To Sayuri Oshiro!
Hello again Sayuri!
It was nice to hear about you, hope you are well? We know little about Okinawa, more history than nowdays life, because one of Inas hobbyes is karate and kobudo and she has read from Okinawa too. So we know something about Okinawas history, but only very little (and based on karate and kobudo) and we are very keen on hearing more.
Could you tell us how is the weather there? How warm is it? How you usually spend Chirstmas? When we travel to Japan Inas dream is to come to wisit in Okinawa too.
Today was snowstorm here. It rained about 20cm snow, but it was 1 celsius warm, so not really cold. In Lapland there is about -15 celsius now and later in the winter it might get to -30. If you really want to see snow, come to visit Finland in wintertime. We would be really happy to meet you! ^^. Ina thinks think snow is beautiful, especially when it’s cold outside it’s nice to be inside and drink hot tea. ^^ Jaakko doesn’t like cold. Best place to see a lot of snow is to go to Lapland. There is flights to Rovaniemi city, which is in North Finland. But even in South Finland you can see a lot of snow sometimes.
We live in Espoo, which is near the capital Helsinki in South Finland. Normally in winter there is only -10 or -15 celsius, which is not so much by our standarts.
Take care! Waiting to hear about you soon!

From Finland to Sayuri Oshiro!
Hello Sayuri!
Nice to hear from you. We are happy to tell you anything about Finland, so please just ask whatever comes to your mind ^^.
I have to say I don't know about that tooth thing, but it might be true, because we have good dentists and little kids go yearly to schooldentist.
Are you living in Okinawa? It's not small, but it's the only place we know have little different culture than in the main Japan. ^^ Would you tell us your islands culture too? It would be nice to hear that too! Is there snow where you live? It's winter time here and the first snow rained couple of days ago. Everything is white ^^.
Hope to hear from you soon,
take care!
Ina & Jaakko

Re:Travelling in January 2007
I'm Lu in Shanghai, I suggest you to visit some small towns in Zhejiang province,e.g. Wu xie, Ling'an etc., the sights are pretty nice and good accomodation. But thre might be cold in winter of Jan. in China. Quite agree that big city like shagnhai is not ideal destination for travelling.

Travelling in January 2007
Hi. I'm planning to travel around China in early 2007. I am interested in out of the way places off the normal tourist track. I ahave been working in China and have some basic Mandarin. I'm looking for small towns with natural beauty rather than more big cities.
Ideas would be appreciated.
