Facts about Italy in slow italian

Venezia

오늘은 토요일입니다.
아침 8시에 지수 씨는 알람 소리를 듣고 일어났습니다. 평일보다 늦게 일어났지만 피곤하지 않았습니다.
지수 씨는 먼저 세수를 하고 간단하게 아침을 먹었습니다. 아침으로 토스트와 우유를 먹었고, 커피도 한 잔 마셨습니다.

아침을 먹은 후, 지수 씨는 청소기를 돌리고 방을 정리했습니다. 평소에 시간이 없어서 청소를 자주 못 했기 때문에 오늘은 집 안을 깨끗하게 청소했습니다.

청소를 마친 후에는 친구와 약속이 있어서 옷을 갈아입고 지하철을 탔습니다. 약속 장소는 강남역 근처에 있는 카페였습니다. 지하철은 생각보다 한산했고, 앉아서 갈 수 있었습니다.

친구를 만난 지수 씨는 카페에서 커피를 마시면서 이야기를 나눴습니다.
두 사람은 회사 생활, 여행 계획, 취미에 대해 이야기했습니다. 친구는 다음 달에 일본으로 여행을 간다고 했습니다.

오후 3시쯤, 지수 씨는 친구와 헤어진 후 백화점에 갔습니다. 운동화를 사고 싶었기 때문입니다. 백화점에는 다양한 브랜드의 신발이 있었고, 지수 씨는 여러 가지 신발을 신어 본 후 마음에 드는 흰색 운동화를 하나 골랐습니다.

집으로 돌아오는 길에 마트에 들러 저녁 식사 재료도 샀습니다.
지수 씨는 떡볶이와 김밥을 만들 계획이었습니다. 집에 도착하자마자 바로 요리를 시작했습니다.

요리를 다 하고 TV를 보면서 저녁을 먹었습니다. 오늘 하루는 바빴지만 알차고 즐거운 날이었습니다.

最近家でもやしを育て始めました。
きっかけは私がいつも見ているYoutubeチャンネルでもやしの育て方を紹介しているのを偶然見たからです。その動画を見る限り、もやしを育てるのはとても簡単そうでした。
面倒くさがりの私にもできそうだなと思いました。
実際にやってみると、想像以上に簡単で、毎日もやしの成長を見るのもとても楽しいです。
アジアに住んでいる人にとっては、もやしはどこでも売っていて、手に入れやすいものかもしれません。ドイツでももやしは売っていますが、毎日売っていなかったり、見つけても色が悪かったりします。自分で育てたもやしは新鮮でおいしいです。

みなさんは最近やり始めたことはありますか？
よかったら私のレッスンに来て教えてください。

Mi Historia

After 15 months, three Israeli hostages have left Hamas captivity as a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas took hold on the morning of January 19.

Dozens of Palestinian prisoners also walked free from Israeli jail as the skies above Gaza and Israel were silent for the first time in over a year, stirring modest hopes for ending the Israel-Hamas war.

The ceasefire deal, with an initial phase lasting six weeks, calls for the entry into Gaza of 600 trucks carrying humanitarian relief daily. Over the course of the deal's first stage, 33 Israeli hostages in Hamas captivity in Gaza will also be released in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners.

Many Israelis stayed glued to TV screens to glimpse the three hostages — Emily Damari, Romi Gonen and Doron Steinbrecher — being released as militants handed them over to the Red Cross on a packed street in Gaza City.

In videos released by the Israeli government, the women were seen weeping and hugging family members. Damari raised a bandaged hand in triumph.

The military said she lost two fingers in the Hamas-led militant attack on October 7, 2023, that killed over 1,200 people and resulted in the abduction of some 250 others.

Meanwhile, in the occupied West Bank, crowds flooded the streets around 1 a.m. on January 20 as white buses carrying 90 Palestinian detainees — all women or teens — exited the gates of Ofer prison.

Fireworks erupted, and several men climbed atop one of the buses to raise Hamas flags.

All of those being released had been detained for what Israel called offenses related to its security, from throwing stones and promoting violence on social media to more serious accusations such as attempted murder.

Khalida Jarrar, one of the freed detainees, told The Associated Press: "There's this double feeling we're living in, on the one hand, this feeling of freedom, that we thank everyone for, and on the other hand, this pain, of losing so many Palestinian martyrs."
