外国人になりきってTokyo観光をしました
2011年 09月 10日

今日は、なんとなく思い立って、外国人のフリして東京観光をすることにしました。
Lonely Planetっていう、海外版「地球の歩き方」みたいな旅行ガイドブックがあって、それを見ながら東京観光をするっていうのを、前からやりたかったので。
とりあえず、上野→目黒(寄生虫館)→渋谷(交差点)→新宿(歌舞伎町)→恵比寿(お土産購入)っていう順番で回って、東京観光を満喫しました。
「Tommy」っていう僕の友達が一人で東京観光するっていう設定で始めたのですが、なぜかTwitterの途中日本語になってたり、あちこち英語がおかしい感じですが、あえて直さずにこのままさらしてしまいます。リンク先に写真がありますが、途中目黒寄生虫館でリアルにグロい写真が出るので、お気を付けください。
以下、当日のTwitter中継の模様です。

Coming here gave me a lot of thoughts. I used to study at the school not far away here.

A lot has been changed since. But certain things never change.
posted at 18:22:28
It's been an amazing trip. I've come a long way. But this isn't the end. I expect there're still more to come.

この近くで学んでたんだよ。片道二時間半の通学時間もものともせず。夢があったから、頑張れた。

あれから倍もとし食っちまったけど、本質的な部分ではビックリするほど変わってないなぁ。

面白そうな事を探しては、興味ある事にはホイホイ首を突っ込んで、なりふり構わず本気で遊ぶ、と。
posted at 18:31:28
ずっと一つの事に没頭してて、ふと気がついて顔を上げると、全く見知らぬ景色が広がっててびっくりしたり。

コツコツ積み上げてくというよりは、いつも全力で駆け上っては、転がり落ちてる気もしないけど。竿頭一歩?
posted at 18:35:19
ま、それはそれで良いでしょ。これからも、変わらず変わり続けていこっと。
posted at 18:36:24
あれ?英語どうした?Tommy's back here! って、遅いか。
posted at 18:37:39
I'm thinking about getting back to home now. Like I said, it's been an amazing trip, and hope to see more to come.
