釜山─恬靜的家庭生活

利用口試結束，工作前的空檔，我訂了前往首爾的機票，飛了兩個小時抵達一個陌生的土地，探訪的卻是親愛的好友。

第一餐吃的是外送炸雞

炸雞有兩種口味，分別是酥炸和糖醋(年糕)醬，搭配的醃蘿蔔、酸黃瓜、水果盤和黃芥末。光是吃炸雞就跟台灣差很多了！(胡椒鹽在那兒...)

由於行程安排的順利，我們決定隔天先前往釜山Busan遊玩，之後再回首爾。這次在釜山，拜雪芬的好人緣之賜，有幸住進了當地人阿善的家中，接受阿善爸媽的款待。

路上隨處可見軍人，迷彩服也是窄身

搭乘的高鐵KTX車廂，是法國TGV系統，並且可以無線上網

我不是韓劇迷，所以沒有一些偶像劇場景想要拜訪，在者對於韓國文化一點都不熟悉，(也沒什麼動力想要了解)，所以行程都是走到哪算到哪，再加上心血來潮的下車、轉車，我和雪芬常常就繞一大圈路，想在找到出乎意料的東西。

抵達阿善家的第一餐

阿善的父母很好客，我們抵達的吃的迎賓餐是鐵板烤肉，搭配數不清的小菜，還有好吃的紫米五穀飯和海鮮醬湯。家庭式料理的口味比較清淡，而且小菜想吃多少就有多少，哈哈！很幸運的兩個人。
抵達釜山的當天，因為米雷颱風直撲韓國，所以下大雨。釜山就像是台灣的高雄市，是韓國第二大的都市，而且也是個海港都市。所以你可以想像到高雄玩卻下大雨的懊惱心情= =。於是我們先去逛了夢時代廣場，不不不，是新世界百貨公司，號稱是全世界最大的百貨公司。(吐槽：其實也沒有特別大，只是拿mall等級的坪數經營百貨公司而已！)

在百貨公司用iPad找泰式按摩

我們兩個都不是shopping咖，也沒有銀彈可以sha，所以就泡在百貨公司的星巴克無線上網。為了彌補李文欽放我鴿子，沒有到泰國海邊按摩的遺憾，我們決定來找找韓國有什麼按摩店。沒想到也是有做黑的XD
找到一堆奇怪的sports massage，很害怕是運動健將來按摩我們兩個軟趴趴的骨頭。加上跟媽媽約好回家吃飯的時間，所以什麼都沒買的乾脆回家吃飯，省錢！

媽媽做的人蔘雞，好好吃

媽媽晚上做了人參雞，童子雞裡面包糯米、百果、紅棗以及食用人參，湯底用昆布熬過，喝起來很鮮甜，加上壓力鍋的高超功力，雞肉吃起來入味卻不會軟爛。對於淋雨淋了整天之後的我們可以說是一個很棒的食補。

小菜新花樣─醃蒜頭 (讚！)

第二天釜山依舊是下雨，在雪芬查閱過聽說很準的韓國氣象局網站後，我們前往了釜山北方的小鎮─慶州看看那邊有沒有好玩的。

慶州的市場

慶州就像是台南一樣，是個有傳統建築物與古蹟的地方。看看上面那張照片，根本就是台灣中南部地區的市場嘛!!

蒜頭放在地上賣

梅子

中午吃的是「孫偷夫妻給」就是嫩豆腐火鍋。跟台灣吃得不太一樣，因為裡面有加節瓜，比較沒有放海鮮的東西。還有醃過的鹹豬肉。

嫩豆腐鍋

好多拌菜

好像到了韓國，除了瞎拚之外就是吃東西了。韓國這邊的物價比台灣高點，平均吃一餐要價5000W，也就是大約130台幣的價錢。我點的嫩豆腐火鍋就是5000W。一杯星巴克冰沙的價錢約在5600W，大約是140台幣，其實比台灣貴。最便宜的食物是路邊攤，一串關東煮也只要13台幣而已。稍後會介紹。

佛國寺

我們到了一間號稱是歷史悠久的廟。佛國寺。對於共同屬於大中華文化圈的我們來說，這樣的建築物沒有什麼文化衝擊可言吧:D (或者是沒有導遊介紹，或是沒有香可以跟著拜，所以兩位年輕人不知道在這間廟幹嘛)

模仿門環獅子好了 .....

這種觀光客的照片一定要來一發。繼佛羅倫斯的金豬後，佑在韓國看到了金豬仔，我看愛錢這種文化應蓋世跑片世界大同小異吧~

路邊的蓮花池

草草結束了廟的參訪之後，我們到了路邊的白河蓮花池拍幾張照。聽說這邊也是個著名景點，不過隨便了。景點可以說比台灣還無聊，所以直接跳到吃東西。雪芬的朋友說慶州有一間很有名的冷麵，叫我們一定要吃吃看！

口齒留香的冷面啊!!

