鎌田祐菜の留学レポート

 

 I am going to talk about my precious experience in Australia. I studied in Adelaide for a month. So, it’s the capital city of southern Australia. It’s very urban, safe and clean. I had a lot of opportunity to communicate with many local people. Especially I talked with my host family every day. The member of my host family was mother, father and two brothers. They treated me as their daughter.  So I enjoyed home stay a lot. One day I made omelet containing fried rice for my host family. (Australia has only omelet). They were very glad to it. They said to me “Thank you, Yuna, it is very delicious.” And my host brother said to me “thank you” in Japanese. That thing made me very happy. I think my host family was the best.

I made dinner with my host mother many times. That time was very nice for me. During making dinner, I talked about many things with my host mother. For example, about today’s school, difference between Japan and Australia and others. And after the dinner, my host mother, father and I saw “Master Chef” on TV. It was a cooking show. During seeing TV we ate ice cream. I like Australian ice cream. It was very sweet. I went to many places with my host mother in Adelaide. Rundle mall is the biggest shopping mall in Adelaide, I like to go where shopping. And my host mother liked to go to shopping too. So, we went to many kinds of shopping malls. And I took the street car to go to sea. I think Australian street car is bigger than Sapporo street car. I saw the wild seal in the sea. My host mother said to me, “You are a lucky girl! Because it is very rare events.” When I heard it, I felt happy.

I went to Roma Mitchell Secondary College in Adelaide. I thought the school was very big. There were various races at school. I made some friends there. It was good experience for me to communicate with them. Because I had to use English to communicate. At school some classmates often helped my friend and me. For example, “Can I help you?” or “We are going to go to the gym at this lesson.” When we don’t know where to take lesson. So I was helped by many students in that school. When I took Japanese lesson, many students talked with me from them. It was very interesting. So, I made some friend at Japanese class and still keep in touch with them by using Instagram. I want to meet them again. We had a buddy. But I think she didn’t like us. So, she didn’t tell us about school information. So, I had trouble because of it. I hoped to be friend with my buddy. But, it was very difficult for me.

When I ate lunch, I ate with two Japanese friend and Pakistani friend.

This time I learned a lot of things and to fun in Australia. I thought very scary about to study Australia. Before I go to Australia. I really worried about host family and school. But it was very exciting to study in Australia. And I want to go there again.

 

これからオーストラリアで経験したことを話します。

私はアデレードに一ヶ月留学してきました。そこは南オーストラリアの首都で、とても安全で綺麗なところです。私は、現地の人と話す機会が沢山ありました。特に、私は私のホストファミリーと毎日話しました。家族構成は、マザーとファザーと兄弟が二人いて、彼らは私のことを娘として受け入れてくれました。なので、私は楽しい生活をおくれました。ある日、私はホストファミリーにオムライスを作りました。（オーストラリアにムレツはあるけどオムライスはない）

彼らはすごく喜び、”ゆうな、ありがとう。これはとてもおいしいよ。そしてブラザーが”ありがとう”と日本語で言ってくれて嬉しかったです。私は、マザーと沢山晩ご飯を作りました。作っている間私はマザーと学校についての話や、日本とオーストラリアの違いについて話しました。ご飯をたべた後は、マザーとファザーと私でおいしいアイスを食べながら”マスターシェフ”という料理番組を見ました。

私とマザーはお買い物が好きで、一緒にランドルモールというショッピングモールへ行ったり、オーストラリアの市電に乗り、海へ行ったりしました。海では、野生のアザラシを見ることができ、マザーにラッキーガール！と呼ばれたので嬉しかったです。

　私はアデレードの”Roma Mitchell Secondary College” という学校に通っていました。そこはとても大きくて自由な所でした。私はそこで、様々な国の人と出逢い、話しました。私は将来英語を使い、色々な人と関わりたいのですごく良い経験になりました。私が困っているとき友達が”大丈夫？”や、”次の授業では、体育館に行くよ”とおしえてくれ、すごく助けてもらいました。バディーと話せない分友達を作れて良かったです。

　私はオーストラリアに来る前はホストファミリーや学校に対して不安しかなかったけど、いざ行ってみるととても楽しかったです。なので、もう一度オーストラリアに行きたいです。
