Ep56 幸せなホームステイの秘訣！何か気を遣ってたことある？

ハローみなさんこんにちは

Hello everyone, good afternoon.

カナダセンタルボートに住むゆうきと

Yuuki who lives in Canada Central Boat

サラです

I'm Sara.

このポッドキャストでは私たちのリアルなカナダ生活についてシェアしています

In this podcast, we share about our real life in Canada.

友達になったつもりで何でも質問してね

Feel free to ask me anything as if we are friends.

はい始まりました

Yes, it has begun.

はーい

Okay!

本日は

Today is

えー本日はね

Well, today...

外も寒い中

It's cold outside as well.

散歩に行ってまいりまして

I went for a walk.

お買い物にも行って

Let's go shopping too.

楽しい一日でございました

It was a fun day.

楽しかったです

It was fun.

今日は暖かかったね夜景に

It was warm today, wasn't it, with the night view?

でも夕方寒かったかな夜

But it was probably cold in the evening.

あーまあ確かに

Ah, well that's true.

日が沈んでから

After the sun has set.

ますますカナダに住みたいなという気持ちになりました

I am feeling more and more like I want to live in Canada.

今日のドックランも本当に楽しかった

Today's dog run was really fun!

ねえ

Hey.

ドックラン

Dog park

あんなに幸せな犬がいるの

There is a dog that is so happy.

はい

Yes

見てて幸せな気分だね

It makes me feel happy just watching.

ねえ本当にさ

Hey, really now.

みんな尻尾がピュって上がってさ

Everyone's tails shot up.

もうなんかもうなんていうか

Well, I don't really know how to put it...

バンザーイみたいな走り方するじゃんみんな

Everyone runs like they're saying "Banzai!"

本当に

Really.

もうピョンピョン

Already hopping.

うちにいるワンコたちだけであんなに静かに

Our dogs at home are so quiet like that.

本当に

Really.

怖い怖いになってるの

It's become scary, scary.

本当にそうです

That's really true.

そういう子たち連れてこないんだろうね

I guess they won't bring those kinds of kids.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

レスキューの子とか

Like a rescue kid or something.

最初からね

From the beginning, huh?

慣れてから連れてくる

I'll bring you once you're used to it.

でも今日のあのレスキューの子は

But that rescue kid from today...

今日レスキューなんか大体レスキューですって言ってる人たちってさ犬ちょっと言うとさ

Today, the people who say things like "It's mostly rescue" when it comes to rescue dogs just seem to...

さあ犬ちょっと言うとさ元気なかったりするじゃん

Well, sometimes when you say something to a dog, it doesn’t seem very lively, right?

もう今日の子こんなにもう唇に噛みついてきたもん元気すぎて

The child has already bitten my lips so much today, they're too energetic.

ジャンプしすぎて

Jumping too much.

トビー

Toby

本当に怖かったね

That was really scary, wasn't it?

横断の人もすごいいい人そうだったね

The person crossing the street also seemed like a really nice person.

まだ9ヶ月それあんな元気だわ

It's only been 9 months, but it's doing so well.

そうね

I see.

レスキューだったっていう記憶もないんだろうね

I guess you don't even remember that it was a rescue.

ただもう楽しい

Just having fun.

楽しい思いしかないんじゃない

I only have happy memories.

すごい良いお家にも連れていかれて良かったです

I'm glad I was taken to such a nice house.

良かったです

I'm glad.

はいっていうことで

So, in that case,

もうね大体ねなんか

Well, you know, basically...

この話とまた飛ぶけど

This may jump back to an earlier topic, but...

スポティファイのなんか

Something on Spotify.

スポティファイっていうかこのポッドキャストの分析とか見てると

When I look at the analysis of this podcast on Spotify...

大体最初の60秒でみんなきれいにいなくなってくる

Basically, everyone starts to disappear neatly within the first 60 seconds.

この雑談の間にもういなくなってくる

In the midst of this chit-chat, I'm already starting to disappear.

しない方がいい説ある

There is a theory that it's better not to do it.

うん確かに

Yeah, that's true.

もうすぐ入るんだよね

It's almost time to go in, right?

今回の話題は

This time's topic is

私たちは2年弱住んでいるというわけですけど

We have been living here for almost two years.

人と継続してね

Continue with people.

家族

Family

家族以外に人と住んでいるというわけなんですけれども

It means that I live with someone other than my family.

まあなんかなぜ喧嘩が起きなかったのか

Well, I wonder why a fight didn't break out.

とか

"etc."

なんかうちらはまだいいじゃん

Well, we're still okay, aren't we?

同い年ぐらいでほぼ同い年で

We're about the same age, nearly the same age.

もう年上ですけれども

Although I am older now,

それ以外にさ

Besides that, you know...

お家を貸してくれてる人とかがいるわけじゃん

There are people who are lending their homes, you know.

ホストファミリーしてくれる人とか

People who will be host families.

そういう人たちと気をつけていることなどなど

Things to be careful about when dealing with such people, and so on.

正直本音を知らないからね

Honestly, I don't know the true feelings.

ホストファミリーたちの

Of the host families

みんななんか

Everyone, something.

結構何も言ってこないじゃん基本的に

Basically, you don't really say much, do you?

優しいじゃん

You're kind.

なんかあなたたちは本当に良かったみたいなこと言ってくれてるけど

It seems like you guys are saying really nice things, but...

正直分かんないよね

Honestly, I don't really understand.

迷惑かけてたかもしれない

I might have been a nuisance.

怖いんだけど

I'm scared.

でもまあ

Well then,

気をつけてたことね

Be careful about what you're doing.

じゃあまずその

Well, first of all, that...

うちら以外のことで考える

Think about things other than us.

ホストファミリーに対して気をつけてたこととか

Things to be careful about with the host family.

ここはちょっと例外なんですけど

This is a bit of an exception.

今住んでいるお家は

The house I am currently living in is

うん

Yeah.

髪の毛を落とさないようにした

I made sure not to lose any hair.

洗面所に

In the washroom.

本当にそう

That's really true.

今はまだ気にしてないけど

I'm not worried about it yet.

申し訳ないけど

I'm sorry, but...

いや本当にそう

Yeah, that's really true.

髪の毛とか細かいところを気をつけるようにした

I've started to pay more attention to details like my hair.

特に髪の毛

Especially hair.

特に髪の毛本当に

Especially the hair, really.

でうちでもモジャン時計にいた時は

When I was at the Mojan clock,

気にしてたよ

I was worried about it.

お風呂場とかお風呂が終わったらすぐやるし

I do it right after taking a bath or when I'm in the bathroom.

髪の毛乾かしたとかもやるけど

I do things like drying my hair too.

一番気をつけてたのは

What I was most careful about

デビーの家

Debbie's house

だって黒い髪の毛が落ちてたら100%うちらじゃん

If there are black hairs, it’s definitely us.

そう本当に

Yes, really.

しかも綺麗すぎて目立つじゃん

Moreover, it stands out because it's too beautiful.

オーナーが金髪だったね

The owner had blonde hair, didn't he?

で家が大体白っぽい色だった

So the house was mostly a whitish color.

本当に一本落ちてるだけで目立つ

It's really noticeable with just one falling out.

めっちゃ金目立つ

The money stands out a lot.

本当にだからデビーがさ

"Really, that's why Debbie..."

旅行とかで1ヶ月家開けてますとか

"I'm away from home for a month due to traveling."

なったら本当に家汚くなるじゃん

If it happens, the house will really get dirty.

それでもう帰ってくる前にすぐに

"Even so, before coming back right away."

やばいやばいって片付ける

It's a mess, I'll clean it up!

髪の毛の量えぐいよ黒い髪の毛

The amount of hair is insane, black hair.

本当にあれはすごかったね

That was really amazing.

やばかったね

That was crazy.

あの時は結構本当に気を使っていたが

At that time, I was really quite considerate.

私は普通に冷蔵庫や保管庫で物を腐らせていたし

I was normally letting things rot in the refrigerator and storage.

あとそうじゃんお風呂場

Oh right, the bathroom.

お風呂場がさ

The bathroom, you know.

日本って大体カップがあるというかさ

In Japan, there are generally cups available, you know?

髪の毛が引っかかる部分があるじゃん

There are parts where my hair gets caught, right?

で取り出せるじゃん

You can take it out, right?

あそこも全部落ちていくやつで

That one over there is also something that will all fall down.

最終的に詰まったんだよね

In the end, I got stuck.

うちらの髪の毛が抜けすぎて

Our hair is falling out too much.

最終的につまり

Ultimately, in other words.

私サラフス流してたこと言って

I was streaming Sarafus.

ダメよダメよ

No, no.

私はちゃんと手を溶かして取れたやつは捨ててます

I properly dispose of the ones that have melted and come off.

偉いよ

You're great.

それでもすごい落ちてると思うけど

I still think it's really low, though.

途中から集めるようにはしてました

I was trying to gather it from the middle.

詰まって溶かすやつを

The one that gets clogged and melts.

放置したら溶けるみたいなやつを何度もやりましたね

It seems like I did that thing where it melts if you leave it alone multiple times.

液体を入れて

Please pour in the liquid.

あれ結構効くけど

That works pretty well, though.

もともとあそこが流れ悪いのかもと思う時もある

There are times when I think that the flow there has always been poor.

