> Fastest learning was in going to bars and talking to people when I lived there.

Live in Japan close to 10 years. Went there speaking basically nothing, left speaking fluently.

In my experience, bars are 100% the best way to learn. If bars aren't your thing, social situations are good, but a little bit of booze has a great way of making you not care about making mistakes.
