サマリー

アサミは最近、南フランスとノルウェーへの旅行について語ります。南フランスでは、家族との再会を兼ねてマルセイユからニースにかけての海岸線をドライブし、ニースやプロヴァンス地方の魅力的な村々を訪れました。特に、ゴッホが療養したサン=レミ=ド=プロヴァンスでは、彼の絵画に影響を与えた光の美しさを感じました。ノルウェーでは、友人の結婚式に出席するためアーレンデールを訪れ、オスロにも立ち寄りました。ノルウェーでは自然との触れ合いが重視される文化に触れ、夏至の白夜を体験しました。帰国前にはヘルシンキで12時間の乗り継ぎを利用し、一人で街を散策。サーモンスープや、偶然見つけたクリプトカフェでのアート鑑賞、美味しいイチゴなどを楽しみました。一人旅の楽しさや、計画なしでも良い経験ができることを実感した一方、家族や友人との旅もまた異なる楽しさがあることを語っています。

南フランスでの家族旅行
Hello, Asami.
So, thank you for manning the station at thepodcast front for the past couple weeks while Ihad my early summer travels.
My only, only summer holidays.
Your only summer holidays.
Yeah, too early. It's still June, but it was nice.
I was in south of France and also in Norway.
So, south of France to see my family.
So, we all flew from a bunch of other places, allcongregated in Marseille.
And then we took a road trip down basically thecoastline of south of France to Nice and back.
And along the way, we stayed at a bunch of places.We had primarily stayed in Nice and Provence.
I have to ask. Was Nice nice?
Sorry. I just, I mean, like, come on now.
For people who didn't get this joke, this very dadjoke, Nice in English is spelled N-I-C-E, which isthe same as nice.
And they sound almost the same.
I tell you what, Nice was nice.
Oh, good. Wonderful.
But there were nicer places than Nice.
Oh, okay. So, Nice doesn't quite live up to itsnamesake.
Well, I don't know. I had very, I don't know.
This whole trip, I had very little involvement inplanning.
I threw all of that on my sister.
Fair enough.
So, all I knew was that I'm going to show up inMarseille airport.
They're going to pick me up and then we go fromthere.
Yeah, fair enough. So, you were able to just dropin.
Yeah. So, there are a couple of villages that Iwas recommended by my French friends to stay or,you know, check out.
So, I had those flagged.
But the exact logistics or like, you know, what todo in Nice, etc.
I didn't plan anything largely because we had asix-month-old nephew who is a new addition to thefamily.
Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Congratulations, everyone.
He doesn't exactly care about the logistics.
He will live by his biological clocks.
So, we wanted to remain flexible, right?
That makes sense.
Turns out this baby is very easy.
He only cries when there is something wrong withhim, whether it's hungry or sleepy or changingdiapers.
Fair enough.
So, very, very easy to handle because all theother waking times he was just a jolly guy.
And it was my first time seeing him since he waslike two weeks old.
You know, he was born.
I saw him. I met him in a hospital.
I think he came back home and I was still inJapan.
But then shortly after, I moved to Hong Kong.
So, I have only seen him as this wee little thing.
And now he's still wee little, but like bigger.
This wee little laddie. He's running around thehouse.
Surprisingly, he has a very expressive agency toexpress what he wants or what he likes or doesn'tlike.
So, very easy to interpret this baby.
And I don't know if it's normal for every baby orif this one is just particularly vocal.
No idea.
Very easy baby. It was fun.
A couple of crying sessions in the car.
It was pretty hard on all the adults.
Hey, you gotta cry when you gotta cry.
Exactly.
He's a baby. Crying is his job.
So, he was just doing his job.
I would argue that he's trying to tell you all tocry more.
I think that's the job.
So, niece was nice, but not as nice as some of theother places that we stayed or visited.
Alright.
I think maybe it was a bit too early for likebeach day because it's like 18, 19 degrees.
