I'm going to go to EU for a trip It's been a while since I wrote a topic in Italki last time. By the way,I'm going to go to EU for a trip on next February,I'm going to go to Holland at first,next to England,Portugal,Spain and Italy. Actually I want to go to NY too,but it seems to not enough time,so I have just planned a trip around EU. I heard EU's winter is very cold,is it right?? This is first time I go to EU,I have many question I want to ask you.

I wanna learn Spanish I'm planning for a trip to Spain and Portugal in a next year, so I'm going to start learning Spanish soon. My guitar teacher, is a language Freaker, He said that Spanish pronounce is easy to learn for Japanese.and Spanish is similar to Portuguese,they can understand Spanish. Is it true?! 我在计划明年去西班牙和葡萄牙旅游，所以我要开始学西班牙语。我的吉他老师，是个语言爱好者，他说西班牙语发音对日本人来说并不难，而且葡萄牙语跟西班牙语很接近，葡萄牙人也听的懂西班牙语。真的假的？

Happy new year !新年快乐！ happy new chinese year! My mother and first brother are snake,so I Have some special feel for this year. I have not ever lived in chinese,but I have passed year in chinese twice. When new year's day all japanese ordinary celebrate the new year very quietly,but chinese is not. I think Chinese style compares crazy with Japanese common sense. when I celebrate the new year in Shanghai for first time,because outside is too noisey,I almost could not sleep. I experienced national day in Malaysia too,that also is very exciting day,there are many national flag everywhere,and many fireworks,it's full of celebrating mood. Japanese traditional culture was affected by Chinese ulture,but we don't have custom celebrating the spring festival. Not only chinese but Korea,Taiwan and Vietnam they all celebrate new Chinese year,why Japanese is not?so I asked Mr.google but I didn't found any decisive answer. I long time no go to china,when I see many picture and news from Chinese friends at Weibo and Facebook,I miss that special feel that I have experienced when I was in China. Happy new year! 新年快乐！正好我的母亲和第一个弟弟是属蛇的，所以今年对我来说也有一些特别的感觉。 虽然我没有在中国生活过，但有两次在中国过年过。我们过元旦的时候一般都安安静静地祝新年，但中国不是，跟我们日本人的常识比较，简直是疯狂的祝新年，我第一次在上海过年的时候外面太吵得完全睡不着。 我还体验过马来西亚的国庆节，那也可以说是疯狂的节日，哪儿都能看见马来西亚国旗，还放烟花，充满着庆祝风气。 日本文化受到很多中国文化却没有过春节的习俗。不仅是中国，还有韩国，台湾以及越南都过春节，为什么我们日本没有呢？于是我在谷歌上查了一下却找不到明确的答案。(好像只有冲绳和鹿儿岛的一部分有过春节的习俗) 我好久没去中国了，我在微博和FB看到好多中国和台湾朋友过年的照片和信息，我就想念我在中国过年的时候体验过的那种很独特的气氛。新年快乐！！

what SNS do you usually use? 你们平时利用哪个SNS? several years ago,The most popular SNS in Japan is MIXI,but since Facebook appeared in Japan,many Japanese people started using Facebook and twitter. 我们日本人以前都用MIXI,但facebook在日本出现后，那里人越来越少，现在很多人用face book 和twitter。 I know many Chinese like to use Chinese original SNS like QQspace,Weibo and Ren-Ren. 我知道很多中国人喜欢用QQ空间，微博，人人网等中国特有的SNS（能翻墙的人也用facebook和twitter） what SNS are People who living in your country ordinary using ?what about likedin? 那你们国家用哪个SNS的人比较多？linkedin怎么样？