そんなに髪の毛落ちないように気をつけてても

Even if I'm careful not to lose so much hair,

溶かすやつやってからすぐまた

I do it again right after melting it.

詰まるってとこはね

The part where it gets stuck, you know.

溶けてないじゃない

It's not melted, is it?

だって最初の頃絶対詰まってなかったじゃん

Well, at the beginning, it definitely wasn't stuck.

うちらが来た時

When we arrived.

ということでした

That's what it was.

髪の毛問題は結構

The hair problem is quite significant.

サラパーマした後もめっちゃ髪の毛

Even after getting a perm, my hair is really great.

ちゃったりしたから

Because I ended up doing (it).

切れたりしてんだろうね

It must be getting cut off or something.

髪の毛はどうしても落ちちゃうんですよね

Hair tends to fall out, no matter what.

頭皮問題もあるもので

I also have scalp issues.

頭皮ね

It's the scalp.

やっぱり環境の違いで

After all, it's due to the difference in the environment.

頭皮が荒れちゃったんだよね

My scalp has become rough.

家まで髪の毛が抜けるんです

I end up losing hair all the way home.

元々抜けやすいけどな

It's originally easy to fall out, though.

本当にサラもともとめっちゃ抜ける

Sarai has always been really careless.

抜けない時期と抜ける時期がある

There are times when it doesn't fall out and times when it does.

犬みたいな

Like a dog

生え変わり時期みたいな

It feels like a period of shedding and regrowth.

季節によって抜ける

It varies depending on the season.

でも髪の毛が

But my hair...

結構髪の毛が一番気をつけてたことかも

I might have been most careful about my hair.

うちらが借りてたスペースあるじゃん

There's that space we rented.

モノウキみたいな

Like a mono-uki.

あそこは多分髪の毛ヤバかったと思う

I think my hair was probably a mess over there.

ヤバかったと思う?

Do you think it was insane?

掃除もできないほどの狭さだった

It was so small that I couldn't even clean.

しようとも思えない狭さ

A narrowness that makes me not even want to try.

ベッドの下とか全然してないもん

I haven't done it at all under the bed.

本当にしてない

I really didn't do it.

最後の最後に一回やってくれて

Do it one last time at the very end.

でもあそこ空気めっちゃ悪かった

But the air there was really bad.

まあそりゃそうだよね

Well, that's true.

二人が本当に狭い

The two of them are really close together.

あれ何畳?

What size is that in tatami mats?

2畳?

2 tatami mats?

2畳よりはあるよ

It's more than 2 tatami mats.

4畳

4 tatami mats

4畳ぐらいじゃない?

Isn't it about 4 tatami mats?

4畳もあった?

Was it as big as 4 tatami mats?

だって二段ベッドが入ってんだよ

Because there's a bunk bed in there.

3畳ぐらいな気がしちゃうんだけど

It feels like it's about three tatami mats in size.

本当に二段ベッドを置いてもう扉閉まらないからカーテンしてる

I put a bunk bed in, and now the door can't close, so I have a curtain.

多分ダブルのツインのマットレスがぴったり入るくらいじゃない?

Maybe it would fit just right for a double twin mattress, wouldn't it?

マットレスにしようっていう話だったじゃん

We were talking about getting a mattress, right?

なぜか二段ベッドになった

For some reason, it became a bunk bed.

っていうね

That's what I'm saying.

マットレスだったらまた何か変わってたかもね

If it were a mattress, things might have been different.

まあね

Well, you know.

どんな感じだったんだろうね

I wonder what it was like.

まあ上手くいってたか上手くいってないか

Well, whether it went well or not.

結局さ同じベッドで1ヶ月

After all, it's been a month in the same bed.

合計多分1ヶ月は絶対寝てた

I probably slept for a total of about a month.

寝てた寝てた

I was sleeping, I was sleeping.

全然大丈夫だった

It was totally fine.

全然大丈夫だった?

Were you totally okay?

全然大丈夫だった

It was completely fine.

私がコロナになったから結局

Because I ended up getting COVID.

そうだね別れたね

Yeah, we broke up.

懐かしい

Nostalgic.

でも二段ベッドも別れていないんで

But the bunk beds aren't separated either.

はい戻るよ話

Yes, let's go back to talking.

はい

Yes.

ということで

So, that's it.

髪の毛には気を付けていた

I was paying attention to my hair.

料理する時間とか

Time to cook and such.

そうだね

That's right.

オーナーがやっぱ

The owner is indeed...

家によるくない?

Isn't it dependent on the house?

一番最初の家からいこうよ

Let's go from the very first house.

一番最初の家は別に何も気ぃ使ってないんだよ

The very first house doesn't really have anything to be considerate about.

一番気ぃ使ってないかな

I probably don't care the most.

部屋があったからちゃんと

Since there was a room, properly.

一人一部屋ちゃんとあって

Everyone has their own room properly.

結構自由な家族だったし

We were quite a free-spirited family.

ただまあ夜ご飯

Well, dinner.

夜ご飯家で食べるようにしてた?

Have you been having dinner at home?

うんしてたかな

I wonder if I was doing it.

とか

"Etc."

なんかあんまり夜遅いと女の子だからっていうので迎えに来てくれるみたいな

It seems that since I'm a girl, someone comes to pick me up when it's too late at night.

うん

Yeah.

言ってくれてたから逆にそれを意識してっていうか申し訳ないし

Because you mentioned it, I feel sorry that I have to be conscious of that instead.

申し訳ないから早く帰ってた

I hurried home because I felt sorry.

とか朝は一緒に出たりとかね

Like going out together in the morning, for example.

うん

Yeah.

でもそれ

But that

さらにそれが気を使って家に入るかって言ったら入らないかも

Moreover, if it takes care to enter the house, it may not enter.

あー

Ah—

最低限人の家に住む

At the very least, live in someone's house.

でも多分やらない人やらないじゃんだって

But probably, people who won't do it just won't do it, right?

気ぃ使わない人は

People who don't consider others.

まあでも

Well, but...

それぐらいは普通にできるレベルだったから

That was a level I could easily do.

うんうん

Yes, yes.

普通に考えてやることって感じだよね

It feels like something you would normally think to do.

いい人すぎて困らせたくなかった

I didn't want to trouble such a good person.

うん

Yeah.

あとなんだろうな

I wonder what else there is.

まあでもその家でも髪の毛は気にしてたし

Well, even in that house, I was still concerned about my hair.

シャワー入る時間とかも気にしたことは

I haven't really thought about the time for taking a shower.

うちだからあそこの頃からよ

It's because it's our place; it's been like this since then.

最初なんかカナダに行く前に

Before I went to Canada at first

なんかカナダはそんなに水が日本ほど

Canada doesn't have as much water as Japan does.

なんか豊富じゃない

It feels lacking somehow.

うん

Yeah.

豊富じゃないわけじゃないか

It's not that there isn't plenty.

でもなんかもう

But somehow, already...

ホームステイをする上でのなんかルールを

Rules for doing a homestay.

ルールじゃないけどで

It's not a rule, but...

10分以内みたいな

Like within 10 minutes.

そうよくなんかこうシャワーを10分以内にしてくださいとか

"Please take a shower in 10 minutes or less."

あとはまあなんかその方がいいでしょうみたいな

Well, I guess that seems better or something.

うん

Yeah.

感じのやつを読んでから言ってたから

I was saying that after reading the one that had the vibe.

うん

Yeah.

もう早く終わらせようと思って

I thought I should finish this quickly.

その時からシャワーをめっちゃ短くするようにしたのよ

Since then, I started taking really short showers.

えらいね

That's impressive.

短くしたっていうかもう

I mean, I’ve already shortened it.

もう必要最低限

Just the bare minimum is necessary now.

うん

Yeah.

もうバーって洗うみたいな

It's like just washing it all off.

うん

Yeah.

もうそれが癖になっちゃって今めっちゃ早くなっちゃったんだよ

It's already become a habit, and now I've gotten really fast at it.

えらいわ

That's impressive.

言われない限り隅々で綺麗に洗ってる

I'm cleaning everything neatly in every corner unless told otherwise.

笑

Smile.

てかもう寒すぎて

It's just too cold now.

あー

Ah-

それなんか体温上がんなくなったんだよねこっち来て

Since coming here, my body temperature hasn't gone up at all.

筋肉も落ちてるしお風呂にも入んないから

My muscles are deteriorating and I haven't been taking baths either.

あーなるほどね

Ah, I see.

ちょっとでも

Just a little.

疲らないからね

Because it doesn't get tiring.

てかもうさら逆にめっちゃ熱いお湯で入るようになったかもこっちで

Actually, I've started to take really hot baths instead over here.

あーでもわかるシャワーは熱々がいいよね

Ah, but I understand, a hot shower is nice, isn't it?

めっちゃ熱くした

I made it really hot.

うん

Yeah.

でもさものたけのシャワーめっちゃ好きだったんだよね

But I really loved Momotake's shower.

そうなんだ

I see.

すっごい使いやすかったなんか下がさタイルってさ

It was really easy to use, somehow like a tile that you can lower.

そうじゃっけ

Is that so?

もう本当にそれシャワーしかない部屋だったじゃん

It really was a room with just a shower, wasn't it?

うんうん

Yeah, yeah.

もうバスタブもないみたいな

It seems like there is no bathtub anymore.

