creating a place where listeners could deeply connect.

Over the years, we've grown together, producing over 550 episodes. We also started the "Extra" podcast exclusively for our community.

In January 2022, we launched the premium community "Japanese Together," fostering deep connections with our global family of listeners. 🌍

Truth be told, our community is small. The number of podcast listeners and followers isn't large. There are certainly more popular podcasts out there. But the bonds we've built are strong. We've created a unique space where we connect deeply, inspire each other, and boost our motivation to continue learning Japanese. Our Podcast & Japanese Together has become my treasure.

Moving forward, my mission is to coach independent Japanese learners around the world through our podcast and community, enriching their lives through the Japanese language.

I am grateful to have you as an essential part of this journey. Let's continue to learn, grow, and deepen our connections together! 🥂

Happy 4th Anniversary.

Thank you, everyone.

Noriko
