ダニエル先生、週末に焼き肉、たこの刺身、激辛ラーメンなど「本場」の日本食を堪能したようです…

This has been a good week for me to eat some different types of food.

While I know they are very common for most Japanese people, I still haven’t had the chance to eat them so often. I was lucky to have been able to eat a lot of really tasty meals over the past couple of days.
First I had yakiniku which I found to be really fun as well as delicious.  In Canada I would really enjoy barbecuing in the backyard, and although it’s inside it’s still really enjoyable.
I also got to have salted octopus sashimi which is one of my favourite foods.  Many of my friends think that it’s strange but it’s so tasty to me.
Finally I had spicy shoyu ramen.  I really love spicy foods so I try to get the spiciest dishes there are to offer whenever I get the chance.
Japan has so many delicious foods to try and I have only scratched the surface.  I hope everyone is staying safe, having a wonderful weekend.

A bag for life?

今日(7/1)より日本ではスーパーやコンビニでのレジ袋が有料になりますね。すでに日本ではエコバッグの使用は浸透しているようです。世界でも環境のためにプラスチックゴミを減らす運動が広がっています。そこで、英語でエコバッグのいろいろな言い方を紹介します。

eco-bag
eco-friendly bag
reusable bag
reusable shopping bag
shopping bag
tote bag
shopping tote
ここまではだいたいどこの英語圏でも違和感がなさそうですが、
bag for life (一生使えるバッグ)という呼び方はイギリスでしか通用しないかもしれません。