The water on that side of the world is pretty coldstill.
And this was before the crazy heat wave hasattacked France.
So, it was still chilly for water.
Otherwise, Nice is a very sort of historicallytouristic city, town.
And it is made for tourists, basically.
Since the Brits found this corner of France thatis absolutely wonderful,
they have touristified this area.
So, it's like everything is convenient.
But also, I would say there are a lot morecharming places in south of France than Nice.
Maybe different.
If you're looking for lazing around in a beach,then maybe it's great.
Sure.
Or just enjoying the convenience while still beingin foreign land.
That's a great place.
But to me, I was like, okay, this is nice.
Can we go somewhere else?
Yeah, we've had enough of this.
Let's move on.
So, okay.
The other places that we checked out were, let'ssee if I can remember, Es.
It's one of the village.
So, it's meant to be like super scenic tinyvillage that has all the charms from back in theday.
And it is charming, extremely charming.
But also very touristified.
My friend who went there 20 years ago said thiswas amazing.
And I'm sure 20 years ago, it was so beautiful andquaint and intact.
Oh, that's an interesting word, intact.
It feels very much like they know howInstagrammable they are, kind of.
Oh, all right.
Do they have like phone spots where you can sortof rest your phone to take an Instagram shot?
Not necessarily, but they know the crowds thatthey attract are going to want to sit down andtake photo shoots.
Okay.
And it's like this tiny cobblestone staircase,right?
And it's right at the edge of the ocean.
So, it's like you get this stunning ocean viewwhile you're super high up pretty much in themountains.
Right, okay.
It's amazing, beautiful, very scenic.
But could not shake off the impression that it waskind of like a Disneyland for adults, almost.
Okay, yeah.
It was picturesque, manicured, but didn't feelreal.
And I think I'm right because I was talking to oneof the artists who had a studio there and we werechecking out his artwork.
He was telling us that people from EZ don't livein EZ anymore.
They live in a nearby village and come to work toEZ.
I was like, that's sad, you know?
Even if this is helping them economically a lot,I'm sure.
And they do rely on this tourism money.
But it's still sad that actual residents of EZdon't feel like they can live there anymore.
So, a bit of a bittersweet moment with EZ.
But we also went to Saint-Agnès.
I can't remember all the villages.
But basically, there are these tiny villagesdotted around all the coast of south of France.
And you can just drive from place to place andcheck it out.
They do get similar after some time.
But I think for us, it was new enough and foreignenough that it was very interesting and exciting.
Personally, I had way more fun in terms of thisunusualness in Provence.
So, we were in an Airbnb near this random village.
So, we situated there and then we hopped around todifferent other villages nearby.
And that was very doable with a six-month-old.
And thankfully, because my brother-in-law, he'sFrench.
So, he didn't have trouble driving around Franceon a different side of road and everything.
I can't remember. Is it the same or different?
But my dad would have had a hard time navigatingFrench signs.
So, that was helpful.
Nice.
We went to a village of Saint-Rémy.
Which is one of the villages that Van Gogh wentwhen he was kind of going cray-cray and needed asanatorium.
Nice.
He stayed in this monastery, which was...
A sanatorium?
A monastery that kind of doubled as a sanatorium,basically.
And there are many works from that time that isvery famous.
And this is where he really started painting as atherapeutic means.
He basically spent the last few years of his lifein this state of psychosis.
And having a really hard time differentiatingreality and his imagined world.
But every time he was able to connect to reality,he was painting.
That was all he wanted to do.
And he spent every waking hours painting.
And doctors enabled that because that seemed tostabilize him until another psychosis episodehappened.
So, it was really nice to see some of thesceneries that he experienced, that he wanted toinstill in the painting.
One of the things Van Gogh is known for is how hewent to...
So, he's originally from the Netherlands.
Not Amsterdam, but somewhere grey and dark.
And he went to Paris to sort of blossomartistically, but he still found Paris to be grey.
