似乎是從小教育的關係,在台灣總是會有「不要隨便跟陌生人交談」的想法
這就不外乎怕遇到壞人啦!會有人給你騙錢、不懷好意、殺害等等
(以前小時候爸媽還有說什麼會有被陌生人拖去玉米田殺害的事件
,我住台中市內、壓根找不到玉米田這個東西,想說壞人也拖太遠了吧)
在幾次國外旅遊的經驗中(美國、日本等),發現當地人都很喜歡跟我聊天(自助旅行)
無論是我拿旅遊書問路、告知完在那裡後會再哈啦個10分鐘
更直接的是在路上走路就會有熱情的市民過來問我從哪來、要去哪等等的
或吃飯吃到一半,隔壁桌的就突然跟我開槓起來
這樣的機會讓旅途的樂趣增色不少,覺得大家相當熱情也很友善
(也是讓我對該地方的印象加分不少)
但是我回國後,發現要跟不認識的台灣人哈啦似乎不太容易
可能是我太放不開、也可能是對方沒什麼興趣
更可能是因為我不在旅途中(這可能是主因、因為心態不再playful)
幾年前知道ptt有car-pool之後就強力推薦給大家,但是週遭所及都害怕「危險」
這次去日本住了類似青年旅館的地方,與許多各國朋友認識與分享、也是相當多的樂趣
之前去聽了couchsurfing的說明,計畫下次出國就靠它了
但是這兩種住宿形式,許多朋友直呼「好有趣唷」
可是再追問,卻都沒有勇氣去嘗試。還是認為住旅館比較安全
我很認真地在想,是不是台灣太可怕,所以我們還是不要
「上陌生人的車、住陌生人的家」?
我知道世界各地都還是會有宵小,自身安全很重要
但是這樣聽起來,怎麼覺得我的朋友都沒什麼「認識異地朋友」的勇氣
我在跟我爸媽談上述的撘車與借宿方式,他們也是說「寧可住花錢也不要遇到風險」
陌生人、有這麼可怕嗎?
不曉得要討論什麼、只是有感而發。
