Dr. Pal shared his 2rd version book note in English “ Is not just a Hungarian Folk Songs”. It’s so cute in either content, design or print. It makes me desire to learn Hungarian.

There’re some rain drops in the early morning, and cloudy all the day. But there’s strong wind roaring and very cold in the afternoon. This kind of weather is too weird in summer. There’s tornado happened is German yesterday, a lot of big trees are blowen down and some buildings are damaged.

Today is young Chinese Valentine’s Day because the pronunciation of the date “520” is really like “I love you” in mandarin. Then, some youngers make propose, some make wedding ceremony, some send rose flowers to lover, some transfer “red package红包“ by the number ¥520 etc. I just made chatting on video with my wife in Wechat, but our sweetheart daughter received rose flowers from somebody. This phenomenon is a kind of Chinese culture like use bat as “lucky” due to the pronunciation are quite similar.

I got the haircut in University Residence. It’s the first time do that in Hungary. And the Hungarian guy got the style what the Chinese guy like. I brought some strawberry from the stall beside the ALDI supermarket. It’s so juicy and sweet. So cute!

I felt a little cool unlike yesterday’s hot when I woke up this morning. It seemed to rain outside of the windows. After a while, sound of drops was coming. I really like rainy days, make a pot of tea and reading. There’s Chinese saying ” 风声雨声读书声声声入耳” means “the sound of wind, the sound of rain, and the sound of reading, all these sounds are going into ears”.

I explored a nice forest where there’re many kinds of birds singing cheerfully. It’s so quiet only the birdsongs. The air is so sweet. And there’s a pavilion in the deep jungle. It’s really like a Chinese style hermit’s place. I am so enjoyed.

food stand

The Debrecen Great Fair Demonstration Area is so wonderful. There’re all kinds of cloths, delicacies, daily necessities and cheerful persons. It’s crowded. But the 2 tanks shocked me the last night because there’s not any other stalls like today, after all here is so close to Ukraine, and there’s battle with Russa.  And I found the pattern again in many items what’s so similar to Chinese Pattern.

A very nice floral fragrance went into my nose and to body. How familiar is it! I looked around then found several Sophora japonica trees is blossom. How magic is it, because the tree is blossom in my hometown also in middle of the May same as here. I don’t know whether some sophora nectar is produced by the bees raised by my father or not. The homesick is coming.
