Japan & Taiwan
Ian和Riana都曾在日本住過一小段時間，對他們而言日本與台灣，兩者有著非常多相似之處，但是在某些文化層面又有著很大的差異。今天他們要與你分享他們眼中的台灣與日本
Riana and I have both lived in Japan for three months. Riana lived just outside of Kobe and I lived in the countryside near Yokohama. We both had a really good time living and studying there.

Cultural Differences
你是否有來自不同國家的朋友？如果你沒有認識外國朋友，你也可以很容易從電視或其他資訊上發現每個國家的人特殊的生活習慣或思考方式。
Riana認識很多不同國籍、膚色的朋友，在與朋友相處以及旅遊時，她可以很輕易的發現到不同國家的人有他獨特的性格。
你是怎麼看外國人的？你想知道在外國人眼中，台灣人有著什麼樣的特色嗎？來看看Riana怎麼說，你也可以回應Riana你所知道的澳洲人有著什麼樣的民族特色喔！

Travelling during Holidays
During the Dragon Boat festival I went away for the weekend. I know that Ian had an interesting and busy weekend - but he's going to tell you about that later, so today I'm sharing my experiences in the Philippines with you.
The Philippines is my dream destination! It has beautiful white beaches, friendly people, plenty of delicious seafood and fruit to eat... All I did for my holiday was go swimming, eating and then to sleep! I travelled with 3 of my friends to Manila and Boracay in the Philippines , places which absolutely amazed me.

English Proverbs
東方人與西方人雖然文化有很大的差異，對於事情的思考角度也不盡相同，但是有些中國人常使用的諺語、俗語(proverb)其表達方式卻和外國人非常相似。
Ian現在要與你分享幾個他覺得非常有趣的proverb。
Since I came to Taiwan, I have always been interested in Chinese proverbs. I think they're really cool. I want to learn thousands of them and then whenever someone asks me a question, I'll answer with a proverb.