And he came to South of France in search of light.
And in search of what brings light in his eyes.
Both figuratively and metaphorically.
You really do feel that when you're there insummer in South of France.
The light there is different. It hits different.
Everything becomes so vivid.
You feel like it's just a normal thing you'relooking at.
Like trees.
Some flowers.
Just houses.
But everything is in its best lighting possible.
If I had any capacity for artistic expression in avisual way, I probably would want to paint here aswell.
You can see the appeal.
My overall conclusion for South of France is thatI get the hype.
I get the hype now.
It's beautiful.
It's relaxing.
Food is so good everywhere you go.
Real bread.
Real butter.
People will say, oh no, we don't do butter.
We're the olive oil kind of French people.
But still, real food.
And great lighting everywhere.
I really enjoy that aspect of it.
Then that was it for the family time.
ノルウェーでの友人との再会と文化体験
I went to Norway to see my friend getting married.
Her husband is from one of the towns in South ofNorway called Arendelle.
Not from Frozen.
It's called Arendelle.
Because this is the most...
It's like a sea...
Fisher town of Norway.
It's not what you associate Frozen with.
The mountains.
The snow.
That's not what Arendelle is about.
The real Arendelle.
I'm going to have to ask you what the real one is.
Because I admit I looked up Norway Arendelle.
And basically the first set of images are likeFrozen, mountainy, northern lights, harbor town.
Now I'm seeing Frozen.
Also, side note.
Sounds the same as Arendelle from Lord of theRings.
But also different.
Oh, yeah.
It's Norway still.
So you still have mountains and northern lights,I'm sure.
If you go in winter.
But from Norwegian standard, that's not enoughmountains or snows or northern lights.
You need to go to north of Norway for that.
Got it. You're too south.
And I can say this because I also met with myfriend in Oslo.
So before heading to Arendelle, I stayed a coupleof nights in Oslo.
He's my high school friend.
It was really nice to have somebody show youaround the town.
Well, not always when you're in a foreign place.
Oslo as a city though...
No?
There are probably more interesting places inNorway than this.
I mean, Norway is not necessarily known for itsvibrant city life.
It's more for their nature.
And Norwegians also think that way, too.
What I learned spending a couple of days with himis...
Being a competent individual in nature is such abig flex in Norwegian.
It's almost a requirement.
Got it.
And according to him, that's because there'snothing else entertaining in Oslo.
Or in other parts of Norway, there is nothing elseto do.
That's why you learn to ski when you're three.
Or you learn to hike really difficult mountains.
Because to ski, you need to hike.
And everyone learns how to downslope ski, how todo cross-country ski, how to do snowshoe walking.
All of these.
It's like a normal package for a Norwegianchildhood.
I'm sort of jealous.
I would do all those things.
I've only done some of those things.
That sounds like a great version of go out andtouch grass.
I think if you were born in Norway, though, andyou don't like the outdoors, you need to gosomewhere else.
There is no choice.
That makes sense.
If you don't want to be outdoors, especially inthe snow to some extent, you need to move.
You need to find joys in life beyond that.
I don't know how to ski, so I'll be such a lostcause if I ever have to live in Oslo.
This would have been the perfect chance.
Why didn't you go?
In summer? No.
Why not? You just go further north.
That's always the answer.
Just go further north. You'll find snow.
That was kind of interesting because I don'treally have any other Norwegian connection in mylife.
Other than this high school friend and this couplethat they're getting married.
Also a high school friend of mine.
The bride.
Besides that, I have no reference point enough toform a stereotype of Norwegian.
That was interesting.
It sounded like it was a goal you had.
No, the goal was to enjoy the wedding.
Not to form a stereotype.
But the wedding itself was also amazing.
Like I said, because she's my high school friend,that means I am somewhat familiar with her familytoo.
As often childhood friends are the case.
When I finished high school, she has two youngerbrothers.
One of them was 15 or 16.