うん

Yeah.

あれがめっちゃ好きだったさ

I really loved that.

うーんそうなんだ

Hmm, I see.

うん

Yeah.

ローリン家のさ下の階とかもさ

The lower floor of the Rawlin family, or something like that.

うん

Yeah.

シャワールーム

Shower room

うん

Yeah.

四角いじゃんあれもめっちゃ好き

I really like that square one too.

四角い方が

The square one.

ちょっと狭い感じ

It feels a little cramped.

うん安心する

Yeah, it makes me feel at ease.

あーまあ確かにね

Ah, well, that's true.

うん

Yeah.

ほんとそれぐらいかも気づかってさ

It might really be just about that much consideration.

うんほんとそれぐらいだな

Yeah, that's about it.

なんかさ

You know, like...

夜も遅くまで起きてたし

I stayed up late at night.

シャンプー

Shampoo

シャンプーとかさその体洗う物とか水物系全部さこう入れれるコンテナ用意してくれたじゃん

You prepared a container where we can put all the shampoo and body wash and similar liquid items, right?

うんうん

Uh-huh.

あれの水が腐りそうだった

The water in that one was about to rot.

それは気づいた

I noticed that.

水数に溜まって

Gathering in the water count

あ下に水が溜まって

Water has pooled below.

うんあの

Um, well...

へー

Oh really?

トレイの中に

In the tray.

うわそうなんだ

Wow, is that so?

うん

Yeah.

それだけは気をつけた方がいいかも

It might be better to be careful about that.

いやあそういうことそれあそれごとお風呂に持って行ってた

Oh, I see. I was taking that whole thing into the bath.

うん

Yeah.

あじゃなくて

Not that.

水切ってたんだけど

I was draining the water.

うん

Yeah.

ちょっとずつ溜まってた

It had been accumulating bit by bit.

溜まってた

I've been accumulating.

あーなるほどね

Ah, I see.

うん

Yeah.

まあ汚くしないように

Well, let's try not to make it dirty.

うん

Yeah.

ぐらいじゃない

Not that much.

うん

Yeah.

ハマった髪の毛は捨てるとかね

You should throw away hair that gets stuck.

うん

Yeah.

で2軒目のそのデヴィのお家がまあ髪の毛が一番気にしたと

At the second house, Debi's place, I was most concerned about her hair.

とってつもなくきれい

Incredibly beautiful.

うん

Yeah.

料理した後にてかさなんかいいんだよいいんだよ全然汚しても大丈夫なのみたいなこと言ってるけどさちょっとでも汚れてるとさデヴィが掃除し始めるじゃん

After cooking, they say it's okay to make a mess, but when it's even a little dirty, Devi starts cleaning up.

うん

Yeah.

もうそれがもう気まずかった

It was already awkward.

うん

Yeah.

気まずかった

It was awkward.

てかサラなんかはさご飯炊いたらさ下にジュワって漏れるじゃん水が

By the way, when Sarah cooks rice, water tends to leak out at the bottom, right?

うん

Sure

それで下のこの下にアルミが敷いてあるんだけどそれが焦げてすぐ帰るようにしてた

So, I had aluminum foil laid out below this, but it got burnt, so I was trying to leave quickly.

あすぐ帰ってた

I will return tomorrow.

うん

Yeah.

あー

Ah-

まあそりゃ焦げるよね

Well, it would definitely burn.

うん

Yeah.

きれいにするようにしてたね洗い物はできるだけ早く洗うとかさ

You’ve been making an effort to keep things clean, like washing the dishes as quickly as possible.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

溜めないようにするとかあと食べ物はなんかその匂いがあまり充満しないものとかさ

To avoid accumulating things, it’s also about choosing food that doesn’t have a strong scent, you know?

うん

Yeah.

は考えてたかな

I was thinking about it, I wonder.

さっき納豆ちゃん作ったときマジでピンチだった本当に怖かった

I was really in a pinch when I made natto earlier; it was truly scary.

もう納豆

Already natto.

全部窓開けた

I opened all the windows.

うん

Yeah.

窓が片方しかないからね

Because there is only one window.

そうかね

Is that so?

換気がしづらかった

It was difficult to ventilate.

うん

Yeah.

あとはもともとそのお家はね

The house was originally like that, you know.

まあもともとそのオーナーが早く寝る人だったから夜は静かにするようにしたり

Well, the owner was originally someone who went to bed early, so I made sure to keep things quiet at night.

うん

Yeah.

まあ基本的にだからそのもともと住んでいる人の生活にお邪魔するっていう形だからさ

Well, basically, it's about interfering with the lives of the people who originally live there.

うん

Yeah.

どこにいても

No matter where you are.

うん

Yeah.

そのもともと住んでいる人たちの生活を壊さないようにっていうのが一番のところかな

I think the main point is to not disrupt the lives of the people who originally lived there.

うん本当にそう

Yeah, it's really true.

もう何酔わさないもそうだし寝る時間とかもそうだし

It's not just about getting drunk anymore; it's also about the time to sleep, things like that.

うん

Yeah.

あとまあ起きている間もさあんまり邪魔をしないようにというか

Well, I also mean to not disturb too much while I'm awake.

うん

Sure.

特にあの家はね

Especially that house.

うん

Yeah.

本当に一部屋しかないから

Because there is really only one room.

うん

Yeah.

静かにしてってやってたね

You were telling me to be quiet, weren't you?

うん

Yeah.

でも別にそんなにストレスは溜まらなかった

But I didn't really feel that stressed.

うん

Yeah.

なんか気にしなきゃ気にしなきゃってほどでもなかったかな

It wasn't something I had to worry about too much, I guess.

うん

Yeah.

まあ普通に暮らしてたら別に大丈夫

Well, if you just live normally, it's not a big deal.

うん

Yeah.

まあでもでかい声では喋れない

Well, I can't speak in a loud voice.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

だからこそこそ喋ってる

That's why I'm talking quietly.

だめだね

That's no good.

でも家にいないことも結構多かったじゃん

But you weren't home quite often, right?

うん

Yeah.

だからストレス溜まんなかったのもあるかも

So maybe that's why I didn't feel stressed.

うん

Yeah.

でもそこは最後褒めてくれたよねめっちゃね

But in the end, you really praised me there, didn't you?

あなたたち本当にちゃんとしてくれたみたいな

It seems like you really did well, didn't you?

ほんと

Really.

嘘だけど

It's a lie, but...

言うてない?

Did you not say it?

ほんと

Really.

そういうようなことをこう

Things like that...

そっかテキストできそうなこと

I see, it seems like something you can do with text.

なんか言ってたじゃんなんかそんな

You were saying something, right? Like something like that.

なんか

Something.

私の生活を

My life

ああ

Ah.

邪魔しないようにしてくれたりとかみたいな

Like keeping out of the way and such.

本当に綺麗に静かにあなたたちいないのかと思ったみたいな

I thought it was really beautiful and quiet without you all here.

本当に

Really.

あなたたちいるのにいないように暮らしてたみたいな

It feels like I've been living as if you are here, but also not here.

いやでもね見てないところでいろんなものが腐っていたんだけど

Well, you know, a lot of things were rotting in places where I wasn't looking.

知らぬまねに

Without knowing.

今も腐ってたし

It was still rotten.

うん

Yeah.

でも本当にでも夜は電話しないとかさ

But really, don't call at night or anything.

うん

Yeah.

そういう感じくらいだった気をつけて

I feel like it was something like that, so be careful.

そうね

That's right.

シャワー入らないとかね

Like not taking a shower, you know?

うん

Yeah.

夜中に

In the middle of the night

うん

Yeah.

基本朝とか

Basically in the morning or...

あとはえー煮物にする夜は

"Then, for dinner, I'll make a stew."

今なら静かにできる

Now I can do it quietly.

煮れるもの

Things that can be boiled.

うん

Yeah.

音が鳴らないもの

Soundless things

そうね

That's right.

でも別に

But it's okay.

そんなもんかな

Is that how it is?

ダルルルみたいななんかもう死ぬよあんま暮らさないわっていうことではない

It's not like I'm saying I'm going to die from something like Darururu, so I can't really live like that.

うん

Yeah.

そんなこと

Such a thing.

まあまあまあ静かに

Well, well, well, be quiet.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

やればいいかなぐらい

I guess it would be good to try it.

うん

Yeah.

まああまり物をね出しすぎないとか汚しすぎないとかさ

Well, it's about not putting out too many things or making a mess too much.

というかもうサラの物が増えかえりすぎてデヴィが片付けられるっていうことがありました

In other words, Sara's belongings have increased so much that there was a time when Devi could not clean up.

そういうこともあります

That happens sometimes.

すみませんでした

I’m sorry.

なんだろでもそんなもんかなあそこのうち

I wonder if that's just how things are at that house.

うん

Yeah.

そう考えたらそんなに

When I think about it that way, it's not that much.

そんなに別に苦ではない

It's not really a burden at all.

うん

Yeah.

かなあ

I wonder.

まあなんか洗剤とかさトイレットペーパーとかもどの家も全部用意してくれてたじゃん

Well, I mean, every house had things like detergent and toilet paper all prepared, right?

うん

Yeah.

ありがたいこと言うね

You say some nice things.

うん本当にありがと

Yeah, thank you so much.

