Why is there so much of making .... that .... noise in your neighbourhood in January or February? Except to annoy you, of course. There must be more to it than that?

I thought it was something along these lines:

I suppose it's subjective as to which is worse. :P

I sometimes travel up to London with the Ole Man (it's not that far, for us) to watch the Chinese New Year celebrations ~ there's a section in Soho that's always been called Chinatown, and the Chinese people congregate there and do their thing.

It's fun to watch, very colourful and entertaining, and the Street food is good.

Not sure I'd like it quite so much if it were all going on right near my home, though!

I am beyond jealous. I've never left the US but that sounds amazing. I definitely want to travel more and that sounds like something I may put down on my bucket list. I love their culture so much. q_q

Well the USA is ginormousssss compared to tiddly little Britain, so you can be a tourist in your own country probably for years yet :) I've only managed to get over there half a dozen times, and I'm practically a fossil now; there's loads there I'd like to see but most probably never will.

I have been to China but not at their New Year. It's also such a huge country so only saw the usual tourist bits. Their trains are pretty awful.

Canada is the same way, except not as much diversity (or so I perceive the US to be a lot more diverse with all the different states and whatnot). I often forget how small other countries are in comparison.

Oh no doubt! I'll be here for awhile but I'd still love to come out and visit other countries tbh. :~)
I've only been to a few states myself and I was absolutely amazed, I can only imagine what visiting another country is like.
