I use three different keyboard layouts for the three languages I use primarily (QWERTY for English, AZERTY for French, and Kedmanee for Thai). It gets really confusing sometimes, especially between QWERTY and AZERTY. Overall, I like AZERTY's utility characters, but I've never been able to completely switch over and not use QWERTY after using it for so long. I can't even imagine how hard it would be to change your keyboard layout completely.
Overall, I make more mistakes as I keep switching between languages, and it doesn't help much that I've never learned proper touch typing. I still glance at my keyboard from time to time.

oh that makes me realize that Dvorak is potentially great for Japanese because so many Japanese characters are 1 consonant + 1 vowel, which are often a right hand -> left hand sequence since all your vowels are on the left home row in Dvorak.
