風情異地-清邁旅居·生活 / Things Outside Yunnan - stay and life in Chiang Mai

盛暑時節來到泰國清邁，到處花木扶疏的景象就彷彿這個熱帶國度張開了雙臂、歡迎著到來的人。

When I came to Chiang Mai, Thailand in the hot season, there're the sights of blooming flowers and lush trees everywhere, which is seemed as that this tropical country were welcoming people with its opened arms.

旅居的日子裡，學習、社交、工作、休閒，從生活的方方面面感受這座城市、揣摩屬於這裡的生活方式。而今終於明白，作為老牌的旅遊城市，至今還吸引著世界各國的人們來訪、以至於待下來的，無非就是它特有的舒適感了吧。

In the days of stay, I study, socialize, work, and leisure so as to feel the city from all aspects of life, and try to figure out a lifestyle of living in the place.  Now I eventually understand that, to be an old tourist city, what makes it still keeps attracting people from all over the world to visit and stay should be its unique comfort.




*   *   *   *   *

無論是宜人的氣候、大眾口味的飲食、饒富特色的文化、微笑國度的氛圍或其他，每個人都能找到他喜歡這座城市的理由。作為觀光客，這裡有多樣的體驗內容讓你留下深刻的回憶。而作為旅居者，這裡也不缺能夠豐富你的生活的學習課程。

Whether it's pleasant climate, popular flavored foods, featured culture, the atmosphere of so called "country of smile", or something else, everyone can find his/her reason to like the city.   For a tourist, there are a variety of contents to be experienced which will make you impressive of the city.  For a person who long stay in here, there are also something can be learned to enrich one's life.




*   *   *   *   *

漸漸體會到，所謂的「生活」，應該不只是生命「活著」的狀態。如果有個所在，能讓人恣意地去想、自由地去做，身心健康之餘還有許多學習、精進的機會，應該就是生命旅程中可以落腳的一個地方了吧！

Gradually realized that the so-called "life" should not merely be a state of "alive".   If there is a place where people can think and do anything freely and allows people to  learn and improve themselves while the physical and mental health can be maintained, it should be the place where one's life can be settled down!

一年的時間過了近半，多雨的季節也悄然到來。令人印象深刻的是熱帶的陣雨，還有在屋簷下躲著雨、靜看著城市的街景...

This year has passed nearly half, and the rainy season has come in a silent manner.   What impressive in this season are the tropical showers, as well as the feelings of shielding under the eaves in rain and seeing the street scenes of the city silently...

風情異地-越南印象 / Things Outside Yunnan - the impression for Vietnam

圖片
今夏初次有機會到越南，走訪了北部的河內、中部的峴港等地。對這個東南亞國家的初步印象，作為中華文化圈的一份子，感覺越南的文化好比日、韓，比較像是中華文化的一個變體，從它的建築風格、米食文化、茶文化等多個方面都可見端倪。 This summer, I got the opportunity to go to Vietnam for the first time, and visited some places in the northern and central Vietnam including Hanoi and Da Nang.  As a member of the Chinese cultural circle, my first impression of this Southeast Asian country is that, as like Japan and Korea, Vietnam's culture is just like a variant of Chinese culture, which can be seen from its architectural style, rice food culture, tea culture, and many other aspects. *   *   *   *   * 由於地處東南亞的地緣關係，可以看到越南自古以來受東亞、南亞文化影響的痕跡，包括古代中國的儒家思想、孔廟和古代印度的婆羅門教、佛教寺廟。特別是古時的政治、教育制度在許多方面借鑑了中國，以至於到今天其民族性也頗有華人的影子：同為東南亞國家，相較於泰國這個樂天而隨興的佛國，越南比較像是一個務實而勤奮的農耕民族。 Due to its geographical location in Southeast Asia, there are the signs of the influence of East Asian and South Asian culture to Vietnam since ancient times that include Confucianism and Confucius...

雲居日記–雨季鄉居 / Cloud Residence Diary - the life in rainy season's village

騰衝的雨季裡最讓客居的人們難以適應的，無非就是那種每天連綿細雨的陰雨天了。不便出行的狀況下，人往往更願意待在屋子裡。望著院子裡的雨景，是有幾分的愜意。只是這樣連續幾天下來，人在高濕度的空氣裡久了，難免會產生煩悶感，教人難以排解。 What the most unendurable in the rainy season of Tengchong for people who long stay in it, should be nothing but the rainy days that are drizzling every day.  People are more likely to stay in the house while they are inconvenient to go out.  It is some cozy to look at the rain in the yard, however, if the weather is like this for several days, people in the high-humidity air for a long time will inevitably feel bored, which is hard to be relieved. *     *     *     *     * 儘管這樣的天氣令人煩悶，在院子裡看著花木在有限的陽光、充沛的雨水裡努力地生長著，心裡油然而生幾分欣慰；喝著雲南這片土地上的百年老樹所生長出來的普洱生茶，這種在熱天裡能讓人感覺沁涼的飲品，在這種濕涼的天氣裡竟然也能在人的身體裡產生出一種特別的暖意。 Although the weather is boresome, when I saw the flowers and trees in the yard to grow in the limited sunshine and abundant rain, my heart was a little bit gratified; when I drank the Pu'er raw tea t...