うちら車がないからねああいうの買いに行くの大変じゃん荷物大きくなるし

We don't have a car, so it's tough to go buy things like that since the load gets bigger.

そういうのを用意してくれるの本当に金銭面的にもそこが含まれてるとはいえども

I'm really grateful that you prepare those things for me, even though it involves financial considerations.

うん

Yeah.

自分たちで買って暮らしてるよりかは多分

It's probably better than living by buying things ourselves.

全然

Not at all.

うん

Yeah.

ブロック

Block

そこに関してはなんか節約節約とかあんまり使わないとかあんまり気にしてなかったかも

I might not have been very concerned about saving money or not using things too much in that regard.

普通に使っちゃってました

I was using it normally.

うん

Yeah.

使ってました

I was using it.

うん

Yeah.

暗いかな

Is it dark?

暗いだね

It's dark, isn't it?

うん

Yeah.

この家に関しては

Regarding this house.

本当にあの申し訳ないくらい気にしてた

I was really worried about it to the point of feeling sorry.

なんか気使ってることあるかな逆に

Is there anything I'm being considerate about, in a way?

うん

Yeah.

お外にゴミを捨てに行くときは見守るとか

When going out to throw away the trash, watch over them or something.

見守る

To watch over.

あきこさんがこけないように見守る

Watching over Akiko to ensure she doesn't fall.

見守る

To watch over.

ちょっとお手伝いしようかなと思っているくらい

I was just thinking about helping out a bit.

だってお手伝いするよって言ってもいやいいよ

Even if I say I'll help you, you say no, that's okay.

もう不安が募るだけだからって言われるんだよね

"It's just said that it only makes me more anxious."

うんうん

Yeah, yeah.

うん

Yeah.

それもなんか難しいところじゃないここはまだなんかさ

It's still a bit of a difficult situation here, isn't it?

うん

Yeah.

こう話がしやすいけど特に一番最初とかなんかさ

It's easy to talk like this, but especially at the very beginning or something.

うん

Yeah.

なんかどこまで踏み込んでいいのかっていうかさ

It's like, I'm not sure how far I should go into this.

わかる

I understand.

なんか皿洗いとかもやらないでいいよって感じだったじゃん

It felt like you didn't even have to do the dishes or anything like that.

うん

Yeah.

料理とかももう私がやるって感じだったし

It felt like I was the one doing all the cooking and things like that.

うん

Yeah.

もうほぼほぼうちら冷蔵庫なんかノータッチだったじゃん

We haven't really touched the refrigerator at all.

ノータッチだったね開けなかった

I had no touch; I couldn't open it.

うんアイスクリーム食べていいよとかさ

Yeah, you can have ice cream.

うん

Yeah.

なんか食べたいものだったら食べていいよだけど

If there's something you want to eat, you can go ahead and eat it.

うん

Yeah.

そんな基本開けることないじゃんご飯出してくれるから

You don't really need to open it since they serve you food.

なるほどねうん

I see, yeah.

アイスも出してくれるし

They also serve ice cream.

外に置いてあるなんかお茶とかさ

Like some tea that's left outside.

うんうんうん

Uh-huh.

外に置いてあってチョコケーキとかだけ食べてたから

I was just eating things like chocolate cake that were left outside.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

もうそれで十分だったんだよ正直

Honestly, that was already enough.

そうお腹がいっぱいだったもん常にあの時

I was always so full at that time.

だから冷蔵庫開けて食べたいと思ってた

That's why I was thinking of opening the fridge and eating.

思わなかった

I didn't think so.

でなんか難しくないなんかそのもともとのやり方があるわけじゃん

Well, it's not that difficult; there is a basic way of doing it, right?

うん

Yeah.

皿洗いとかもそうだし食器をどこに戻すとかさ

It's the same with washing dishes and where to put the tableware back.

うん

Yeah.

なんかゴミ捨てのやり方とか

Something about how to dispose of garbage.

うん

Yeah.

なんかわかんないけどいろいろ生活ってやっぱりその過程ごとであるじゃん

I don't really know why, but life is definitely something that happens along the way, isn't it?

はいはいはい

Yes, yes, yes.

そこまで入り込んでいいのかわからないときない?

Isn't there a time when you're unsure if it's okay to get that involved?

わかるそれはちょっとわかる

I understand, I can kind of relate to that.

なんか手伝いたいんだけど手伝ったことで逆になんかこう

I want to help, but I'm worried that my help might end up causing more trouble.

ねえ仕事を増やすかもみたいな

Hey, it seems like I might have to take on more work.

そう

Yes.

まあさらにこう不安が募るっていうのは多分別の意味だと思うんだけど

Well, I think that having even more anxiety probably means something different.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

何かをやらかすだろうみたいな

It seems like something is going to go wrong.

やらかしますよ結局ね

In the end, I'll end up causing trouble.

うん

Yeah.

それは結構ホストファミリーとかってなってくると気にするというか逆に違う意味で

In that case, when it comes to host families, it makes you kind of concerned, or rather, it takes on a different meaning altogether.

うんうんうん

Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.

どこまでやっていいんだろうと思うんだよ

I wonder how far I can go.

うん

Yeah.

だからもうやんなくていいよって言われたらもう一切やってない

So if you say that I don't have to do it anymore, then I won't do it at all.

うん

Yeah.

そっちの方がいいんだろうなと思う

I think that would be better.

うんそう

Yes, exactly.

やって欲しいときに言ってくれると思うし

I think you would tell me when you want me to do it.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

って信じてる

"I believe that."

うん信じてるそれを疑い始めたらもう人間不信になるからさ

Yeah, I believe in it. Once you start doubting that, you'll become distrustful of people.

本当にそう

That's really true.

頼まれたことはちゃんとやる

I will properly do what I'm asked to do.

うん

Yeah.

うんうんうん

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

まあそう

Well, that's true.

うん

Yeah.

本当にそれぐらい

Really about that much.

じゃあもう楽しく

Well then, let’s have fun!

はい

Yes

本当に

Really.

たまに掃除機をかけてみるとか

Sometimes try vacuuming, for example.

家の散歩に行くとか

Going for a walk in the neighborhood.

でもそれ気を使ってるわけじゃなくて

But it's not that I'm being considerate.

いやじゃない

I don't mind.

ただやりたくてやってる

I'm just doing it because I want to.

行かなくていいのよごめんねって言われるけど

"I'm told it's fine not to go, I'm sorry."

行きたいから

Because I want to go.

そういうことないんだ

That's not the case.

そうなんだよな

I see.

気を使ってるわけじゃないんだよな

It's not that I'm being considerate.

気を使いたいんだけど何かに対して

I want to be considerate, but towards what?

うーん

Hmm.

ないんだよなマジで

It really doesn't exist, you know.

そうなんだよな

I see, that's right.

正直言っちゃうと自分の家よりも気使ってないかもしれない

To be honest, I might be more relaxed here than in my own home.

そう、ばあちゃん家よりもお母さんの家よりも気を使ってた

Yeah, I was more considerate than at grandma's house or my mom's house.

そういうお家を見つけられるかもしれないですよ、みなさん

You might be able to find such a house, everyone.

やばいよ、ほんとに

This is insane, really.

ほんとに

Really.

ほんとにやばいよね、ほんとに申し訳ないです、あの、ほんとにお世辞になりそう

It's really bad, I'm really sorry. Well, it might really sound like a compliment.

洗濯とかやるよって言うじゃん

You say you'll do the laundry and stuff, right?

そしたら一回やったのよ

So then, I did it once.

これは乾燥機にかけて欲しくなかったなーって言われたし

I was told that they didn't want it to be put in the dryer.

その次に洗濯したときはウモブトンが破裂するっていう事件もあったので

The next time I did laundry, there was an incident where the comforter burst.

ありましたね

It was there, wasn't it?

もうやめました

I already quit.

手を出さない

Don't get involved.

手を出さないことにしました

I decided not to get involved.

だから毎回あきこさんが洗濯するときは同時にこう同行して

So every time Akiko does the laundry, I accompany her at the same time.

横から

From the side.

ただ見てるだけ

Just watching.

横から応援するってことにしました

I decided to support from the sidelines.

それが一番

That's the best.

もちろん猫のウンチはたまに取るし

Of course, I occasionally clean the cat's litter.

うん、えらえら

Yeah, you're awesome.

たまにね、ほんとに

Sometimes, really.

臭いなと思うんだけど

I think it smells.

あとおーちゃんがなんか訴えてくれて

Also, O-chan is somehow making a complaint.

怒るときだけやっています

I only do it when I'm angry.

うんこしたいんだけどって

I want to poop, you know.

ほんとそれぐらいですね

That's really about it.

本当に正直本当に申し訳ないです

I truly, honestly apologize.

本当に申し訳ない

I am really sorry.

本当に

Really.

ただ重い物とかは率先して持ちたいなと思って

I want to take the initiative to carry heavy things.

持ちたいなと思って

I want to have it.

重たい物はね

Heavy things, you know?

おじさんが寝てるからさね日中

Because the uncle is sleeping during the day.

仕事で

At work

寝るのが仕事っていうわけじゃなくて

It's not that sleeping is my job.

夜働いてるから

Because I work at night.

だからそういう分

So that's how it is.

力仕事とか

Manual labor, etc.

ジャムとか

Jam and so on.

ふたを開けてあげる

I'll open the lid for you.

