I just finished up a year and a half of Latin in college and now I'm working on French. Like most said, Spanish is probably the easiest.

Not sure if I crafted that last part correctly. I tried!

I've got more red flags than Soviet Russia!

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.

Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

I'm familiar with Qingdao, mostly because of the German influence, and the beer, right? I bet it's a cool city.

Taipei's a bit of a pit, but I got lucky with the in-laws and extra-lucky with their daughter, so I've got nothing to complain about. Though sometimes I still do.

Yeah, they still have the beer festival every year and the most famous is named after the city. Many people think that beer is made in Germany. They even sell the beer in big clear bags.

My in laws are the best. They are very good to me. Don't know how Lao Po puts up with me though.

You are now officially my xiong di.

English and French is what I speak. French is not easy to learn due to the grammatical rules but it is a great language.

Took Lao and Burmese and have forgotten almost everything. I can stumble around poorly in French.

Spanish would probably be pretty useful to learn. Though Brazillian Portugeuse would be cool. Love the music, and the beaches. They have the best beach floss ever!