The other one was 10 or 11.
Seeing them fully in adult form was very strange.
In my head, they're still wearing school uniforms.
Time jump just happened.
One of them lives in Melbourne.
The other one lives in London.
All three brothers and sisters speak in acompletely different accent of English.
Which is also very funny.
That was not the case when I left high school.
They all had a neutral international school accentlike mine.
Sophie, this is my friend who got married.
Always had a bit more British inclination.
But very weakly.
And that stayed the same.
But the two brothers.
One completely Aussie accent.
And the other one.
Super posh London accent.
It's just mind boggling.
I was already weirded out by the fact that theyboth have facial hairs.
And now they come in different accents.
What the hell?
This is like a whole makeover that happened whileI was not seeing them.
They just swapped out new people.
These were actually just totally different people.
On the other hand, they all told me that I lookthe same.
So I don't know.
Maybe they're totally different people.
You look the same.
In the meantime, they told me that I look thesame.
I look exactly the same.
And how they remember.
I was like, is that a good thing?
Or a bad thing?
I never know.
It feels like an oddly nonspecific thing to say.
I guess it depends on where they're coming from.
It was fine.
Nobody to overthink it.
You didn't come back with a crazy different accentor something.
I feel like I should have put on some Alabamaaccent or something.
That would have been funny.
It would have been really funny.
But it would have been hard to hold up for thewhole trip.
It would have been very funny.
Y'all.
Hey, y'all.
What do we got here?
It's like the least likely thing Asami would say.
There are things that would not come out of yourmouth unless it was a joke.
What else?
It also happened on the longest day of the year.
Which meant that the sun did not set.
At all.
It would get into dusk.
Sun is setting.
But you can still see the light.
At like 2am.
That's insane.
And then it just gets brighter after that.
The sun never fully disappears.
And they just get brighter after 4am.
That is so crazy.
Such a bizarre concept to me.
It still feels like dinner time at 11pm.
Because it's just nice weather outside and it'sstill sun out there.
Yeah.
I basically saw Norway in it's best lighting.
It was pretty fun.
Also got to see a few other high school friends.
That I hadn't spoken to since graduation.
Which was really fun.
And then I treated myself to a long layover inHelsinki.
ヘルシンキでの一人旅と発見
On the way back to Hong Kong.
It was a 12 hour layover in Helsinki.
If you are traveling long and far.
And if you have the right passport.
In your layover destination.
I highly recommend to see if you can tweak yourflight.
In a way that you can have a long layover.
Because basically I arrived to Helsinki at like8am.
9am.
And I didn't need to come back to the airportuntil 9pm.
Wow.
So I put my carry-ons in a storage place at theairport.
And ventured out to town.
Helsinki is relatively small and manageable.
I feel like I got to see a lot of what they haveto offer.
In 10ish hours I was roaming around.
That's a really good way to get movements in.
When you are traveling for long hours.
And it's really stressful and tiring.
When you don't move for that long.
Also I don't know when I am going to go toHelsinki.
Ever in my life.
When the opportunity presented.
It was like oh yeah.
Instead of taking this connecting flight.
I'm going to take the one that leaves 12 hourslater.
And then treating myself to a one day solo trip.
Which was really nice and much needed.
Because together with a family trip.
And my friend's wedding.
I had way too much people time in the past twoweeks.
Leading up to it.
Way too much for my liking.
Oh I understand.
Yeah.
I love them all.
But it was getting too much.
So it was much needed solo time.
To be by myself.
Roam around.
Places that I don't know.
And I am reminded yet again.
Of how good of a solo traveler I am.
Especially in a city setting.
Let me brag about this real quick.
Yeah.
Please.
Because I would like to know what you mean.
By specifically a city setting.
I have some guesses.
So first of all.
It has to be city setting.
Because.
Like how I would make a bad Norwegian.
I am not very well adept.
In wilderness.
I don't have a lot of training in that.
