なぜ私はアフリカを「さるく」のか / Why I wandered around Africa. | Susumu Imaizumi | TEDxOsakaU


[applause]

Hello

We are coming forward.

3 years ago I was one lap by land to Africa

It’s also a trip-camping living trip

The journey on land is always fun

Since it is possible to view the world in the same three races and the people who live in the area to walk a local in your own taste

is

The countries of Africa I traveled to are 28 countries

It is about half of the country in Africa

I traveled for about 10 or 10 months, but I still travel only half of the countries

I could not do it.

Now hit in Morocco from the root of the journey is a two-part is the competition today is very Cape

What you lend

This time I will go up north from Cape Town

The circuit with Zip is the goal

I will record the record of this trip

Africa Saruku Yoshihiko

We decided to put together a blog called

Monkey Ku

And I mean walking around in my local Nagasaki dialect

In English it is big but I want to apply a medicine called larm but it is a bit different

I will

It is also walking even more while walking

Is it rather a sense close to one join?

Well today I saw I was leaving Africa

I would like to talk about the gradation

Before that I have to talk about why I first became interested in Africa

I go up to now I Why are you doing Why are you doing the study or Africa that do things Africa

It has attracted without the

In order to be asked this question, I will always be in trouble with answers but today I traced a distant memory

The answer has been found only a little Te

One is this

I had the Japan and the World Cup in South Korea elementary school

There was a class to find out about that country in the classes of social studies at that time

My classmates are Italian, England, Football like Germany and Brazil

I was investigating about famous countries

But I have been looking into Cameroon in this country somehow

Now I can not remember at all But I just wanted to do something a bit different from other people

I think

And then going to junior high school

I was a big fan of local hawks I was keen on pre- autumn

Particularly Valdés hatsurator who was active at the time

You will long for black players such as

When I went on to high school then I was part of the athletics department and was active at the time

I longed for Kenyan runners

So I will encounter a book .

Kenya They are the book on why it is fast

This book includes not only the progressive features of the Kinnians gradually but also the social background that he created

Economical and historical name deeply

It was covered

From this book I am a black player not only from athletes like wise men runners but from there

Widely now as I say and want to know Africa

This is the time immediately that it’s time of 1 year of high school I would say try to enroll in Swahili Department

I decided

And then you will meet another one

That is a trip with Overland

Why was overrun and because I was doing on a television program at that time

I cross Africa from Cairo to Cape Town in 1104 days on a TV program

I tried to do a special edition of the journey over land

I was suddenly interested by seeing this

The I was longing for some style especially camp while slowly slowly rust to

That may well try to examine if only this Africa longitudinal not there is also a journey of Africa around

Beneath also decided that I am that you try to participate in this that

Is there such overland? There is a reason in me for a while

One was that you would like to list Nera riding what I get off

Knowing widely on the continent of Africa rather than becoming specialized in a specific area specialized in one particular area

To have

I wanted to know news

To that end, we are not only a single country in Africa but also widely and slowly with our own eyes

I had to look at Africa, too

The other is my local dialect

It is because I thought that I would like to look around with my own feet as represented by

That is the reason that learn here legs

These two things can be done It was overrun trip

Well I needed two preparations to get out for that over

One is I am a student I do not have any money

So I have to collect money

Of course I worked part-time, but I did another cloud funding

Cloud Funding has recently gained attention as a way to collect money on the Internet

is

And what I needed to do this crowdfunding is the theme of my trip

It is to decide

I made the theme of the trip the history of Africa which is also my specialty

So Specifically it says it has to do

I gathered the textbook of the house in each country I traveled to

Especially focused on historical textbook social studies textbooks

Then what is the history for those living in that area

No, I have made a lot of questions like what is your view of history

Then I learned about the history of Africa from the textbook and listening to local people

Where is your image of Africa?

Before I left this trip I already had learned about Africa and so I have some knowledge of myself

I think that it was there

But in general Africa is uniform

Are not you staying overnight

A similar person lives and eats similar things

And the climate is just as hot

But actually it is different Sudan I traveled was burning more than 53 degrees

Meanwhile, climb up to the summit of Takayama area of ​​Morocco and the highest peak of Africa Tanzania Kilimanjaro

It’s below freezing

Can we express this basic as uniform

It is different

Africa is to be told Fu that he where there is but diversity diversity

A person who has knelt a bit of Africa or who has traveled in Africa

I think those people can sympathize with this very much

However, I would like to add another one to this

It is not only because there are many different things simply due to diversity, but there

It has a gradient

It is not only different from the semi There is the same place There is also it slowly and slowly changing

