Hiragana and festivals

Hi!

Our second meeting was a late night meeting in Subway (because it was almost only peaceful place which was open).  Kurumi taught us Japanese hiraganas. Eetu was very good at it. As I tried to write with hiragana for the first time in my life we couldn’t help laughing! But I made it to write so many hiraganas and I also learnt to write my name!

We all were very interested in different festivals in each other’s cultures so we started to talk about seasons and festivals. It was very interesting that Japanese New Year is just like our Christmas because New Year is the greatest festival in a year in Japan and it is spent with family. On the other hand, Finnish New Year is very similar to Japanese Christmas because Christmas is usually spent with friends in Japan.

I think it was very nice to study somewhere else than in a classroom or in a library. Late night studying in Subway was something totally different. 😉

With love,

Maria
