How a life in Japan now? At my friend there sister lives.

You on a nationality the Japanese? Or you have roots from Russia?

How you think, what influence was rendered by the Japanese culture on Russian in the distant east?

I'm strongly interested about Ainu. Are there any Ainu native-speakers in nowadays Japan?

Wow! I'll check! Arigatou

In your opinion Russian national culture has affected on Japanese or not?

In the distant east of Russia lives 2000 persons Mordvy. Here also has taken an interest in influence of cultural traditions of the people and their mixture.At me the brother served in the distant east, therefore to me culture of China, Japan and Korea is interesting.

I think, that the culture of the Far East people has influenced on Mordvy living there.Yes. Russia the big, multinational country where each people influence the culture another. Thus also influence culture of the people and the adjacent states, including Japan. Accordingly Russian culture partly influences and on Japanese.

In Russia influence of Japan is notable in the distant east. First of all it economically and cultural-historically. Japanese very much try to develop these regions. And here Russian in Japan, for me a riddle. It would be desirable to learn, what influence is rendered by culture at you.

Too it is interesting to me. Especial influence I think Russian ethnic cuisine can bring
