【哈瓦那·古巴】English after Mandarin
義大利藝術評論家Philippe Daverio說「真正藝術包括不同方位的解讀」,需要具有「模擬兩可性或是不可捉摸性」。我覺得哈瓦那就是這樣一個獨特的城市。作為一個真正的藝術城市,哈瓦那真實體現了那種不可捉摸的面向。
Philippe Daverio, an Italian art critic, says real art includes interpretations from different perspectives and should be ambiguous or unpredictable. I think Havana, as a true city of art, genuinely reflects that unpredictability.
對於古巴的第一印象來自於社會主義風格的哈瓦那機場。外觀有棱有角,活像是隨時會翻身戰鬥的變形金剛。這點又跟注重建築與環境與人文呼應的新未來主義建築不謀而合,就像Zaha Hadid在廣州建造的那兩隻蟾蜍劇院一樣。這麽多的想像與那種所謂的藝術的模擬兩可性恰恰重合。
My first impression of Cuba came from the Havana airport with that strong socialistic flavor. The angular exterior of the terminal looks exactly like one of those Transformer robots who might spring to life and battle at any second. This coincides with the concept of neo-futurism buildings which stresses the link between buildings and their surroundings. A great example is the angular toad-like Guangzhou Opera House. All that imagination accords with the so-called ambiguity of art.
內部紅色的證照查驗關讓人感覺熱情卻又搭配共產主義的不協調。飛機上座位旁邊的古巴先生嘴裡不時哼著歌曲,機場接駁車和接機計程車上也有動感音樂。我感到困惑。
Inside the terminal is the red immigration cubicles with that yellow tint, which gives a sense of incongruity combining passion with seemingly cold communism. That reminds me of the Cuban guy next to me on the plane who was humming songs all the time. Music can also be found on the boarding gate shuttle as well as the taxi I rode to downtown Havana. I was perplexed.
我問接機的司機英文哪學來的。他說學校裡的外來語文教育中有英文的選項,但不是很受重視。司機又說歐巴馬時代古巴開始轉型經濟準備起飛。可惜目前川普打壓古巴,連房地產都低迷。從路上年輕一代的新潮穿著,我感覺到古巴已不再是舊時代的古巴了。對於古巴一切都還在摸索中。
I asked the cab driver where he learned his English. He replied that English was one of the foreign language options in school, but English was not considered important. He then started to talked about how Obama helped boost Cuba’s economy with the loosened US-Cuban tension. It was unfortunate since Trump swore in and everything had been beaten down including the travel and real estate industries. I could still spot the change from young people’s fashionable outfits. It felt like Cuba was not the old Cuba that I learned from the travel guide. Everything about Cuba was yet to be explored.
哈瓦那絕不是說英文天堂。從找住宿開始,我那卑微的西班牙文就被迫徹徹底底地運轉起來。還好事先下載了估狗翻譯裡的西文選項,加上我確實請過家教老師學習基礎西文發音,這樣勉強能與當地人溝通一下。我也懷疑憑我這樣三腳貓的西文能有什麼本事去解讀這樣一個謎一般的國度?
By all means, Havana is no heaven for English speakers. From the moment I decided to find a casa/guest house on my own, my puny Spanish vocabulary was forced to work hard. (Yeah, I only know about a couple of hundred words. Shame on me!) The good thing is that I downloaded Spanish on my Google Translate in advance. Plus I hired a private tutor to learn Spanish phonics. I somehow managed to communicate with the locals. Sometimes, I doubted how I was going to open up this mysterious nation with my lousy Spanish.
入住後第一件事情就是憑著以往旅行經驗慣例出門找超市。哪知那樣的作法在這特立獨行的國度完全不適用。在哈瓦那舊城區(Habana Vieja)的民宅區裡沒有所謂的招牌。這意味著一個社區中大多數人彼此相互認識,才能知道誰家在哪裡提供什麼樣的服務。可憐如我,為了找瓶裝水,在附近用破爛的西文「Donde esta el agua」問路。經過三個人指了不同的方向後,終於找到一位熱心的先生直接帶我去一個不起眼的窗口買水。饒是這樣我也花了將近30分鐘才順利取得珍貴的飲用水資源。
The first thing I did after I checked into a casa was to follow my routine as a traveler and find a supermarket. Who would have known that this idea completely did not work here. In some residential areas of Old Havana, shop signs simply do not exist. This probably means most people in the community know each other, and thus are aware of where to go to find services they need without shop signs. That translated into my predicament as I tried to find some bottled water in the neighborhood. I literally asked for directions with my broken Spanish, Donde esta el agua? Following three kind passersby’s help in three different directions, I found a nice guy who took me to an inconspicuous window where I finally obtained two very precious bottles of water, which took me 30 minutes for this entire water-getting process.
