A school fair you can experience cultures and foods from around the world I went to a school fair of the university of foreign studies in Tokyo. Students offered a lot kinds of foods depending on languages they study. I ate 6 dishes of different countries today. I wore a traditional German costume and took picture with my friends who also wore traditional costumes. It was really fun! This school fair lasts until Nov. 24. I hope I can visit again.

Korean style wedding ceremony I attended a wedding ceremony last year in South Korea. It was the first time for me to attend a Korean style wedding ceremony. A bridegroom greeted his bride's parents in Korean way. He put his hands and kneels on the floor and bowed down before them. The bride's niece and nephew sang for them during the ceremony at a church. I was glad that we could celebrate their happy day together with my friends.

Japanese foods you miss the most

Could you tell me books native English speakers usually read before becoming university students?

An interperter recommended us to read books which are familiar to high school students for studying English. She said the Bible and works of Shakespeare are one of them. Could you tell me books which are useful to get basic knowledge for communication with native English speakers?

Diary: January 21, 2019 We had guests two days in a row. We had guests two days in a row. We served potato salad both days. As an ex-boxer guest of the first day ate a lot, I made a lot of potato salad the next day. But the guest of the second day ate normal amount of it and a lot of potato salad was left. I think we will eat it several days. However, I'm glad we had wonderful time with them.

Self-introduction (2) I rewrote my self-introduction as below. The biggest reason why I changed it was to avoid messages from people who are not studying languages. Thank you for your corrections or comments in advance:) Hi everyone! I was born and raised in Japan. I like singing, music and playing soccer. I started to work as a translator over a year ago and now I'm studying interpretation. I enjoy talking with people around the world here on italki. If you are seriously looking for language partners, please feel free to contact me:) *I won't be able to reply to messages that I can't find the intention of language learning.

I met a famous person today. We had lunch at the restaurant today. Two people sat next to us and they talked about Japanese calligraphy. One of them was not a Japanese but he spoke Japanese very well. We had a conversation and I found that they are a little bit famous. I think I should have taken a picture with them.

Do multilingual have a lot of chances to get jobs? Could you tell me why you are learning a lot of languages?

I'm learning only English and Korean. I'm a little interested in multilingual. However, I need motivation to try it because I think it takes time to become a multilingual.