そういうところは率先してやってる

I'm taking the initiative in those areas.

小学生

Elementary school student

だってほんとにそれぐらいしかやることない

Because honestly, there's really nothing else to do.

あーおかしい

Ah, that's funny.

ほんとにそれぐらいしかない

That's really about all there is.

あとはたまにコーヒーを作ってあげるとか

Sometimes I'll make coffee for you.

うん

Yeah.

食べ物とかもさうちらが作っても

Even if we make food and stuff,

あきこさん食べれないこと多いじゃん

Aki-san often can't eat, right?

結局

After all

結局卵焼きとかしか分けてあげないから

In the end, I only share things like omelets.

野菜を切るとかね

Like cutting vegetables.

野菜を切ることもあんまりさせてもらえない

I’m not really allowed to cut vegetables either.

いいよって

Sure!

ほんと卵焼きぐらいしか任されてないんじゃない今まで

I really haven't been entrusted with much beyond making omelets, have I?

卵焼きの薄焼きを作ってお菓子をくれる

They make thin omelets and give me sweets.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

それぐらい

About that much.

めっちゃ大きくない

Isn't it really big?

お菓子作りはまあ勝手にやってるっていう感じで

Making sweets is more like something I do on my own.

そうだね

That's right.

うん

Yeah.

やばいな

This is bad.

それぐらいしかやってないですよね

That's about all I've done, right?

はい

Yes

ほんとにね

Really, you know?

ないんだもん

It's because I don't have it.

だって何やってほしいか分かんない

I just don't know what you want me to do.

雪かきは

Snow shoveling is

みんなで一緒に

Together with everyone

全身全霊手伝ったサラは

Sara, who helped with all her heart and soul,

手伝いましたね

You helped, didn't you?

はい

Yes

怒られました今日

I got scolded today.

2回ほど

About twice.

3回ぐらいかな

Maybe about three times.

サラちゃん

Sara-chan

綺麗にしすぎて怒られるっていう

Being scolded for making things too neat.

怒られる

To be scolded.

だってもうねやることなかったの

Because, well, I just had nothing else to do.

シャブルもさ

"Even Shaburu..."

吐くしかない

I have no choice but to vomit.

吐くもあったけどさ

There were times I felt like throwing up, though.

サラは人の笑いを取るぐらいでいいかな

Sara is okay with just making people laugh.

そう幸せにしてくれる

It makes me so happy.

ただその分労力2倍になるっていう

It's just that the effort will double as a result.

労力2倍楽しさ2倍で

Twice the effort, twice the fun.

という感じですね

That's the feeling, right?

うん

Yeah.

という感じですね

It feels like that, doesn't it?

もうほんのりりんごからね

It's already subtly apple-like.

りんごの木から実を落とすとき

When dropping fruit from the apple tree.

ああそうじゃん

Oh, that's right.

危険な場合は私が一番危険な場所に行って遊ぶ

If it's dangerous, I'll go play in the most dangerous place.

揺らしてましたね

You were shaking it, weren't you?

でも怒られましたね

But I got scolded, didn't I?

最初のときはやってなさくなかったですよね

You weren't doing it the first time, were you?

遊んでたもんね

We were playing, right?

楽しくなっちゃうんだよな

It gets really fun, you know.

うん

Yeah.

楽しくなっちゃうね

It becomes fun, doesn’t it?

鳥の餌を巻いてきてと言われても怒られる

Even if I'm told to bring bird feed, I'll still get scolded.

なんで

Why?

地面にいっぱい落ちてたからさ

Because it was all over the ground.

鳥地面からも食べるんだと思って

I thought they also eat from the ground.

地面に巻いたの

I rolled it on the ground.

一応あきこさんが見てないか確認してやったら見てた

Just to confirm if Akiko-san wasn't watching, I checked, and she was.

窓から

From the window

窓がさこう影になってるじゃん

The window is casting some shadows, isn’t it?

ちょっと離れると見えない

If you step back a little, you can't see it.

見えないか

Can't you see?

だからこうやって見て

So, when you look at it this way...

こうやってやったら

If you do it this way,

見えない

I can't see it.

あきこさんまずに張り付いて怒ってた

Akiko was stuck to me first, angry.

いやだってだからあんなに釣ってたんだ

I didn't want to, but that's why I was fishing so much.

なんかやけに釣ってるなあと思ってた

I thought it was strange how much you were fishing.

私です

It's me.

そういうことか

I see how it is.

木箱の中のさこっち側の鳥の餌箱もあれもお皿に入れずに床に置いてる

The bird feeder on this side of the wooden box is also placed on the floor without being put into a dish.

お皿にも入れてるけどね

I'm putting it on a plate too, you know.

結局食べるでしょ

In the end, you'll eat it, right?

食べるよねそう思ってる

I think you will eat.

あれこれいろいろありますね 本当に本当に

There are all sorts of things, aren't there? Truly, truly.

たまにうんち拾うなんかもやったりしちゃってる 趣味というか

Sometimes I pick up poop, it's more like a hobby or something.

その程度の気持ちで

With that kind of feeling.

ちょうどその程度の気持ち 本当に気を使ってないっていうことですよね

It's just about that level of feeling, which means that you really don't care.

普通に感じるしかございません 電気は消すとか

I can only feel normally, like turning off the lights.

電気はちゃんと消すとか

Make sure to turn off the electricity properly.

とかぐらい 本当に

"Really, just about that."

本当に何もしてない でもサラ部屋汚すぎておじさんにもうちょっと部屋の片付けに時間を使ってくださいって

I really haven't done anything, but Sara's room is so messy that I asked the uncle to please spend a little more time cleaning it up.

言われた? ごめんなさいって

Did you say it? I'm sorry.

マジ? なんかあの

Really? Well, you know...

あのなんだっけな 電気がさ壊れた時あったじゃん一時期

What was it again? There was a time when the electricity went out, right?

電気の配線を変えてたじゃんおじさん一時期 あーうんうん

You were changing the electrical wiring, weren't you, uncle? Ah, yeah, yeah.

あの時サラの部屋に入ってて

I was in Sara's room at that time.

なんかあの配線を変えるからみたいな感じで屋根を開けてたのよ

It seemed like they were opening the roof because they were going to change the wiring or something.

へーあそうなんだ その時期が一番部屋が汚かった時期だよ

Oh really? That was the time when the room was the messiest.

きれいにしてください きれいにしてくださいって言われた

I was told to clean up.

ごめんなさい 切実

I'm sorry, it's serious.

きれい好きじゃんやっぱりあなたに そうね

You really do like cleanliness, don't you? That's right.

ありえないと思ったんじゃない? これはなんだ

Didn't you think it was impossible? What is this?

Take your little time to clean up your whole room, please.

Please take a little time to clean up your entire room.

Please

Please

切実だ ちゃんと片付けた

It's urgent. I cleaned up properly.

えらいえらいえらい でも今また散らかってるけど

Great, great, great! But it's a mess again now.

いつも今も散らかってる 本当に

It's always messy even now. Really.

あの部屋はねプライバシーがないからね正直

That room honestly has no privacy.

ずっと開けてなきゃいけないっていう約束のもと借りてるから

I borrowed it on the condition that I have to keep it open all the time.

えっそうなの? 王ちゃんがさ

Oh, really? Regarding Ou-chan...

あー裏側の方はね 逆通るじゃんそこ人が

Ah, on the back side, people pass through there in the opposite direction, right?

そうねうん確かに プライバシーゼロですね プライバシーゼロもう別に気にならないんですけど

Yeah, that's true. There's zero privacy. I don't really care about having zero privacy anymore, though.

って言うぐらいそうね っていうぐらい品

I mean, it’s to that extent, I suppose. It’s that kind of quality.

1個でした 外出るとそういうふうに見えるんだろうなと思う

It was just one. I guess that's how it looks when you go outside.

孫たちなのかなみたいな

I wonder if they're my grandchildren or something.

きっとね親戚なんだろうなだってよくなんかさ日本人の人たちにも言われない なんかえあきこさんのお孫さん?

"I'm sure they're probably relatives, because I've often been told by Japanese people, 'Is that Akiko's grandchild?'"

ご親戚?みたいな あきこさんのお孫さんまだ2歳です

Is this a relative? Akiko's grandchild is still 2 years old.

2歳です!金髪です 今日なんかもあきこさんに言い間違えだろうけど

I'm 2 years old! I have blonde hair. Today, I might have said something wrong to Akiko-san.

子供なんだからみたいな 子供だと思われてますもん

"Because I'm a child, I'm seen as a child."

違いますよ でもそれぐらい旗から見たらあきこさんに対する対応が

That's not it, but from that perspective, the way you’re responding to Akiko-san...

親戚、孫か子供のような対応してるだろうね

You're probably treating them like relatives, like a grandchild or a child.

それはあきこさんのせいだと思うよ

I think it's Akiko's fault.

なんか

Something.

そこまで壁を作ってこないするよと すごいと思う本当に

I really think it's amazing how you haven't built up walls to that extent.

たださこっちは遊びに来たじゃん 初日っていうか会った時は敬語だったのよまだ

Well, I came here to hang out, and on the first day—or rather, when we first met, we were still using formal language.

前回その敬語で終わってるから LINEとかも全部敬語と英語でやってて

Since we ended with honorifics last time, I’ve been using honorifics in all my LINE messages and in English too.