在找水的途中我看到了麵包店只批量生產吐司和小圓麵包、窄門裡只賣菸和酒的店家、有簡單桌椅的餐廳,以及一目了然的理髮店。這一切都沒有資本主義的招牌來包裝社區的基本運作。也因為對於這裡的無知,我將注意力集中在斑駁街道與頹傾樓房之間發出的聲響上。鍋裡油炸的聲音、收音機裡的音樂、雞啼、車子裡的動感貝斯、路人跟我說hola、先生親吻太太臉頰打波的聲響、吉娃娃的嗷叫,以及路人在街頭講公共電話的聲音—我走在街道的中央聆聽哈瓦那的脈動。當然我所在的這條街絕對不會是觀光客川流不息的Obispo步行街。總之,這裡的許多事物顛覆了我對一個城市的認知。
En route to finding water, I saw a bakery producing only toast and rolls in batch, a shop selling only cigarettes and liquors, a restaurant with simple tables and chairs, and a barbershop that you can see it all at a glance. Everything here ran basically without the packaging of capitalistic shop signs. Because of my ignorance of Cuba, I started to shift my attention to the sounds made between the mottled streets and faded buildings. Deep frying noises from a pan, music from the radio, a rooster’s crowing, pounding bass from a car stereo, hola from a passerby, smackers from a husband to his wife, a chihuahua’s barking, and someone talking on a public phone—I was walking in the middle of a small street listening to the heart beats of Old Havana. Where I was standing is surely not the tourist-flooded Obispo pedestrian zone. Regardless, my perception about what a city ought to be was totally overthrown by the things I experienced initially.
對於古巴的第一印象是新奇且難以用一般邏輯去理解的。我覺得接下來的旅程我應該放下對於一個國家既定的預期。也許這樣才能領會只屬於古巴的不可捉摸的藝術。
My first impression about Cuba was novel yet hard to understand with the common sense. I felt I needed to let go of my expectations for the country. Perhaps, that way I could grasp a touch of the unpredictable art that only belongs to Cuba.

司機英文 在 跟著莫莉過生活 Facebook 的最佳解答
#峇里島 #偽單身閨蜜遊 #不專業遊記🤣
話說~ 這次我人一踏進峇里島、完全放空耍廢🤣
說好的拍照和錄影寫文統統都沒有🤣
所以這次單純放下玉照和簡單的紀錄🙈
其實我沒想過小寶哥5歲我就可以單身出遊😌
我還以為這日子將會是很遙遠很遙遠
我回來後一直問楊大人兩父子這4天的生活
問很多細節
笑死了🤣
原來小寶哥當天起床後發現我走了有大哭🤣
後來爸爸很快安撫了
然後帶他出門吃薯條和雪糕 (這時候已忘記了老媽)
再帶他回我娘家參加表姐生日會
然後他也收到好多禮物 (這時候已忘記了老媽 x 2)
然後這4天爸爸完全不用他睡午覺
除了上學之後就是玩
小寶哥應該很懷念這4天完全走調的生活吧🤣🤣🤣
好了~ #以下是不專業的峇里島遊記
除了機票錢之外,今次4天3夜住宿加包車合共費用只是約每人HK$1200😌 (我們一行7人夾份) 人多真的好划算啊🤣
#最多人問我的是住的villa是?
Villa是Karma Kandara
非常非常正的度假村!如果你們有機會來峇里
我非常推薦你們住這家!
整個度假村都係獨立Villa
也有管家跟進我們的狀況
我們住的是4房2廳、超級大
有廚房、飯廳、客廳、每睡房有獨立浴室
每間villa有自家花園和泳池
但要小心猴子入來偷東西🤣
公家游泳池也好漂亮
也可以直達自家沙灘
Karma Beach是峇里島上數一數二絕美沙灘
真的好好好漂亮
每天早上吃早餐的餐廳也好漂亮
從山上看著海景
不過Villa不在市中心
晚上回去時車子要上山又沒路燈會好驚🙈
#包車連司機
原來峇里島包車很便宜!我們在Kkday租了9人車
4天費用是HK$1900 (每日10小時用車)連同司機小費
除開每人只是約HK$300
司機會說點英文、也可以用微信溝通
但因為我這司機英文不是非常好
有搞錯過地點
不過人很有禮貌
#行程景點有推薦嗎
其實峇里有好多水上活動
也有很有名的Bali swing
不過我們統統無去🤣
因為我們待在Villa、沙灘都好好玩
我們都有外出就是為了吃飯
餐廳是去司機和villa推薦的
多數吃印尼菜和沙爹串燒
其中一晚有去海邊烤海鮮
餐廳在海灘上、近距離邊吃邊看海
可是晚上浪很大、海水會隨時拍到腳邊🤣
價位不很便宜、海鮮也不是活海鮮😅
還有瘋狂去超市🤣
超市很好買、道地印尼用品食品超便宜
我4天個人洗費用了約HK$800
就是吃飯、買點東西和手信
沒有特別省、只是峇里真的沒什麼好買🤣
#最後想說就是唱錢方面
去峇里島旅遊唱錢要非常小心
因為印尼盾面額超大
好多找換店不老實騙遊客
甚至在計算機做手腳
所以換錢時要加倍小心
我們是在香港用港幣換美金
再在峇里用美金換印尼盾
還有我想說...峉里的服務業態度真的很...😡
特別是遊客區的餐廳
遇上服務員臭臉的機率是非常非常高😅
然後晚晚在villa聊天喝酒吃零食玩到半夜2點
睡到自然醒真好😌
就分享以上喔❤️

土耳其位於歐亞交界,有分為亞洲區和歐洲區,亞洲區相對local多一點,歐洲區遊客多一點,我很喜歡亞洲區,很有當地的味道,物價也較低些,可以在很多小店挖到寶。
從歐洲區到亞洲區搭計程車的話會多收跨海大橋or海底隧道的過路費,40/60,這裡司機英文普遍不好,如果被多收費了不要以為被坑哦!(但也是真的很多會坑人的司機啦)
