Nieun : Travel in Nagasaki

한국어 수업을 하다보면 “여행하는 것을 좋아해요.” 라고 하시는 분들이 적지 않습니다. 학생분들의 여행 이야기를 듣다보면 저도 꼭 그 장소에 있는 것 같아 기분이 좋아지는데요. 사실, 저도 여행을 정말 좋아합니다. 이 글을 읽는 여러분들은 여행, 좋아하시나요? 오늘은 작년 11월의 이야기를 해 보려 합니다.
There are some people who say, "I like to travel". When I listen to students' travel stories, I feel like I am visiting the place with them. Actually, I really like to travel. Do you like to travel? If so, read this article. I want to talk about last November.

11월의 화창한 어느 날, 저는 나가사키행 비행기에 몸을 실었습니다. 4년 전, NHK의 드라마 <료마전> 을 보고 난 뒤 언젠가 가 보고 싶었던 곳 중 하나였던 나가사키. 
One bright day in November, I took a flight to Nagasaki. Nagasaki was one of the places I wanted to visit after seeing NHK's drama "Ryoma-den". 

“나가사키는 비가 많이 와. 내가 여행할 때엔 하루도 빠짐 없이 비가 내렸어.”
제가 나가사키에 간다 했을 때 주변 사람들 10명 중 6명 정도에게 이 소리를 들었기 때문에, 가방에 작은 우산을 하나 챙기고 갔습니다. 하지만 공항을 빠져나오자 그런 소리가 무색하게도 날씨는 너무 좋았습니다.
Before I went to Nagasaki I heard people say, "Nagasaki has a lot of rain. When I traveled, it was raining all day." So I took a small umbrella in my bag. But when I left the airport, the weather was fine.

나가사키에서 가장 하고 싶은 것, 야경 보기.
The best thing to do in Nagasaki is see the night view.

화창한 날씨와 더불어 야경은, 제가 지금까지 본 것 중에 가장 아름다웠습니다. 11월 중순, 밤은 쌀쌀했지만 그런 걸 모두 잊을 정도였습니다.
With the clear sky, the night view was the most beautiful I have ever seen. It was chilly in the middle of November, but I didn't notice it.

 그리고 그 다음 날, 글로버 정원과 데지마에 다녀왔습니다. 일본에서 가장 먼저 서양에 개방된 지역인 나가사키만의 매력을 느낄 수 있었습니다. 특히 글로버 정원에서는 일본이 아닌 다른 나라로 여행을 간 듯한 느낌을 받았습니다.
 글로버 정원과 데지마는 걸어서도 갈 수 있는 거리였기 때문에, 오전 중에 두 곳을 모두 다녀올 수 있었습니다. 시간이 남아 조금 멀리 떨어져 있는 사카모토 료마의 가메야마사중으로 향했습니다.
 And the next day, I went to Glover Garden and Dejima. I was able to feel the charm of Nagasaki, the first Japanese city opened to the west. Especially in Glover Garden, I felt like I was traveling in a different country to Japan. Glover Garden and Dejima were both within walking distance so we were able to get to both places in the morning. Then we left for Sakamoto Ryoma's Kameyama quarters a little farther away.


수업을 하다보면 “저는 길치예요.” 라고 말하는 분들이 적지 않습니다. 저 역시도 '길치' 이기 때문에, 여행을 할 때마다 길을 잃어버리곤 합니다. 이번에도 마찬가지였습니다. 산을 오르고 올라도 보이지 않는 가메야마사중. 30분 정도를 오르다 느낌이 이상해 살펴보니 주변엔 아무것도 없었습니다. 다시 산 밑으로 내려와 사람들에게 물어보니 반대방향이었습니다. 그리고 다시 20분을 올라가니 가메야마사중 기념관이 보였습니다.
I usually get lost every time I travel. It was the same this time. The Kameyama quarters can't be seen even if you climb the mountain. I climbed for about thirty minutes. When I came down the mountain again and asked some people, it was in the opposite direction. Then I went up again for twenty minutes and saw the Kameyama Fourth Memorial Hall.