不得不說這盤冷麵真的很優！蛋皮、小黃瓜、瘦肉、甜紅醬和QQ的麵泡在冰塊裡面，帶著酸酸的醬汁，是夏天吃不下午餐的好涼拌。

要記得用剪刀剪麵喔 ;D

由於下午我們迷路了，繞了大半圈才回到釜山市區。決定到素有釜山中山大學的釜山大附近商圈逛逛。

！體操姿勢來一發！

路邊攤的售價還蠻便宜的老實說，但幾乎每攤都會賣類似的東西。關東煮啊、飯糰啊、炒年糕啊、米血腸之類的。

關東煮寫真三連發。

這次受人所託去吃了關東煮。韓國的路邊攤使用方式跟台灣或日本不太一樣。基本上道了攤子就=自己伸手拿東西吃，因為攤內都不會有位子所以大家就站著吃完，然後付錢閃人。很有韓國人剽悍的文化啊!!!我吃的三個東西分別是包有乾辣椒的魚板(辣！爽！)、蒟蒻塊(減肥用)、(看起來很像豆皮的)魚板。東西吃起來就是把食材串到竹籤上用昆布高湯混在一起煮的味道。

我點的血腸和軟骨組合

血腸裡面好像是包蒟蒻米，而不是一般的糯米，所以吃起來QQ的。

(待續)

被搶

這一篇網誌原本是沒有要公開的，因為怕我父母以及家人擔心未來歐洲之旅的行程。不過經過這次經驗之後，告訴我們人不可以沒有警備之心，就算你對某個地方再熟也是一樣的。

一年一度的里昂燈火節幾乎是里昂全城的大事，整座城市聽說會用絢爛的燈火裝飾，平常已經看習慣的建築物將會有不同風貌的展現。因此今年我邀約了在威尼斯念書的Flora來看燈。

第一天晚上Flora抵達里昂，我們跟台灣同學一起吃麻辣鍋，並且臨時起意的玩起了AIESEC的beer game，一切都很美好，一直到第二天晚上，我們前往位於Fouviere的聖母院山上，從山上觀看整個燈火通明的里昂市區給我們許多美好的回憶，想說既然觀看完整體環境之後，就要到市中心走走。聽說Pony有從山上走到山下的經驗，所以我們就打算照他的路線走，在山上稍微找了一下路之後就開始往市中心前進。

走著走著，進入了比較小型的街道，沒有岔路，就一條直直的樓梯路從山上通往山下，兩旁都是住家的牆壁。因為燈光比較昏暗又沒有人，所以我把相機收到大衣外套內，然後我們看到迎面走過來了三個法國男生。他們好像也是要到山上的聖母院。看到有人走上來，我們便比較放心了，應該是沒有走錯路。於是就繼續走…

約莫兩分鐘後，我們看到窗台上坐著兩個青少年，身旁有三罐Jack Daniels’s 的Whisky，想說不要招惹是非，我們便靠著邊邊，遠離他們。但是他們忽然跳下窗台來，擋住我們的路。

"Give me your phone!"

一開始以為在開玩笑，我們就說不要，然後就往另外一個方向走去，Flora走在我後面，此時兩個青少年就一人擋住一個，把我們堵住，繼續跟我們要電話，或者是要錢。我們此時開始緊張了，因為路邊都沒有人可以求救，只有一條通往人煙比較稀少的山區以及不知道是不是正確通往市區的路。

堵住Flora的少年此時伸手向Flora的包包搶去，Flora大叫"高銘佳"，我一回頭便趕緊把包包搶回來，那兩位青少年似乎沒有意識到我們會有反抗的行為，稍微愣了一下。我趕緊叫"Flora快跑！" 因為我意識到自己根本沒有辦法保護她，情況反而會更糟糕。她也很機靈的往山下跑去，就剩下我和兩個青少年在原地。

那兩個青少年身高都比我ㄎㄨㄞˇ，感覺都比我壯，我脫險的勝算其實不大。感覺不像是法國人，而是海外的移民子弟。剩下我們三人時，我一直想要找機會跑開，但是始終沒有機會鑽空隙。他們開始伸手摸向我的大衣口袋，想要找到值錢的東西。我把我的錢包、手機和相機都放在比較內部的口袋，所以一時之間找不到東西。

其中一個人忽然伸手往我的脖子拐去，然後我就被壓倒在地板上了。那時的狀況是我被其中一個人制壓，另外一個人在我身上摸東摸西試圖找到東西。我那時的想法是我絕對不要讓我的東西被搶走，尤其是相機，裡面有很多我的回憶。我試圖掙扎，但始終被控制。直到我注意到旁邊有罐他們放在地上的Whisky。

