Saluton. You should be asking this in the Esperanto only forum!

You should provide a translation in English with anything you post in Esperanto on the English-language forum, e.g. "I have a question for experts: why, how and where did you learn Esperanto?".

Here's a suggested correction for your question in Esperanto:

Mi havas demandon por spertuloj: kial, kiel kaj kie vi lernis Esperanton?

There's more than one way of putting it, but note that the language itself gets a capital E, and an ending -n because it is the direct object of the verb lerni.

To answer your questions:

Kial? It seemed like fun.

Kiel? From the book Teach Yourself Esperanto.

Kie? In Tokyo, actually. Faced with the difficulties of learning Japanese, I was attracted to a language I could learn easily.