で会いました その日の夜にはもうタメ口になる

I met them, and by that night, we were already speaking informally.

早いな 多分うちもそうじゃない?最初たぶん最初敬語でやってたけどその日の夜か次の日ぐらいに

That's fast. Maybe it's similar for us? At first, I probably used honorifics, but that night or the next day...

タメ口になってくる 多分うちもそうじゃない?最初たぶん最初敬語でやってたけどその日の夜か次の日ぐらいにタメ口になってくる

They start using casual language. Maybe it's the same for me, right? At first, I think we were using polite language, but by that night or the next day, they switch to casual speech.

うん 多分うちもそうじゃない?最初たぶん最初敬語でやってたけどその日の夜か次の日ぐらいにタメ口になってくる

Yeah, maybe it's the same for us? At first, we probably spoke politely, but then by that night or the next day, we started talking casually.

いやーちょっとやばいぞ もうちょっと威厳をね すごい人なんだからさ

Wow, this is a bit serious. You need to have a bit more dignity; you're an incredible person after all.

もっと尊厳を見せてもいいと思う 本当だよね ビシビシで新しい舐めだって言ってくれた

I think it’s okay to show more dignity. It’s true, right? You told me it’s a new experience with intensity.

本当に威厳によって違うね うん

It really depends on the dignity, doesn't it?

まあでも一番本当に幸せかもしれない今が 本当にそう本当に一番幸せ

Well, maybe this moment when I'm truly the happiest might actually be the happiest one.

うん 本当に一番幸せ

Yes, I'm really the happiest.

本当に幸せ

Truly happy.

ホームステイやばいみたいな うん

Homestay seems crazy, like, yeah.

当たり外れやばいみたいな言ってたけどマジで当たりしか引いてないっていうか

I heard people saying that the odds are crazy, but honestly, I've only been getting lucky draws.

そう 本当にそう

Yes, that's really true.

全員の家が幸せだった

Everyone's home was happy.

今まで3軒この2年弱の中で

I have been to three places in the past nearly two years.

住んできたけど

I've been living (here).

全部大当たり

All big hits.

全部大当たりだった

It was all a big hit.

うん 本当に大当たり

Yeah, it's really a big hit.

本当にいい人たちだった

They were really good people.

どれも後悔するような話はないし

There are no stories that I regret.

だって今でも繋がってるし

Because we are still connected even now.

うん なんならまた戻りたいと思うし

Yeah, I actually want to go back again.

うん

Yeah.

うん 全然

Yeah, not at all.

すごいですね

That's amazing!

本当にすごい

Really amazing.

本当にありがとうございます

Thank you very much.

本当に

Really.

もうなんか人に恵まれていた2年間だったっていうか

I feel like the past two years have been filled with lucky encounters with people.

うん

Yeah.

まぁサラの人生全て人に恵まれてるんだけど

Well, Sara's entire life has been blessed by people.

うん

Yeah.

この2年間それが顕著に現れたなっていう感じでした

I felt that it became particularly evident over the past two years.

本当に人に恵まれた

I've truly been blessed with wonderful people.

本当に悪い人1人ぐらいしか当たってない

I've only really encountered about one truly bad person.

うん

Yeah.

1人ぐらい

Around one person.

サラの友達

Sara's friend

そっかそっかそっか

I see, I see, I see.

うん

Yeah.

うちもそうだね1人ぐらい

It's the same for us; about one person.

うん

Yeah.

本当になんか

Really something.

本当に

Really.

結局良すぎない?って思わせてくるぐらい

Isn't it just too good in the end?

出会った人たちが本当にいい人ばっかり

The people I've met are all really nice.

うん本当に

Yeah, really.

もしかしたらうちらの勘違いかもしれないけど

It might be our misunderstanding, but...

そうそうそう

That's right, that's right, that's right.

出会った人が良すぎて

The people I've met are just too wonderful.

うちらの人脈がこう

This is our network.

すごい良い人たちしかいない

There are only really nice people.

たまになんかうんっていう人もいるけど

Sometimes there are people who say "uh."

うんいるけど

Yeah, but.

だいたいそういうのって日本人なんだよね

That's usually something Japanese people do, right?

あー

Ah—

サラ

Sara

うんって思う人に会うときはだいたい日本人

When I meet someone who thinks "uh-huh," they are usually Japanese.

日本人

Japanese person

なんかすごい

That's amazing.

確かに

Certainly.

うん

Yeah.

何とは言わない

I won't say what it is.

いやだけど

I don't want to.

確かに

Certainly.

うん

Yeah.

それは言えてる気がする

I feel like that's true.

本当に本当にそう

That's really, really true.

で良い人と良い

It's good and good people.

何

What?

もうサラの実体験だと

It's Sara's real experience now.

うん

Yeah.

もうそのすごい日本人が1人いてサラにずっと永遠に話しかけてくれる

There is already an amazing Japanese person who will keep talking to Sara forever.

うん

Yeah.

でサラがもう1人のすごい優しい日本人の方に途中なんだけど

But Sara is with another really kind Japanese person halfway through.

助けてっていう質問送っても気づいてくれないみたいな

It's like sending a question for help, but it seems they don't notice it.

なんかそういうなんか本当に両極端な人が多い

There are really a lot of people who are extremely polar opposite.

そうだね

That's right.

のほほんとしてふわふわして良い人が多くて

There are many easygoing and fluffy people, and it's nice.

うん

Yeah.

逆にもうキリッとしてるけどそういうとこまで言うんだみたいな

On the contrary, it's all serious, but it's surprising that you would say something like that.

うん

Yeah.

そうだね

That's right.

人の差が激しい気がする

I feel that there is a significant gap between people.

うん

Yeah.

だから本当になんかまさに

So it's really something exactly like that.

何だろう何て言うの

I wonder what to say.

世界の何て言うの本当に海外にいる日本人みたいな

What do you call it in the world, really like a Japanese person living abroad?

うん

Yeah.

みんなが想像みんなが想像してるのとかどういう人か分かんないけど

I don't know what kind of person everyone is imagining, but...

なんかちょっと結構気強めな女の人を想像しない

I can't help but imagine a woman with a pretty strong personality.

うん

Yeah.

女の人で海外にいる人って考えたら

When I think about a woman who is overseas.

なんかもうまさにそういう人たち

Those are exactly the kinds of people.

やっぱりいる

I knew it, they're here.

うん

Yeah.

でもそれ思ったより日本人日本人してる日本人が多いんだなと思った

But I thought there were more Japanese people being typically Japanese than I expected.

あー確かに

Ah, that's true.

なんかふわふわしてて

It's a bit fluffy.

うん

Yeah.

こうなんかあいいよ大丈夫だよみたいな感じで

It's like, "It's okay, you know, in a cute way."

うん

Yeah.

同い年もそうなんかあんまり海外に来てそうな人じゃないなって思う人が多かった

I felt that many people my age didn't seem like they would come abroad much.

うん

Yeah.

特に見た目とかね

Especially in terms of appearance, you know.

うん普通に日本で普通に学校にいそうなタイプの

Yeah, they're the type you'd typically find in a regular school in Japan.

だからそれがカナダの特徴な気がする

I feel like that's a characteristic of Canada.

多分そうだと思う

I think so too.

なんかアメリカとか行ったら多分違うんだろうなと思う

I think it would probably be different if I went to places like America.

アメリカに行ってる子たちって

The kids who are in America.

なんか友達もそうだし

It's kind of like that with my friends too.

こうよくねSNS中とかで見る子たちもそうだけど

It's the same as those kids you often see on social media.

ギラギラ

Gleaming/Glittering

なんかねカナダにいる子たちと全く違うんだよ

It's just that they're completely different from the kids in Canada.

ね

Hey.

なんかカナダ自然派って感じする

It feels somehow natural, like Canada.

うん本当に自然派って感じがする

Yeah, it really feels natural.

イギリスとか行っても違うんだろうなと思う

I think it would be different if I went to places like England.

違う

Different.

イギリスアメリカちょっとギラギラしてそうな感じ

It feels like the UK and the US are a bit glittery.

うんうん

Uh-huh.

違うそう

That's not it.

オーストラリアもキラキラしてそうだけど

It seems like Australia is sparkling too.

どちらかと言うとオーストラリアニュージーはカナダに寄ってそうな感じがする

If I were to say, it feels like Australia and New Zealand lean more towards Canada.

うん気がする

I have a feeling.

服装とかね

Clothing and such.

考え方とか

Ways of thinking, etc.

何か違うんだろうね

Something is different, isn't it?

そういう意識を埋め込められたこの家に来て

Come to this house where such awareness has been embedded.

アメリカとカナダ違うんだぜみたいな

It's like saying America and Canada are different, you know?

そうね

I see.

差別化された

Differentiated

確かに

Certainly.

違うんだと

That's not it.

同じ

The same.

同じにするなみたいな

Don't treat it as if it's the same.

感じですね

It feels like that.

うんそうだね

Yeah, that's right.

面白い

Interesting.

っていう感じで

It feels like that.

まあおうちはもうすべてあたりで幸せな日々を送った

Well, at home I've already experienced everything and spent happy days.

本当にそう

That's really true.

なんかそれのおかげでたぶんね

Because of that, probably.

