Daily life

Yesterday I was interviewed with Forssanlahti, since we got RYLA award certificate, although I don't know what function that certificate has in my future, I still felt this course quite good, at least provide a chance to approach Finnish local company and meet some talented people. And the day before yesterday we have lunch with RYLA club local officer, we took picture and chat a bit, quite nice time. And I asked advisory about establish a Chinese restaurant or shop is it possible in here, and how's the situation such things. One lady such a nice person suggest me go to meet her colleague ask further specific information. Then today I with my Mr.rabbit visit their office and meet that lady again coincidence. I don't have money can invest my business, also don't have too special business idea. I just want to find a chance work for myself and do some more motivation tasks. Anyway, something have positive effect to society meanwhile can push you go ahead, we just do it, no need think a lot.

This afternoon we visited an art exhibition in ToriKeskus, Mr.Rabbit and I visit there and explore local artist printings. Mr. Rabbit pick a piece of paper, that is a list of name and price of printings. We started play game, I guess all printings name. Quite interesting, there is sipuli(onion), a plenty of omena(apples) and other fruits, of course have naked lady and ballet girls. We also tasted their offered food, carrot cake and coffee. A pretty nice afternoon, hope Forssa often organize this kind of activities.

Finnish language storm

Most of time I stay in school, most of them speak English, only greeting use Finnish sometimes. I didn't recognize the importance of Finnish. After stay Finland one and half year, after I worked with Finns,met some old Finns in street ask their help, and have to listen Finnish meeting, or have lunch with elder Finnish people and stay with Finnish family. I suddenly noticed they just ignore us talk Finnish, Huomio! This is not means they are impolite,just not necessary. For instance, American people want to talk English with each other but Chinese, Paris people proud of themselves only can speak French not others,and Chinese also enjoy speak Mandarin to their Chinese friends. Finnish people either, they are naturally want to speak Finnish especially no reason let Finns speak English to their fellow. Sometimes Finns don't want to talk to you maybe because of they think they cannot speak good English, but it does not mean they don't like you, they just shy. Comparing to French and Italy people, Finnish people talk great English. This is in Finland, as a foreigner we have to learn Finnish if we really want to know more about Finland not only surface.

Approached Finns, you will noticed how their international. 

The objective of open this blog

Couple years ago, I have been write some life stories about myself in some Chinese blog, which were record my traveling experience, a little bit working experience and studying life. Finnish noodle as a new me appear and continue record my life in Europe, but different is this time I gonna use English or maybe use Finnish as well, the objective is improve my writing skills of both language.

For some reason, recently I have a strong feeling wanna become to a journalist. I hope I can interview different kinds of people in Finland and write some stories about them. I would like to listen others stories, how's their life and what are they pursue. So "Finnish noodle" will publish some real person's stories in future. 

I want to establish a free local magazine discuss about China and Finland, since these two countries need more deeply understanding each other. Bring Chinese stories to Finland and bring Finnish stories back to China, from all kinds of aspects.