於是我把Whisky拿過來往地上砸碎，手拿著破酒瓶向他們攻擊做假動作。

他們看到這樣的舉動也被嚇了一大跳，沒想到一個亞洲人會這樣aggressive，就往後退了幾步，我看到他們的距離夠遠，就把酒瓶往他們身上砸之後馬上轉身往山下跑。後來發現這動作是錯誤的，因為他們看我身上沒有武器之後就轉頭回來追我。

我們就這樣進行了約莫5分鐘的貓追老鼠遊戲，我還可以聽到他們在我身旁呼嘯，其實我心裡嚇都嚇死了，趕快跑跑跑跑跑，能夠跑越遠越好。看到路便比較寬，然後有其他人出現在路上，我看到Flora神情緊張的在跟一個法國人用義大利文求教。就趕緊跑到她身邊。那時我的表情應該使很蒼白，但是我不能讓Flora慌張下去，就趕緊把自己的恐慌壓下去。路人問我有沒有掉任何東西，我說沒有，他就說這樣報警也沒有用，因為沒有損失，而整個燈火節的警力都很吃緊，所以他們不會來。

就這樣，我和Flora默落的走向人群，剛剛那半小時的事情讓我們挑戰了人生驚恐的最大限度，我們都需要一點酒精的慰藉。我打給buddy，Benjamin，問他我該如何是好，結果答案依舊是一樣，沒有財物損失報警也沒用。我們默默地走向Vioux Lyon的市區，街上滿滿的都是為了看燈火節而興奮的人群。我們很害怕再走向沒有人的地方，寧可待在人潮聚集之處，但也不願意他們靠我們太近。

我打給Romain，一個會說中文的Lyonnaise，跟他講了從頭到尾的事發經過，他好像也愛莫能助。然後我傳了簡訊給Mathias，說我們剛剛被搶了，請幫我們準備酒，我們需要壓驚。他在第一時間打電話過來給我，問我們有沒有受傷、有沒有財物的損失，我們在哪裡，需不需要他到市區來找我們？我回答他我們在地鐵站旁的咖啡廳休息，等等公車一到就會回去，旁邊很多人，應該沒有問題。

我和Flora坐在最靠近地鐵站的咖啡廳裡，他寫著明信片，我則默默地想起剛剛事發的經過，我們兩個都嚇壞了。真的，真的嚇壞了。我對於里昂的喜愛瞬間減到了最低，很難想像自己把里昂當作家鄉的一天，居然會有這樣的事情發生。

Mathias又打了電話過來，叫我們小心那兩個青少年會不會跟蹤我們，繼續要搶我們的東西。我說應該不會在人很多的地方搶劫，但是我們會特別注意。此外她說如果我們需要可以打電話給他，他會來接我們上山。我想，朋友做到這種境界可以說是非常感心，沒想到我在法國可以結交到這樣的好朋友，真的很幸運。

11點，我們回到宿舍，Mexican party仍在進行，大家都知道了這件事情，尤其是聽到了我拿破酒瓶反抗的行動之後紛紛向我致敬。我感到精神異常的疲憊，只想要暫時忘記這樣的鳥事。Toby跟我說，下次如果他們要東西就直接給他們，因為我們不像Mathias或者是其他人一樣壯碩高大，如果反抗不成功只有被揍得份。此外那兩個青少年沒有拿刀拿槍，就是因為如果警察來，他們可以用"我們在玩"做藉口。

所以Mexica night那天我玩得很兇，跟我在Galion認識的朋友度過了最美好的夜晚，但心中始終有個陰影，一直到我在前往Amsterdam的路上，那30分鐘的廠景始終在我腦中重播，然後有無數的"假如"上演著。假如他們有刀，假如我跑不掉……

這種心理的陰影應該只能慢慢療育，我想在慕尼黑見到人性之美好之後，在里昂，上天教我的是另外一課：隨時保持戒心。也讓我反省原來在危機發生時我是沒有能力保護自己的狀況，就算我當了一年兵之後還是只能束手就擒。

兩天之後即將離開里昂，我的心情很複雜。

(International) Christmas dinner

We celebrated Christmas last Saturday, which was a little bit early but since it’s December, the holiday season, we celebrate anything anytime. Walter from Italy and Paul from Germany came out this idea, so that they proposed this event on Facebook, and almost 50 people raised their hands to join this international dinner. They decorated the ping-pong room with Christmas style, and we even got a real Christmas tree in da house!

The delegates were asked to prepared Christmas dishes of their nationalities, the purpose was for each other to know the traditions of exotic Christmas and catered 50 people, that’s a lot of stomachs. As one of the countries who don’t celebrate Christmas, we Taiwanese students prepared braised pork and tomato eggs, the family dishes for them.

