      I have FB...I surprisingly don't use it often, even when bored. I recently deleted the app off my phone because it was just taking up space. I maybe log in a handful of times a year and it's usually by accident.

      I use instagram more because I want to see pictures but now it's becoming overloaded with people taking screenshots of the notepad on their phone to share their feelings or share a damn quote that they pretend to live by. UGH! I just want to see some interesting pictures.

          I follow a bunch of Japanese photographers on instragram. Some very creative people.
          Here are a couple.

            @JaredBusch You seem to enjoy the Japanese culture. I do as well! Like you, I am also waiting for Duolingo to add Japanese to their language list.
            I'll definitely check out these photographers. Thank you!

                    Duolingo does not have it on their roadmap at all. But the other program @scottalanmiller mentioned does have it already.

                          @JaredBusch Love this!!! I just got engaged to a Japanese Hawaiian man. His family is mainly Japanese speaking so I would like to learn and understand better.

                          I believe a picture like this is in my future since his mother has been hinting at it.

                                This is too easy. I never created a Facebook profile and I don't use it.

                                  Hmm, for some reason I thought you were living on the east coast of the U.S. That explains your Italian progress on Duolingo.

                                    Well, I moved here yesterday, lol. But I've not lived on the US East Coast since 2014. I've been primarily in Europe for over two years and was briefly in the US this summer due to family medical issues and then the holidays.

                                      Yes, was working hard to have a 60 day streak under my belt before arriving. It really does help, I can essentially read everything and can understand a little of what is said.

                                          I was in Northern Italy for a week in 2012, loved it. In Rome for a week on "vacation". Home will be in southern Sicily. Taking the train down there next week. Should be an adventure. We are here all season for sure. Might be applying for residency while here. Have to talk to the consulate about options.

                                            @Breffni-Potter Believe it or not, my wife and I don't use facebook, don't have profiles either!
                                            To this date, we never considered facebook as a necessity.
                                            (I had used facebook in early 2010 for 2 or 3 months but that's all, then I stopped using it and eventually deactivated the profile)