But I do have a lot of good training.
In city setting.
Because that's basically where I all grew up in.
So I'm like weirdly good.
At navigating public transportation.
In the city.
Or the language that I don't know of.
First of all.
So.
Amazing. That helps a lot.
In this layover.
I used airport shuttle.
Like airport trains.
To get to downtown.
And also to like tram.
That goes around the town.
And yeah.
Was no brainer.
And I'm also good at.
Finding random.
Fun things.
In the city.
That is not part of the guidebook.
Helsinki especially.
I have not used any of my planning abilities.
To plan anything.
I was just like I'm going to rock up.
And see what's there.
So I had like.
One recommendation from a friend.
Who's like must eat salmon soup.
Okay.
Oh my god.
Sorry.
I can't believe.
That this is the second time.
I have heard salmon soup.
In like a week and a half.
Not until you said that.
Did I remember.
It's meant to be.
I was literally talking to a colleague.
Who had just been discussing.
Like being within.
I think it was probably Norway.
Or maybe it was in Sweden.
Sweden probably.
Yeah.
Sweden.
Norway.
I think they all kind of have their version ofsalmon soup.
And they were like salmon soup.
And I'm like okay.
Great.
So you also found salmon soup.
Yeah.
It did live up to the hype.
My friend was like okay.
If there's one thing to do in Helsinki.
You should get salmon soup.
I was like okay.
So I got myself to.
An old market area.
Where there's a bunch of booths and stuff.
And then I got myself some soup.
Very good.
Then I wandered around the market some more.
And there's a fresh produce section.
The guys were handing out free samplers.
And they gave me one.
It was like a strawberry.
And I was like wow.
This is surprisingly good.
It was good enough to stop me in my path.
Wow.
The sales guy.
Did not miss the opportunity.
He was trying to talk me into buying pints ofthem.
So I was like.
You know what.
I just had a giant bowl of salmon soup.
I'm really full.
I'm about to walk around town.
I don't want to carry strawberries around.
What time do you close?
He was like 5 or 6.
I was like okay.
I'll come back.
That's how I escaped the situation.
Clever.
Then I went to a couple of churches.
Randomly walking around churches.
Then I went to another church.
Church number 3.
I didn't know.
I couldn't figure out how to get to the church.
From the main entrance.
For some reason.
I was circling around the block.
And found this tiny door.
That said crypt this way.
Sometimes churches come with crypts.
To store dead people.
I was like.
Maybe this will get me to the main entrance.
I turned around.
What do I find myself?
1.
This crypt never stored dead people.
They only stored woods.
For winter.
2.
It's an art gallery.
Turned into a cafe.
In this crypt.
That is only open in summer.
I think you sent a picture.
Of this to me.
I find myself.
This random.
Pop up.
It's a seasonal thing.
They only open in summer.
It's coffee.
Cakes.
Artworks.
Books from local artists.
It's crypt.
Very nice.
That's so crazy.
I was like.
Damn.
This would not have been on a guidebook.
I don't know.
I didn't know this.
The joy of stumbling upon these things.
I get to keep for myself.
Did that.
I had good food.
Good mini adventure.
Outside of what I was intentionally trying to do.
Walked some more around.
Parks.
One of the parks that I walked into.
What I thought was a park.
Was actually a cemetery.
That's always interesting.
To see.
Yeah.
It's kind of fun.
To walk into other countries.
And cultures.
Cemetery.
Yeah.
Spent some time.
Walking around there.
It was nice.
Then.
I found myself back again.
At the market area.
6pm-ish.
I walked by the strawberry people.
He was still there.
He was like.
You came back.
Of course I had to get the strawberry.
By then it was a perfect time.
To have a pint of strawberry.
I got myself.
A box.
Set myself at a park bench.
People watched.
While nibbling on.
What I think is the best strawberries I had.
Outside of Japan.
I was going to ask you.
Are you telling me.
These are better than Japan?
