Ron McFarlandの Personal Journey (3-a) : 人生初めての長旅 - ヨーロッパそしてイスラエル(1)

メキシコから帰国し、イスラエルとヨーロッパの旅に・・・・・・・

Shortly after returning from Mexico, I traveled to Israel and Europe for the first time. Those were the days when college students would hitchhike from country to country with a pack on their back. So, I borrowed a pack, bought a discount air ticket, and a Euro-pass train ticket for one month, and I was ready to go. I remember the Euro Pass was US$85. Today, it is over US$300. I could take night trains and sleep on the train and not have to go to a hotel to save money.

First, I flew to London and spent four days with Jimmy Chan whom I mentioned in Chapter #2. He was at the London School of Economics at that time working on a PhD in Mathematics as I said. At his place, I took a bath in the smallest bath I’ve ever seen in my life. Also, he gave me good directions on what to see and how to get around on the “Tube” or “Underground” as they say. For us in the USA, it’s a subway. In those days my vocabulary was improving too. I learned what a “WC” was. I learned that “being pissed,” means being drunk in England, not angry (as an American would think) and many other important terms.

Ronさんのセミナーいかがですか。

皆さんがおやりになっている勉強会などに出張し講演させていただきます。

ただし、Ronさんが住んでいる東京都大田区から日帰りできるところとさせてください。

もっとも台湾でも日帰りは可能ですが。
