yup, total immersion is the way forward. It's not enough to just move to a country that speaks the language you're trying to learn though, you need to make sure you aren't living with English speakers.
I'll warn you in advance though: you can go to the country, live there a year, immerse yourself totally and come back feeling pretty damn proud of your fluency and find an 8 year old who has become more fluent in 6 months. As we grow older our language acquisition gets slower and retains less. So prepare emmigrate and be shown up by the brilliance of children!