It's on par with Japan.
Definitively the best one.
Outside of Japan.
This guy took his time.
To pick which box to give it to me.
It wasn't just 10 seconds.
Of looking at which box.
He spent 2 minutes.
This one.
Gave me the best one.
I hope it was the best one.
That was fun.
Then.
It was.
Dinner time.
Another thing.
People recommended me.
Reindeer meat.
Where do I find.
Reindeer meat?
I googled.
They are all fancy restaurants.
I had not enough time.
For a fancy dinner.
If I wanted to get back.
To the airport in time.
You need a burger or something.
That's exactly what I did.
I found.
At that point I was hungry.
I don't want to be too far away.
From the train station.
That is going to get me to the airport.
I found a burger joint.
Had a pretty excellent burger.
Which is hard to come by in Hong Kong.
It is usually.
Very expensive to eat.
Western food in Hong Kong.
Tokyo is the same.
More than I think it should be.
Because I know the price.
Even if it is a quality burger.
I don't want to pay.
25 USD for a burger.
It can only be so good.
I stopped myself.
I got myself a burger.
Went back my merry way.
To the airport.
The ride back was smooth.
This is what I am saying.
I somehow have a really nice.
Day.
Solo traveling.
Without meticulous planning.
Of what I do.
Every hour of the day.
I stumble upon.
I usually always have.
Good food.
For some reason.
Random moments.
Where I.
Serendipitous finds.
Like that crypt cafe.
Things like that.
Not a single.
Bad tourist experience.
Like being mugged.
Or being in a scary situation.
Thankfully.
So far.
Hopefully nothing like that.
In the future.
I say this.
While I was with my family.
We are not super gourmet people.
We would just find food.
Wherever we go.
While many of them were good.
Most of the time.
There were moments.
Where we need to find.
A restaurant.
Stroller friendly area.
We would pick one.
The food is alright.
By then we were spoiled.
It is alright.
When I am traveling alone.
I never had mid food.
I always somehow.
Sense with my spidey sense.
Your solo traveler sense.
This is a good place.
It is a combination of Google.
And my ability to interpret.
Google rating system.
It is just that.
I never seem to have.
Bad food experience.
When I am traveling alone.
This is sadly not the case.
When I am traveling with other people.
I don't know why.
Other people senses.
Start acting at the same time.
There are some interference patterns.
If they don't quite line up.
You just get a mess.
I don't know.
Maybe because I need to.
Incorporate.
Their hungry level.
Their dietary preference.
Other things.
It is usually.
Why a lot of big group.
Event things are.
One bandwidth.
Of types of food.
You have a bunch of people.
That are foodies.
And will basically do just about anything.
Or you are trying to match.
A million dietary restrictions.
You end up with.
Some sort of meat.
Maybe.
Like tofu.
Something.
You kind of eat the same thing.
As you could have gotten.
Back home.
Just because it works.
Burgers aside.
I always.
I somehow find myself.
In random.
Opportunities.
Of getting food.
When I am traveling alone.
Especially in a city.
I eat at weird times.
Either because I am on my foot all the time.
I have other.
Curious things to see.
I skip lunch.
And snack on gelato.
Or something.
I frequently do these things.
Either because of that habit.
This time I snacked on strawberry.
Which was excellent.
I don't know what it is.
I always seem to find.
Random things.
In a completely unplanned way.
I want to say.
It is fun to travel with me.
Except it won't be as fun.
If there are other people.
It is fun to travel with me.
But it is way better without you.
It doesn't work when there are other people.
I get it.
旅の振り返りと今後の計画
You already described.
You had a wonderful time.
With your family and friends.
Those are their own.
Types of fun times.
I did.
There are different things.
There are multiple times.
Where it is more interesting.
To go with a bunch of people.
You can share a meal.
If you have multiple things.
You want to try on a menu.
You don't have to commit to one.
That is nice.
In other cultures.
In Korea.