多分カナダに戻ってきたいまである 絶対そうだと思うよ

I might want to go back to Canada. I'm pretty sure that's the case.

会う人が良すぎてストレスフリーすぎて 人に感謝ですよ出会いに感謝

The people I meet are so wonderful that it's completely stress-free. I'm grateful to the people and thankful for the encounters.

Grateful for my life so far. Thank you.

前世で得を積んだ私に感謝 スピリチュアルまでいっても

I am grateful for the merits I accumulated in my past life, even when it comes to spirituality.

I didn't even express my gratitude to my past life. Even to my past life.

もうだって良すぎて 本当に

It's already just too good, really.

もう本当に予想もしていませんでした 来る前はこんなことになろうと

I really didn't expect this at all; I never thought it would turn out like this before coming.

結構だって周りからの話だったらね いろんな夢みたいな

If it's something others say is fine, then it's like various dreams.

実はものとけにいた時からあきほ さんとズームしてたんだよ

Actually, I've been Zooming with Akihō-san since I was at Monotoke.

ズームしてたんだ どうするみたいな

I was zooming in, wondering what to do.

何月に来そうみたいな ちょっと学校あるまで厳しいかも

It seems like it might come in some month, but it might be tough until school starts.

とか思って そう実はあなたの部屋の下で

I was thinking that, actually, under your room...

あんな会話が行われていたんだ あの頃から

Such conversations have been taking place since that time.

ということでございました じゃあ次回は

That was the case. Well then, next time...

私が来る前に 私が来る前に

Before I come, before I come.

私たちがなぜここまで見学をしなかったのか について解明していきたいと思います

I would like to clarify why we have not conducted a visit to this extent.

私も解明したいです 本当に解明したい

I want to clarify it too. I really want to clarify it.

今後のために 今後のためにも

For the future, for the sake of the future.

今後何が起こるかわからないからね わからないので

Because we don't know what will happen in the future.

じゃあ以上で とりあえず

Well then, that's it for now.

とりあえずホームステイ こんな感じでございました

For now, it was like this with the homestay.

気を使ったこと 気を使っていないということですね

It means that you are being considerate, or that you are not being considerate.

報告書にして 最終的にはね

Make it a report, ultimately.

はいございました 皆さんも留学生活楽しんでください

Yes, it was there. Everyone, please enjoy your study abroad life!

バイバイ バイバイ

Bye bye, bye bye.

ちなみにちょっと言い忘れたんですけど

By the way, I forgot to mention something.

あきこさんのエピソード ちょっとちゃんと覚えてないんだけど

I don't quite remember Akiko's episode well, but...

結局何ホームステイ なんか2つのホームステイの家があって

In the end, what kind of homestay is it? There are two different homestay houses.

そういう人と出て友達だよっていう話を話してて

I was talking about how I went out with that kind of person and said we're friends.

でそのあるホームステイ友達の人が

So, there's a person who is a homestay friend.

一人はアメリカの子をホストしてて もう一人はカナダの子をホストしていたと

One was hosting a kid from America and the other was hosting a kid from Canada.

そしたらアメリカの子をホストしてる家の人は

Then the family hosting the American child...

なんかねうちの子なんてね 何も言わないでも勝手にね

You know, my child does things on their own without saying anything.

冷蔵庫開けて何か物食べてるの勝手に

You're opening the refrigerator and eating something without permission.

言ってたらカナダの子をホストしてる人が

Someone who is hosting a kid from Canada was saying.

私なんてね何も本当にちゃんといいんだよって言うまで何もしなかったよみたいな

I didn't really do anything until someone told me it was okay, you know?

国民性が出ていたよっていう話でした

It was a story that reflected national character.

人にもよるだろうけど

It depends on the person, I guess.

やっぱりなんか会ってそんな気するよね

I knew it, it feels like something when we meet, doesn't it?

傾向としては

As a tendency

なんかソーリーってめっちゃ言うじゃん

You keep saying "sorry" a lot, don't you?

ごめんなさいってめっちゃ言うから

I say "I'm sorry" a lot.

日本人に近い感性を持っている気がする

I feel like I have a sensitivity similar to that of Japanese people.

絶対そうだと思う

I definitely think so.

アメリカいるよ

I'm in America.

カナダの人にソーリーって言ったら

When I said "sorry" to a person from Canada

ソーリーの人みたいだねみたいな

You look like someone who says "sorry."

カナダの人たちもそういう認識あるなと思う

I think people in Canada have that kind of awareness as well.

自分たちがソーリーって言いすぎてるみたいな

It seems like we're saying "sorry" too much.

たまにソーリーっていうのは当たり前すぎて

Sometimes saying sorry is just too obvious.

なんかお互いにぶつかったのに

Even though we both ran into each other.

サラだけがなんかソーリーって言って

Only Sara said something like "sorry."

あっ違う

Ah, no.

It's alright

It's alright.

いやお前ぶつかったよみたいな時ある

"No, there are times when you say something like 'Hey, you bumped into me.'"

まあ確かにね

Well, that's true.

ちょっとムカつく

It's a little annoying.

確かに

Certainly.

お互いに普通ありがとうございましたっていう時なのに

It's the time for us to say thank you to each other as usual.

なんかもうThank youって言ったら

It's like saying thank you already.

ん?

Hmm?

とかなんか

Something like that.

うん

Yeah.

なんかえっ?

Huh?

あーオッケーオッケー

Ah, okay, okay.

あーでも確かにそうかもね

Ah, but that might be true.

でもそれは普通か

But is that normal?

Thank youは普通だけど

"Thank you is normal, but..."

ソーリーはちょっとん?って思う時ある

Sometimes I wonder if "sorry" is a bit too much?

特に若い人

Especially young people.

いやお前もだろみたいな

"Well, you too, right?"

若い女の子とか

Young girls, etc.

ありがち

Commonplace

でもそれに関しては確かに日本人よりかは

But regarding that, it's certainly more than Japanese people.

カナダの人って

People from Canada are

例えばなんかありがとうございますって言ったら

For example, if you were to say thank you...

日本人だったら

If you were Japanese.

あーそんなそんなそんなみたいな

Ah, like that, like that, like that.

いやいやありがとうございます

No, no, thank you very much.

スタジオも

The studio too.

なんかカナダの人って

It seems like Canadian people...

ヨウカン

Yokan

うんみたいな

Like, um.

It's okayみたいな

It's like, it's okay.

うん

Yeah.

感じ

Feeling

だからそこは違うかもね

So that might be different.

ソーリーもそうだけど

It's not just "sorry," but...

たまになんかそういう人いるじゃん

Sometimes there are people like that, right?

なんか見たのよなんか

I saw something, you know, something.

一回カナダかわかんないけど

I don't know if it's Canada or not.

なんか

Somehow

ありがとうございますって言って

Please say thank you.

カフェとかでなんか店員さんが

At cafes, the staff...

That's okayとかなんか

It's okay or something like that.

ヨウカンみたいな

Like yokan.

なんかなんていうの

What do you call it?

普通お前が言うだろみたいな

Usually, you'd say something like that, right?

接客的にみたいな時に

When it comes to customer service.

こう店員さん

Hey, shop assistant.

違うお客さんがありがとうって言って

Another customer said thank you.

店員さんがなんかありがとう言わなかったみたいな

It seems like the store clerk didn't say thank you or something.

いやお前だろみたいな感じのことを言ってる外国人の

It's something like a foreigner saying, "No, it's you, right?"

何かは見たことない

I have never seen anything.

そうなんだ

I see.

へー

Oh, really?

感じる人はいるのか

Is there anyone who can feel it?

いるんだね

You're here, huh?

うち逆になんかさ最初の頃とかなんか

In our case, it's kind of the opposite, you know, at the beginning or something.

Thank youって言われて

I was told "thank you."

なんかその返答の仕方がまだ慣れてなかったから

I wasn't used to that way of responding yet.

日本人ってなんか

Japanese people are kind of...

ありがとうございますって

Thank you.

いえーいありがとうございますみたいな

Yay, thank you!

ありがとうにありがとうって返しがちじゃん

It's common to reply to "thank you" with "thank you" back, isn't it?

なんかそういうノリが自分についてるからなのか

I wonder if it's because I have that kind of vibe about me.

Thank youって言われたら

When someone says thank you.

自分もThank youって言っちゃってたずっと

I’ve been saying thank you for a long time too.

それ今も言う?

Do you still say that now?

うん自分も言うと思う

Yeah, I think I would say the same.

なんかちゃんと考えられる時は

When I can think properly,

なんかもう逆にMy pleasureとか

"Somehow, on the contrary, it's like 'My pleasure'."

なんか言うようにはしようかなとは思うけど

I think I might say something, but...

Thank youって言われたら

When someone says "Thank you,"

Thank youって言っちゃう

I can't help but say thank you.

言っちゃうよね

I'll say it, you know.

だいたい

Roughly.

Sorryって言われたら

If you say "sorry."

Sorryって言っちゃうし

I tend to say "sorry."

Sorryって言われてさ

I was told "sorry."

That's all rightってなんだっけな

What does "That's all right" mean?

なんだ

What is it?

It's okayとか

It's okay and such.

That's fineとか

That's fine, or something like that.

Sorry do this

Sorry, do this.

I'm sorry

ごめんなさい

同時に言うくない?当たったら

"Don't you want to say it at the same time? If we hit it."

