feelings in Cusco

Travels bring me many feelings :) ☺️😘😳🤗😆😭😟🙃

 

Cusco had clear nice sky (Cielo in Spanish)

Made me feel ALIVE 😆

 

Lima was like winter Delhi covered with dense cloud. Ppl wearing dark color. Though later on I felt ppl are kind, taking good care of their big family.

Compared to Lima, Cusco had really refreshing blue sky ! Like summer Ladakh.

Even in the high area many restaurants had fish... maybe for tourist.

I thought puno would have more fish from lake titikaka but still chicken seems majority??

traveling makes me...

Traveling makes me

 

Recall Past travels/ shiftingd n feeling then

 

When I visited Gotoh island.. while having interviews to get next job 

What I want ? What comes next ? 

Unclarity n unxiety

Gentle breeze n gentle friend

Purest blue beach that I have ever seen in my life

 

When I started living in Delhi

Full of waku waku doki doki kira kira...✨ and also naturally anxiety 

 

Many travels in India...

Each town. Explore from zero n getting to know the place gradually..like RPGs

Free from the roles. Can choose anything as  want...

Reminds me the beauty of nature n architectures, ppls life...

 

I liked the lifestyle, traveling every month.

 

Do I want to work again in Delhi?

Not Delhi?

Not the same place?

A

Other place in India? Other countries?

Same thing like working as a Japanese in Japanese community ?

Hmm

One job discrimination recently i got was market research one in Holland based company in Malaysia, taking care of Japanese interviewees (in Japan)

Seems interesting.

Marketing field, not a Japanese company, ( but only few Japanese ppl would be anxious for me 😳no experience. But maybe good anxiety?) Just being Malaysia might be bit boring compared to India.

India... Can I get visa again? Hm, just try..

Don't need to think about it now.

Or maybe half India half Japan?

Industry of marketing is interesting but too busy ??

What's important for me ....!!

Web marketing and writing?

 

Oh getting into random thoughts on my work.

Yep travels makes me think about future too.

During the journey in Ladakh also I was wondering many things abt future.

Tried to think what I wanna do even I was in depression. Some of them is really coming true. 😘 Yeah I'm a lucky active girl 😉

 

However, probably most important thing is getting absorbed in the present time.

What you can see, listen n taste...

Like yoga or meditation.

 

God please guide me 🙏🕉️

 

 

 

Random thoughts on japanese migration to Peru... combination of family invitation & business purpose

Random thoughts on #japanesemigration to #peru


After finishing contract base migration ( by the government around 1923_1934)

 

ppl started #yobiyose private one to invite their family to Peru.

However the document to apply visa says for the purpose of the business.

Interesting to see the combination. They run their own business so eligibility would be like inviting family & business purposes?

Plaza de Armas same style of Hispanic cities

Both Lima and Cusco have Plaza de Armas,

surrounded by churches n official buildings.

(Like many major cities have Jama Masjid, means big mosk in India !?)

 

Plaza de Armas in Lima

Plaza de Armas in Cusco


f:id:jfc_maligaya:20190717191404j:image

(While Winter Lima is covered with thick cloud ☁️ Cusco is so sunny! ☀️)

 

 So What is Plaza de Armas?

Ask Wikipedia...

-literally Weapons Square,💣⚔️

but better translated as Parade Square or parade ground🎉

-the name for the main square in many Hispanic Americancities.

-In the central region of Mexico this space is known as El Zócalo and in Central America as Parque Central (Central Park).

-While some large cities have both a Plaza de Armas and a Plaza Mayor, in most cities those are two names for the same place.

-Most cities constructed by the Spanish conquistadores were designed in a standard military fashion, based on a grid pattern taken from the Roman castrum, of which one of the blocks would be left vacant to form the Plaza de Armas.

-It is often surrounded by governmental buildings, churches, and other structures of cultural or political significance.

-The name derives from the fact that this would be a refuge in case of an attack upon the city, from which arms would be supplied to the defenders.

 

Naruhodo...

That's why there are in many Hispanic places.

Manila was also like that that's why maybe i felt nostalgic...

This is different from Japanese ancient cities? It's mainly castles n not that open.

Delhi wasn't like that neither.

Since it's originally from Roman style?

Roman king liked open style ?

 

thoughts on Japanese Peruvian (Nikkei) and thoughts on migration

 

Visited the cultural center for Japanese Peruvian.

 

Interestingly one of the famous Peruvian food Ceviche (marinated white fish) seems to have the influence of Sashimi, eating raw fish, induced be Japanese immigrants

Wondering how they can be so kind, being kind of scattered their life bcz the of the economical & political situation in each time..

Whether to teach Japanese or not.

Second generation? Are not be taught Japanese since there parents thought they might be buried.

Hmmmm really parallel of the situation in Japan. I wanna respect native culture n so called Japanese culture both.

What about myself in Manila n Delhi?

I was cooking both Japanese food Indian food.  In the restaurant I loved local food.

I found myself a kind of person who want to be integrated to the host country.

Why? That was much fun when gathering with local ppl.

I'm my case also it's related to the social situation or economic need that (Japanese )company or client wanted Japanese worker to live n work there. But the situation was better than foreign (blue) workers in Japan now. Though payment was less then ppl who were dispatched by the headquarters...still I enjoyed the local life. I could do that cz prices are lower than Japan. In case of like Philippinas coming from the Philippines, prices are higher I'm Japan, still payment is higher than the Philippines relatively lower than other Japanese n they send money to the Philippines... Hmm. Everyone should live more plain life to make the society of equality!?!?

 

 

 

are you a feminist? do you like feminist?

Saying out that I'm a feminist would be still tough, since the image of feminist is too aggressive?

 


f:id:jfc_maligaya:20190713212441j:image

 

I like the philosophy of feminism which aim to improve the society without any discrimination.

It's actually not just for women but for all people but for men, generally who have had power ? It seems hard to be criticised...

I also have power maybe consciously and unconsciously. I would also feel awkuard if I would be accused... 

Hmm. Considering how the majority would accept the issue is important to make effective action but at the same time  the  anger of the minority who have been surpresssed is understandable. Well but actually both minority and majority can act together. Even majority has been also kind of suppressed to be expected to act like that. E.g. " You should work hard cz you are the men" 

Hmm I wonder what is the meaning of affirmative action.

It's to balance the power maybe ?

Or keep the diversity in society?

Do majority would be happy to accept affirmative action? Do majority agree that affirmative action is good for them also in the long term ?

Hmmmm!

 

Sometimes I like the hostels run by Japanese cz I could read some good books that can't read in busy dialy lives...

 

I liked the phrase,

Let's falling love with yourself.

Motto jibun ni koi shiyo 😘 

While we can often see the phrase love yourself more or take care of yourself, koi shiyo was kind of new and cute concept to me ;)
