“iam kara’ I don’t understand the ‘kara.’
Couldn’t you just say:”Iam doko e ikimasu ka?”

Michael D. Cassidyさん:
“今からどこへ行きますか”, I think ‘から’ here is to specify from this point on/ from now on, where you are going? It is not being translated directly in the pdf, probably because it is understood by both speakers and listeners.

Thanks, nanaka san.
I guess what I’m wondering about is whether:

“iam doko e ikimasu ka” would be acceptable?? or sounds childish.

whenever i hear about Nagoya, i think 名古屋コーチン (Nagoya kouchin). I don’t know what コーチン means though, but it’s supposed to be the chickens. from what I hear, they are famous for the meat and the eggs. they use these eggs on 新どっちの料理ショー, which still plays in california.