In some parts of Western Europe.
Barcelona.
It is awkward to dine on your own.
They expect everything.
To come in pairs.
All of their menus.
Are set up for that.
It was not the case.
In Helsinki.
I didn't feel.
I needed to be in a group.
To enjoy a meal.
The weather worked out.
It was rainy.
When I arrived to Helsinki.
By the time I got out.
To downtown.
It was not raining.
Look at that.
Nice.
Perfect.
Maybe that solo.
Traveler energy.
It builds up.
With other people.
To influence.
Your solo traveler time.
Maybe.
It was great.
I got the best of both worlds.
See my family and friends.
Solo travel.
I am back to reality.
I have another trip.
In two weeks.
It is a conference trip.
It is not going to be.
As fun.
Possibly a different type of fun.
Not solo trip.
Still work.
Will be included.
I do have.
I have scheduled.
Enough time.
On my flight.
On the last day of the conference.
Maybe I can sneak in.
A short hike.
Around the area.
Hopefully.
That can happen.
I hope you enjoy.
My bragging.
Of these little travel trips.
We all know.
Len needs a vacation.
Of some kind.
I hope you book that.
Train or flight.
Or hotel or whatever it is.
Just book it.
Worry about planning everything else later.
There has to be something you can do.
I don't want to say it.
In the way my brain wanted to describe it.
A way to.
Plan a trip.
Where you are swept away.
Taken to somewhere random.
Yeah.
Pretty much.
But consensually.
So you have to show up somewhere else.
Other than your local vicinity.
Right.
I would like something like that.
I am debating.
I have a little one day trip.
Coming up to JAXA.
I think I mentioned that to you.
The Japanese Space Association.
That is part of the work.
No it is not.
It is intentionally.
Just to go and see.
Some of the museum exhibits.
Some friends of mine.
Both of us.
Have seen.
Dr. Stone.
It is Dr. Stone anime.
It does a lot of mixing in.
Science tidbits.
It is not even tidbits.
The whole thing is built around it.
Each plot stage.
They build up these.
Sort of maps.
Of what materials.
And innovations.
They have to design next.
To get to the next stage.
Of technological development.
Because the whole planet has been reset.
It is a very interesting.
Science in everything.
While still being a fun quirky.
Sort of anime show.
Not work.
I feel like it is still.
Intellectually too engaging.
It is intellectually engaging.
Which I am certain.
Will have its own weight.
Hopefully I will take it.
As a little bit more fun.
I really do want to disappear.
For a bit and be somewhere else.
With a book.
Maybe music.
Or way chill.
I could use a.
Your solo Helsinki moment.
Has inspired me.
Maybe I will just hop over.
To some other place.
Just literally.
Open a map of Japan.
Pick one.
And then just go.
I should do that.
If it is remote enough.
You probably don't even have to book a hotel.
You can just go.
And see what is available.
Just show up.
Be like.
What is here.
As a woman I would never do that.
As a dude.
I can bumble my way around.
I have enough Japanese.
I will probably be fine.
Just rest.
Just me a dude white guy.
In the middle of your neighborhood.
Japanese town.
I will be the talk of the town.
Anyway.
I am thrilled to hear about your vacation.
You sound like you had a wonderful time.
I did indeed.
Both throughout.
So many different places too.
Which is such a nice journey to have had.
I am very notably.
Jealous of said thing.
I really would like a vacation.
So it inspires me maybe.
Go book it.
If you are listening to this.
Also you probably need to book a vacation.
Even if you just came back from a vacation.
You probably still need to book a vacation.
So do it.
That is the best time.
Best time to plan a next vacation is right afterthe last one.
I agree.
Alright.
That is it.
Bye bye.
Feel inspired.
Bye bye.
That is it for the show today folks.
Thanks for listening.
Find us on next at EgoDeScience.
That is E-I-G-O-D-E-S-C-I-E-N-C-E
See you next time.
