Of course, people don’t buy mooncakes just to eat them. Mooncakes represent family reunion and good wishes during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Many people buy mooncakes as gifts for their family, friends, and colleagues to show their care. Even if they don’t really like mooncakes, they still buy them because what matters is the feeling behind the gift, not the taste.


China with Grace

Do you think Chinese people eat mooncakes?买月饼，真的为了吃吗？

みなさんこんにちは! 前回のエピソードではブリュッセルの好きなところをお話ししたので今回はブリュッセルの嫌いなところをお話しします。
一つ目は、治安があまりよくないところです。ブリュッセルではスリや盗難がたまにあります。特に観光地や電車の中では、持ち物に気をつけなければいけません。
二つ目は、物価が高いところです。特にレストランや外食は、日本と比べるととても高く感じます。そのため、外食は特別な日にだけにすることが多いです。
三つ目は、天気が悪いところです。ブリュッセルではくもりや雨の日が多く、冬は日が短いので、少し悲しい気持ちになることもあります。でも、そんなときはおいしいケーキや温かい飲み物で元気を出すようにしています。
こんなふうに、ブリュッセルには好きなところも嫌いなところもありますが、どちらも含めて楽しく暮らしています。みなさんも、もしブリュッセルに来ることがあったら、ぜひ私の好きなところを体験してみてくださいね。
それでは、また次のエピソードでお会いしましょう！
