Yes, I would go bridge camera, especially if just learning. They have all the manual and semi auto modes like a DSLR, but are more compact, you don't have to carry extra lenses with you, and are less expensive. I have a Canon SX50 HS and a Panasonic FZ200...both are good cameras, the Canon has twice the reach, but the Panasonic has a better quality lens (Leica constant f:2.8) and a slightly better viewfinder (EVF). Both take great pictures.

I would not consider a D3400 because Nikon took off the sensor cleaner. D3300 better choice...and cheaper.
I agree here. The d3300 is a better camera overall and was the first entry level Nikon with collapsible lens and removal of the Low Pass AA filtering creating sharper images. APSc sensor at 24 Mp.
Easily found used OR refurbished for at $400.
D3300 collapsible zoom ... small package.... Mine was great.
Here refurbed at B&H $399 (and better than the D3400) AND $60 less in red, just like a Bridge Dandy
