Finland ranked as the happiest country in the world for the fourth year running. And one of our poetic ”wisdoms” goes: ”kell’ onni on, se onnen kätkeköön”. Basically: ”if you have happiness, hide it”. I am a happy Finn in Italy. #happiness 🤷‍♂️😁😎 worldhappiness.report

災害に遭う度に台湾と日本はお互いに寄り添って逆境を乗り越えてきました。東日本大震災が発生して9年になった今日も一緒に新型コロナウイルスに立ち向かっています。だからこそ、本日の午後2時46分、私は日本の皆さんと一緒に犠牲者のご冥福を祈り、黙祷します。 #東日本大震災から9年 #台日友好

What? A fiction title for grown-ups on #WorldKidLitWednesday? #WITMonth-worthy too?? See my review of MS. ICE SANDWICH by Mieko Kawakami, trans. @quietmoonwave17, at @GlobalLitinLibs. glli-us.org/2019/08/14/wor…

A post well worth reading. "Here is a small example of how a translated title exposes young American readers to a wider world and disrupts what may be taken for granted among US and UK Anglophone readers." #worldkidlit bit.ly/33INZFs

“to (learn to) speak fluently is like filling an empty basin with water........when the basin is full, water will spill out abundantly.” Well said. This has been my experience.
