And explain how you felt about it.





“I’ve always had a great interest, and fascination with  anything related to Japan, especially Japanese manga comics and movies….so, about 2 years ago I decided that I’d try to learn the language, and also made a plan to visit Japan someday. 

Although I’d picked up some Japanese words, and phrases from watching movies and cartoons over the years, I still needed to start learning the language from scratch, and was at sixes and sevens on where to start.  One of my friends who actually studied Japanese in college, recommended a youtube channel to me, which is hosted by a native Japanese teacher, and I decided to give it a shot. 

 The video lessons were wonderful, and I found that I was able to start picking up the language very quickly, from the very first lesson, with the added bonus that it was all free!  The teacher was wonderful, and really helped make learning the language a lot of fun, as well as getting me off to a flying start, and after just a few weeks,  my Japanese started to improve by leaps and bounds.

The time flew by, and after just 6 months, I was actually able to have a basic conversation in Japanese which I felt extremely happy and proud of, and actually got to visit Japan about six months ago, which was absolutely amazing, especially as I was now able to communicate with the locals….all thanks to this amazing youtube channel. 


Thank you …”

Cette semaine, c’est la chandeleur, quarante jour après noël on célèbre la fête des chandelles et de la lumière, en préparant des crêpes ! Cette fête et ses traditions sont très mélangées entre origines païennes et origines chrétiennes c’est pourquoi cette fête s’accompagne souvent de son lot de superstitions. Pourquoi fait-on des crêpes ? Tout simplement, parce que leur forme ronde et leur couleur dorée représente le soleil et sa lumière. Si quelques-uns d’entre nous se contentent juste de savourer une crêpe ce jour-là, d’autres continuent de respecter la tradition de retourner la première crêpe en la faisant sauter de la main droite en tenant une pièce dans l’autre main. La crêpe doit retomber dans la poêle et on place ensuite cette première crêpe au-dessus d’une armoire. Oui oui, tout ça est censé vous apporter richesse et prospérité ! Et quoi quel est ton pêché mignon ?