혼자서 간 나가사키 여행은, 저에게 꽤 큰 인상을 남겼습니다. 일본 같으면서도 일본 같지 않은 분위기도, 길을 물어볼 때 친절하게 웃으며 대답해주던 사람들도, 그리고 3일간의 여행에서 거짓말처럼 화창했던 날씨도.
 4계절이 뚜렷한 일본에서도 이제 봄이 찾아오고 있습니다. 화창한 봄날에 여러분들도 여행 한 번 가 보는 건 어떠신가요?
On the trip to Nagasaki I went alone. It left a pretty big impression on me. The atmosphere was like Japan but not like Japan. People laughed kindly and answered when I asked for directions, and the weather was sunny for the three-day trip.

Spring is coming to Japan, with its four seasons. On a sunny day in spring, are you going on a trip?

Ervan: Être français au Japon

Il faut quitter la France et vivre à l'étranger pour réellement comprendre ce que cela signifie que d'être français. Le départ au au Japon fut pour moi une aventure, découvrir une nouvelle langue, croiser de nouveaux visages dans la rue, être confronté à de nouvelles réactions, des saveurs et des odeurs inconnues, et de nouveaux paysages, une nouvelle façon de penser, en résumé une remise en cause. Et c'était réellement très excitant, je me suis senti tellement vivant.

You have to leave France and live abroad to really understand what it means to be French. Coming to Japan was an adventure for me. It meant discovering a new language, seeing new faces on the street, being confronted with new reactions, unknown flavours and smells, new landscapes, and a new way of thinking. In summary, it was a challenge. And it was really exciting. I felt so alive.

Sans m'en rendre compte, j'allais changer petit à petit, indiciblement, pour finalement m'en rendre compte à chaque retour en France, dans le regard des autres. Là ou en apparence en un si court laps de temps rien n'avait changé, j'étais celui qui avait changé. En effet être étranger, c'est accepter d'être différent, ce qui a priori n'est pas si simple lorsqu'on arrive dans une société aussi homogène que le Japon.

Without realising it, I was changing little by little, indeterminately, only to finally notice it on each return to France in the eyes of my friends and family. Where nothing had seemingly changed in this short time, I was the one who had changed. Indeed, being a foreigner is the capacity to accept being different, which isn't so easy when one arrives in such a homogeneous country as Japan.

Arrivé au Japon à Kobe, la première chose qui me frappa fut la bienveillance apparente avec laquelle me traitait les gens.  Faire l'expérience d'être un étranger, c'est devenir plus humain à mon sens.  En fait lorsque je me présentai et que je disais que j'étais français ou que je venais de Paris, fréquemment mon interlocuteur écarquillait les yeux et me gratifiait d'un “oh mais c'est super” “vous êtes trop cool” “je vous envie” simple formule de politesse ou vrais sentiments, la vérité sûrement quelque part entre les deux, quoi qu'il en soit l'effet était pour moi des plus agréables.

When I arrived in Kobe, the first thing that struck me was the apparent benevolence with which people treated me. To experience being a foreigner is to become more human in my opinion. In fact, when I introduced myself and said that I was French or that I came from Paris, often my interlocutor opened his eyes wide and said, "Oh. That's great." or "You're so cool." or “I envy you." Whether he was simply being polite or expressing his true feelings – the truth is surely somewhere in between – it was nice to hear.

Je me suis souvent demandé si l'accueil aurait été le même si j'avais été américain, coréen, vietnamien, ou indien? A vrai dire je n'en sais rien, la personnalité de chacun joue un rôle primordial. Mais il est vrai que dans le premier abord, les apparences et la nationalité contribue à forger cette apparence, qui conditionnera la relation à l'autre.

I often wonder if the reception would have been the same if I had been American, Korean, Vietnamese or Indian? To tell the truth, I do not know if the personality of each person plays a major role. But it is true that first impressions of appearance and nationality contribute to an overall impression, which will condition the future relationship.


Donc oui lorsque l'on dit qu'on ai français on est tout de suite sur un piédestal. J'en ai fait l'expérience et souvent entouré de mes amis de multiples nationalités, je dois dire que la réaction est toujours amicale mais pas au même niveau. Force est de constater qu'il y a une échelle de prestige et de admirabilité et que la France est haut placé. Mais de la même façon, je sais que les Japonais en France, surtout à Paris, sont plutôt très bien accueillis avec la même admiration pour leur culture.

So yes, when we say that we are French, we are immediately put on a pedestal. I have often experienced it surrounded by my friends of multiple nationalities. I must say that the reaction is always friendly but not at the same level. It should be noted that there is a scale of prestige and admiration and that France is highly placed. But in the same way, I know that the Japanese in France, especially in Paris, are welcomed with the same admiration for their culture.