There were so many cuisine on the tables so that it’s hard to decide which ones to take. Lukas and Karol gave me their traditional soup made of pickles and sausage, which I loved alot. And I took Mexican chicken roll and duck from I-don’t-know-where.

People were sat with friends from the same nationality. Belgium, German, Norwegian, Danish, Italiten and Taiwanese zones. You could heard different languages in each zones. I sat with Italien students, Federica and Federico (they share the same name!), during the meal, we talked a lot about Italy and they taught me a lot of USEFUL Italien vocabularies or gestures.

After the feast, the staffs set up the table with candle lights, and put the record on, the dining room became a place to chill and dance. It was amusing to meet different students. There were so many in-dorm parties in the semester but this one was the first one I joined.

We had a hight time. It’s a pity that I have to leave next Monday.

Snowy Southern German: Bumpped into the last day

Last day in Munich, last day of the tour. I became alone, a loner walking on the most gorgeous road of Munich. It still snow a lot, most of the roads were cover with ice and snow, made the road slippery.

 

There were so many Christmas trees on the roads, and the seasonal reduction was started on for people to buy Christmas gifts.

I bumpped into an anonymous church and found the inside decoration was splendid. It was St. Michel’s Church.

The Jesuit church of St Michael in Munich is the largest Renaissance church north of the Alps. The style of the building had an enormous influence on Southern German early baroque architecture.

The other famous church of Munich was Frauenkirche, a most famous landmark of Munich city. There is a unique footprint.

The Frauenkirche (full name Dom zu unserer lieben Frau, "Cathedral of Our Dear Lady") is the cathedral of the Archbishop of Munich and Freising. It is a landmark and is considered a symbol of the Bavarian State Capital.

The church towers are widely visible because of local height limits. The city administration prohibits buildings with a height exceeding 109 metres (358 ft) in the city center—within the middle ring. Since November 2004, this prohibition has been provisionally extended outside the ring. As a result, no buildings may be built in the city over the aforementioned height. The south tower can be climbed and offers a unique view of Munich and the nearby Alps.

The devile’s footprint

Teufelsschritt, or Devil's Footstep

Much of the interior was destroyed during WWII, and even the restored parts still look plain by comparison. However, an attraction that can still be found is the Teufelsschritt, or Devil's Footstep, at the entrance. This is a black mark resembling a footprint with a small hooked tail at the heel, which, according to legend, was where the devil stood when he curiously regarded and ridiculed the windowless church that Halsbach had built. In fact, it is a large casting in the square base plate, and none of the side windows can be seen from the spot when one looks to the high altar.

In another version of the legend, the devil made a deal with the builder: no windows were to be built in the church. The clever builder, however, tricked the devil by positioning columns so that the windows were not visible from the spot where the devil stood in the foyer. When the devil discovered that he had been tricked, he could not enter the already consecrated church. The devil could only stand in the foyer and stomp his foot furiously, which left the dark footprint that remains visible in the church's entrance today.

Legend also says the devil then rushed outside and manifested its evil spirit in the wind that furiously raged around the church.

Somebody told me that Munich is one of the richest city of Germany, so the cost of living is the highest one. But nontheless, the food here is much cheaper than Lyon. A lot of people aske me compare Germany and France, which one I like more, the thing is that Germany is great, people are friendly and speak in English, and transporation system is more convenient but if I were in Germany, I would never meet so many great people in EM!

The other day while we were discussed about the impressions of Asian girls toward European guys, the thing is that: Asian girls have special fantasy to dudess from England or France, but to Germany? Sorry, not a good one. It’s kind of funny.

I just rambled on the snowy street, sometimes take my camera out to take pictures, I like this kind of feeling, so careless and free.

 

I saw there were many statues alone the road, but there’s only one was exaggerated decorated with many photos of Micheal Jackson. Bazzard!

When the night came, I walked to the bus station, waiting for the bus to go back. Little did I know that there would be something expected!

Car crash!

While I sat at the front seat and tried to get something sleep in the mid-night, I saw the truck in front of us loose its control on the iced road and our bus driver tried hard to brake.

But there was no enough distance for our bus to stop, so they kissed, very firecely, until the whole window broken. Passengers on the bus were shocked not knowing what to do, meanwhile the bus driver was professional, he asked “Everyone’s OK?” and called the bus company first hand, and then the police. The ambulance came 17 minutes later and the police came 30 minutes later. I was impressive by the efficiency of the german governmental system.

I texted Alison for comfort, and texted Mathias, Tobias and Pascal (my german friends) asked them if there’s anything that I can do. The bus were full of high school students, they planned to visit Paris but the accident happened so that they have to cancle the program. We talked and share foods together.

As if we were partying. The rest of the trip was safe and sound, except we waited for the transfer bus in the snowy midnight again for 2 hours. I slept on the other bus  with bad quality, and the next morning I arrived Lyon, I went directly to the office of Turkey immagration.
