4月23日は○○の日

個人的には幼稚園時代からの友達と大学時代からの友達の誕生日。
Cちゃん、I君、おめでとう!

それと、日本では知名度は低いけれど、カタルーニャ地方から始まった男女間で赤いバラや本を贈りあったりするバレンタインに似た風習があって日本とスペインでは「サンジョルディの日」と呼ばれたりしています。
国際的にも、本に関係する日として考えられているそう。

詳しくはコチラ↓

そしてコロンビアでは。
「サンジョルディの日」とは呼ばれてはいないけれど、「本の日」、「言語の日」と呼ばれています。

この日にあわせて、首都ボゴタでは Feria del Libro と呼ばれるとっても大きな本の市(お祭り)が開かれます。

今年は行くことができないけれど、昨年行きました。
10数箇所のパビリオンには様々なジャンルに分けられた本の展示・販売や芸術作品の展示などがされてます。

昨年は折り紙・日本の漫画・日本語で名前を書くブースなどもあり、コロンビアに着いたばかりの私には、日本の文化がこんなに浸透しているなんて嬉しい、と誇りに思ったものでした。

日本語で名前を書くサービス
こんな感じで日本語で名前を書いて売っています。(100円から150円くらい)
大学で勉強したり日本語を教えているの日本人の男性もいました。
この「日本語で名前を書く」サービスは他でも結構目にする商売で、かなり人気が高いです。

その中には1年ごとにある国を招待して、その国にまつわる展示が大々的にされます。
昨年はチリ、今年はなんと日本!

実は今年は「日本・コロンビア間での友好100周年☆」、という記念すべき年なので、それで招待されたそう。

今年の初めには、その展示に私達JICAボランティアも参加するかも、という話があったのだけれど、その話は流れてしまい、、、。
とっても残念(涙)
日本のブースがどんな感じになったのかは、上記Webから後日見てみようと思ってます。

さて、私の配属先でもこの日にあわせてちょっとしたイベントがありました。
それにまつわる話を書くと長くなるので続きは後日。