カットとか当たっちゃったら

If I get cut or something.

Sorry sorryみたいな

Something like "sorry sorry."

Sorry that's okay

ごめんなさい、大丈夫です。

お前じゃあ一回も謝る気ないよみたいな

It feels like you don't have any intention of apologizing even once.

そうね

That's right.

それでこの間バレーボールを見たじゃん

So, I saw volleyball the other day.

あの時に後ろに座ってたのがなんか

There was something about sitting in the back at that time.

もう周りがすごい子供達だったもん

There were really amazing kids all around.

なんか多分バレーボールをやり始めた子達みたいな

It seems like they are probably kids who just started playing volleyball.

でねやっぱり上手い先輩方がさやってるわけだからそれをみんなで見に来てるみたいな

Well, it seems like everyone comes to see because the skilled seniors are doing it.

でなんかその後ろにコーチがいたのよ

And then there was a coach behind that.

コーチが多分子供達になんかその例えば誰かがいいプレーをしましたみたいな

The coach probably tells the kids something like, for example, when someone makes a good play.

そしたらそのポジションにいる子に対して

Then, to the child in that position,

なんかあれは君がやることだみたいな感じで

It feels like that's something you should do.

なんかすっごいみんなで盛り上がってたんだよ

Everyone was really getting excited together.

そのノリでなんか多分手をめっちゃ使ってたんだろうね

I guess I was probably using my hands a lot in that vibe.

なんかもう頭をパーンって叩かれたのよ後ろから

Something suddenly hit me in the back of the head.

I'm sorryって言われて

I was told "I'm sorry."

Oh sorryって言っちゃったのよ

I ended up saying "Oh, sorry."

だって自分悪くないからね

Because it's not my fault.

悪くないよ

It's not bad.

それはおもろい

That's interesting.

それはおもろいわ

That's interesting.

でちゃんと2回目からはソーリーじゃなくて

So starting from the second time, it's not "sorry" anymore.

That's okayって言ってた

They said it's okay.

2回殴られましたよ後ろから

I was hit twice from behind.

でもなんか

But somehow...

2回もやっぱり

After all, twice.

そういうこと?

Is that how it is?

Oh sorry

Oh, I'm sorry.

殴りすぎない

Don't hit too much.

That's okay

それは大丈夫です。

でもなんかさとっさに言われるとさ

But when I'm suddenly told that...

こう焦って普通に日本の会心で

I'm so anxious, normally in Japan I would be thrilled.

あごめんなさいって

I'm sorry.

あすいません大丈夫です大丈夫ですみたいな

Oh, I'm sorry. It's okay, it's okay, something like that.

そうそうそうそう

That's right, that's right, that's right!

I'm sorry it's okay it's okayみたいな感じ

It's like saying "I'm sorry, it's okay, it's okay."

とりあえず最初にソーリーって出ちゃう

For now, I’ll just say sorry at first.

わかるわかる

I understand, I understand.

ソーリーって言われたら

When someone says "sorry,"

ソーリー

Sorry.

でももうThank youにする

But I'll just say thank you now.

ソーリーって言ってくれたらいいよと

It's fine if you say "sorry."

Thank youって

Thank you.

Thank you for appreciating

Thank you for your appreciation.

っていう

That's what I'm saying.

確かに素敵

Indeed wonderful.

っていう感じでカナダの国民性が見える

You can see the national character of Canada in that way.

よく謝ると思うでも

I think you apologize a lot, but...

謝る聞かせる

Apologize and listen.

威張ってないと思います

I don't think I'm being arrogant.

アメリカとかだったらなんか謝った方が負けみたいな感じ

In America, it feels like apologizing makes you the loser or something.

言うね

I will say it.

めっちゃ言い訳する

I'm making a lot of excuses.

めっちゃ言い訳してくる

They make a lot of excuses.

ソフトとかやってても

Even when I'm doing software or something like that...

どう考えてもガチでそれはもうお前の責任だろうみたいな

No matter how you think about it, that's definitely your responsibility, right?

エラーした時も

Even when there is an error

いやーごめんごめんって言うのさ

Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry.

ベンチに帰る時になんか目合っちゃったりしたら

If we happened to lock eyes when returning to the bench...

いやーThat was my badって言った後にめっちゃ

Yeah, after I said "That was my bad," I really...

いやーもう光が目に入っちゃってさ

Wow, the light is really getting in my eyes.

なんかもう腰が痛くてもう足が動かなくなっちゃって

I don't know, but my back hurts and my legs can't move anymore.

その時に急にハイエンド来たから

It suddenly became high-end at that time.

ブルルルルってずっと言い訳言ってくる

They keep making excuses, saying "bururururu."

あったんだからもう

It was there, after all.

熱々してんなー

It's really hot!

だからサラもさエラーしたらそういうこと言うと思われ

That's why I think Sara would say something like that if she made a mistake.

なんかもう言わないように

"Just try not to say anything anymore."

もう大丈夫だよ大丈夫だよ大丈夫だよ

It's okay now, it's okay, it's okay.

言い訳なくしなくても大丈夫みたいな

It seems like it's okay not to make excuses.

言われる

To be told / to be said.

言わん言いません

I won't say it.

する気ないですって

I don't intend to do it.

おもろいな

That's interesting.

本当にそれはなんかでも日本人の性格も出てると思った

I really thought that it somewhat reflects the personality of Japanese people.

こう武士に二言はないみたいなさ感じのイメージね

It's like the image of a samurai who doesn't speak twice.

なんかもうやってしまったものはもう自分の責任だったり

It's like whatever has already been done is my responsibility now.

そういうのはない気がする

I don't think there is anything like that.

確かにそうですよね

That's certainly true.

とりあえずどうにかもう言い訳で挽回しようっていう感じはする

For now, it feels like I'm trying to make up for it with excuses somehow.

謝りはするけど

I will apologize, but...

そこは違うだね

That's not correct.

っていう感じ

That's the kind of feeling.

よく言わないあきこさんも言い訳すんなよみたいな

It's like saying, "Even you, Akiko, who usually doesn't speak up, shouldn't make excuses."

言い訳多いんですよ

You make a lot of excuses.

まあそうかもね確かにね

Well, that might be true, definitely.

マジでそれは思う

I really think that.

言い訳したもん勝ちみたいなところあるよね

It seems like there's a tendency for excuses to win out.

逆にね

On the contrary.

確かに

Certainly.

つられるかも

I might be influenced.

なんかちゃんと自分の批判を認める

Somehow, I properly acknowledge my own criticism.

認める

To acknowledge.

だけど

But.

だけどこういう理由だったんだよみたいな

But it was for this kind of reason, you know.

確かに

Certainly.

知らないよみたいな

I don’t know, it seems like.

おじさんもめっちゃ言うよね

Uncle really says that a lot, doesn't he?

でも確かにそうかもね

But that might be true.

可愛いよねなんかね

It's kind of cute, isn't it?

みんな言うかも

Everyone might say that.

子供みたいと思っちゃう

I feel like you're acting like a child.

だからなんかちゃんと言わないと分かんないよみたいな

So if you don't say it properly, I won't understand.

多分ねなんか全て全部伝えようみたいな感じ

Maybe it's like trying to convey everything.

それがもう言い訳の方に走ってるみたいなね

It seems like that’s already leaning towards making excuses.

多分日本人からしたら言い訳みたいに聞こえるんだと思う

I think it probably sounds like an excuse from a Japanese person's perspective.

普通にこっちの人からしたら

From the perspective of an ordinary person here...

ちゃんと伝えてるみたいなね

It seems like I'm properly conveying it, you know?

だから日本人本当に何を考えてるか分かんないって言われたよね

That's why people say they really can't understand what Japanese people are thinking.

謝るだけじゃダメだって

Just saying sorry isn't enough.

うちもなんかずっと言われてたもん

We've also been told something for a long time.

自分じゃないけど

It's not me, but...

そのうちの働いてたとこで男の子が

At the place where I was working, there was a boy.

そのマネージャーに謝っても分からないみたいな

It seems like apologizing to that manager won't make a difference.

イエスって言ってるだけじゃ分からないみたいな

It seems like just saying "yes" isn't enough to understand.

まぁそうだよね

Well, that's true.

でも日本でそこでなんかさ

But in Japan, something like that...

こうこうこうだったかこうしましたとか言ってたら

If I said something like, "It was like this, or I did it like that,"

誘惑すんなって言われるじゃん

I’m told not to tempt.

違うね確かに

That's different, for sure.

でもなんか人と付き合うとか同棲してる時に

But when it comes to dating or living together with someone...

になったらいいのかも

It might be nice if that happens.

こうこうこういう理由でこうなったとか

This happened for such reasons.

全部言ったほうが

It's better to say everything.

分かりやすい

Easy to understand.

言わないで伝わりませんみたいな

"It's like saying it won't be conveyed if you don't say it."

ありえないから

It’s impossible.

当たり前だからそんな

It's only natural, so...

と思いました

I thought so.

恋人だから伝わると思わないでくださいっていうことですね

Please don't think that just because we're in a relationship, it will be understood.

伝わらないです

It doesn't get through.

結論

Conclusion

ちなみにでした

By the way, it was.

失礼いたします

Excuse me.

それでは皆さんまた次回

Well then, everyone, see you next time.

また次のエピソードでーす

This is the next episode.
