Euro Language

Thursday, April 17th, 2008

I always dream to be articulate in all of the languages available in the world. I’m Chinese and was born in the Philippines. Culturally, I inherited most of the language one can consider useful and can easily be understood by the many. During my early age, I was able to grasp the different languages offered by our school curriculum. It ranges from Filipino, English, Mandarin, Cantonese and Fokien. I was lucky that I was able to expose myself with most of the courses available in school which makes it easier to interact with the different races in our country. However, my passion of learning doesn’t stop from there. Now that I’m all grown-up, I feel that my equity in the business I decided to venture on would greatly increase when I learn how to speak other languages aside from what I’ve been accustomed of.

Different European Languages, this is one project I aim to achieve. I consulted multiple website in the net and managed to find some interesting articles that will help my cause. I learned that Europe is segmented into 3 Indo-European languages, the Roman languages derived from the Latin language of the Roman Empire; the Germanic languages, which originated from Scandinavia; and the Slavic languages. Roman languages are often being used in the south-west of Europe as well as in Romania. Germanic languages are spoken North-west of Europe and some identified parts of Central Europe. Slavic languages are being used in Central, Eastern and Southern Europe.

After researching the roots of Europe, the scope of this language sounded very complicated. Oh well, a person is free to dream right?

Airports in Europe

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

Travelling is passion. Almost everybody I know dreams to travel around the world. I too have attempted to pursue this dream and managed to see bits and pieces of the world. I managed to go to Hong Kong, China, Japan and the Philippines but I never had an opportunity to fly to Europe. I heard so much about the history and culture of Europe and I’ll eventually consider going in one of its well-known cities once I’m financially able to do so.

Did you know that Europe approximately has 27 countries? I’m not really sure if I got my information right but as far as I know Europe has the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and United Kingdoms.

Considering its many countries, I’d like to believe that the airports in this continent are essential and critical in Europe. Elegance and sophistications are some of the definitions I can think to describe airports in Europe, facilities are also considered top-notched to provide the most convenient, comfortable and satisfying experience travelers can surely enjoy. To ensure safety and protection of its passenger, their security is also being given high importance.

Europe is one of the seven continents of the world. The thing about Europe is about its little differences. Because of the continent’s huge global influences, foreigner often finds the experience new and refreshing. The place is very well-known in its culture because of its rich in tradition and in history.

Tourist attractions in Paris, Italy, UK and Germany are none-like-the-other. These countries have most of the influential and exquisite places known to men. Nearly each square inch of the city has seeping with history and beauty. Given with its global influence, all of the attractions available are worth seeing and exploring but in order for one to really enjoy their stay in this places I took note of the most relevant place I wanted to visit if I ever had a chance to visit Paris:

1. The Louvre – this place contains the world’s largest and most diverse collection of paintings, sculpture and decorations. The famous Mona Lisa painting of Leonardo Da Vinci also resides in this museum.
2. Notre Dame Cathedral – Trip to Paris will never be complete without exploring the excellent architecture of this church. It is considered to be one of Europe’s beautiful cathedrals.
3. Eiffel Tower – The iron tower which presents Paris’ elegance. This cultural landmark already attracted millions of tourist for its fine landmark.
