Not the big milestones — the small one. The moment something stopped feeling foreign. For me it was realising I'd stopped rehearsing sentences before ordering coffee. I just said it and it came out. Took about eight months. Curious what it was for other people.

    コンビニで店員さんに話しかけられても身構えなくなった時ですね。ささいなことですが自分では大きかったです。

    Bei mir war es, als ich zum ersten Mal geträumt habe und im Traum Koreanisch gesprochen wurde.

      That last one is a real milestone, I've heard it from a few people.
