We delve into the intricate and often humorous interplay between these two neighboring cultures – Norway and Sweden. Much like Newton's laws of thermodynamics, the principles of conversation dynamics between Norwegians and Swedes can be observed and understood through a few key laws:

First Law: The Law of Politeness Conservation
In any conversation between a Norwegian and a Swede, politeness is neither created nor destroyed but merely transferred. Each party carefully navigates the exchange, ensuring that respect and civility remain balanced and intact.

Second Law: The Principle of Understatement Equilibrium
Understatements in Norwegian-Swedish dialogue tend to seek equilibrium. When one party downplays an event or achievement, the other instinctively matches this tone, creating a harmonious balance of modesty and humor.

Third Law: The Entropy of Misunderstandings
As the complexity of conversation increases, so does the potential for misunderstandings. These are often caused by the subtle nuances and cultural references unique to each nation. Yet, this entropy is often countered by the shared history and mutual respect between Norwegians and Swedes, leading to resolution and clarity.

Join us as we explore these dynamics and uncover the fascinating, and often understated, art of Norwegian-Swedish communication.

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
いよいよこのPodcastが100回目をむかえました！👏
もしいつも聞いてくれている方がいたらとても嬉しいです。
ありがとうございます。

これからも、今まで通りマイペースに進めていこうと思います。よろしくお願いします。

では、100回目のPodcastは、私がこれからしたいことについて話そうと思います。

私は結婚していて妻がいます。
これから数年の間に、妻と一緒に一度海外に住みたい！と考えています。タイやオーストラリア、カナダ、オランダ、ドイツなどいろいろと興味のある国があります。まずは来年一度、その中のどこかの国へ、旅行で行ってみたいと思います。

私も妻も2人とも日本語教師の資格をとりましたので、その国の日本語学校で働くか、オンラインレッスンをしていくか(どちらにしてもオンラインレッスンは続ける予定です)、他には海外で日本食のビジネスを始めるか、日本人向けに観光ガイドをするか、などなどいろいろと考えたりしています。

まずは旅行で行ってみて、自分たちの目でみて、その国の雰囲気を感じてみないとわからないので、来年から何回か海外に旅行してみようと思います。海外で仕事が決まればすぐいけるんですけど、そんなに簡単ではないですね。これを聞いている海外の方で、日本語できる人を探している人がいたら、ぜひ連絡ください！

話を戻しますが、なぜ海外に住みたいかというと、人生は一回きりなので、後悔しない生き方がしたいからです。海外に住みたかったな、思って死ぬのはイヤなので、一度は住んでみたい、と思います。それから、海外に住むことで、日本の良さにたくさん気づけると思っています。今は想像だけの良さしかわかっていません。ですので、実感を持って、日本の良さを知りたいと思います。あともう一つ。自分たちの可能性を広げたいからです。日本でしか生活したことがないので、海外で生活する、ということが選択肢にないんですね。でも一度経験すると、意外とできるんだ、ということがわかると思うので、一気に視野が広がると思います。英語ももっと本気で勉強すると思います。今もしてます。

そんな新しいチャンスを見つけたい、という思いもあって、海外に行ってみたい、と考えています。

もしこの国オススメだよ！とかあれば教えてください！
ネットでもある程度調べることはできますが、1番良いのは、住んでいる人から直接聞くことだと思っています。


ということで、100回目のPodcastということで、これからしてみたいことについて話しました。

最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
これからもよろしくお願いします！

ではまた！
