The Western Woman who BECAME Japanese: Part 1
What would happen to you if you spent the next 20 years in Japan? Imagine if you stopped speaking your native language and only spoke Japanese everyday? Would you forget it? This is an experiment that is rarely done in real-life. Meet Jessica Gerrity, a TV star who speaks fluent Japanese and actively competes in Japanese archery (kyudo).