It was my journey to see it

One of them

It is Chewen of the blue town of Morocco

One street corner of Shaoui in Morocco

I was told by the Berber man I met there

The light blue this blue and’m is the blue sky that do a water blue a Berber faith of target

These Berber Murasa Ueno-cho

This is the city ​​of Egypt

Morocco and Egypt That is far away from the Sahara desert but the same light blue color is used

It is

By the way this is not a Berber but a Nubian house

Language and culture they speak

What I am talking about or what I am eating is somewhat different, but even so

This blue color has a common split left

Why can I do the gradation that I coached

What is the identity of all that I decided to think about a bit more

One of them is here

It is that there is no large livestock

There is a tropical disease south of the belly desert and it is difficult to seek a large value because of tropical diseases

For example it’s easy

Camels can of course be bred in the Sahara desert

In the south of the Sahara desert seek in tropical diseases like this

Also it is difficult to keep horses suitable for long distance travel

Large of two years in addition to it could not quite in the African continent

Instead, such a Dow ship

A sailing ship like that has been in use for a long time

Over a month or two months with such a ship

I left for East Africa to the Indian Ocean

What will happen if large ships are not made or large livestock are not used

People walk by walking and making society

Of course, you can seek livestock such as cattle, lobagia and sheep

However, these livestock seems not to be suitable for long distance travel

This is how I made it at the same speed as the culture was made

I would like to introduce a little episode that I understood because I went to monkeys

It is the gradation which it felt eating

Here the picture in the middle is the chef called Ghu Hefu

Is the staple food called a couple of are in the plastic bag of the white

Thing here was kneaded with beaten with hot water Tao and to and boiling yams and cassava into powder

is

I eat this on something like this during the day

By the way this is South Africa’s

It is food like Pap It is white as well

Just resource amount is here corn different

The taste is a bit different

This Fuu Distance has more taste and it is grinding only for a moment

Further looks are also the same

Here is corn It is the same as Pap in South Africa

However better here is more bland taste

I somehow feel like were in their senses and the share of Kagoshima Kalkan

Well there are similar foods like this

The taste is also different , and the manner of issuing it is also different

Attari also Toka also sour thing which was kneaded this kind of powder in such similar form during the

To do

This is the fun of Africa

Even if it seems to be using the same thing, there is a gradation there

Now that I know anyone who may have the camp do you think

It’s of the four-sided irregularities seen precisely because camped in the land

Or you can see the sound of the wind or the smell of the tree

You can find creatures crawling on the ground

I would like to talk about the gradation I felt while camping and traveling this time

think

One of them is here

It is a highlight when I went kigakoya for the time being pihead for the time being northward

First of all , once you travel a little bit from a dog , you can see where the green has expanded

I will

It is the stage before still here

Richness is still being done there

When you go further north than it gradually gradually

You can find a large amount of water flocks of cattle and goats

We keep breeding in 100 units and 200 units

Then go further north and it will dry again

Then it is this time

You will meet a group of camels

It was spectacular when I met a flock of tubes

Because some people may have not seen cattle well, but the same as human beings

Much of height

However, it will look up completely when it comes to an enjoyment

It around There are very powerful in 6 of big camel

From there I will go north to the belly

What will happen then

Green is growing again

And we will also meet crowds of cows

However, it differs from the herds of cows up to the previous time It was a group of cattle in 100 units before

now

It is quiet.

Even when breeding the same thing, its breeding method has been changed gradually and gradually

I’m coming.

These livestock gradients and natural gradations are also fun to travel in Africa

Well I want everyone to feel such a gradation, but in Africa for a moment

I think that there are many people that it is difficult to go

Of course I want to go to Africa to you as my hope

But I can not go there so please try a trip

I think that it is good even in Japan, especially in the countryside

Please travel around and listen to the person living in that place

Well you may just start with a simple talk but just try to hear a bit deeper story

Please give me

What I there it such know should be on whether the Toka here unique food Toka here unique culture

Or

Please try a little heard

It’s not over with that alone

Please try to go to the next town and then stretched out his leg just a little

Please do the same again

Then I think I can feel a little gradation there

Now it even might be that some people also called it troublesome

People who say so is no longer ginger

Please stand between the Faculty of Engineering Engineering and the Faculty of Science next time

Or between literature department and economics department

It is when the well try standing stone bridge Which is first also between the Hotarugaike Well there

Because there are people going there, you can always see the gradation

Surely he thinks he is different from those in science and basic engineering department

I think that what I am talking about is different

Please be elaborate eyes please let to settle the ear to the difference

Even in distant Africa

Even in the world around my body nearer

Whether you can find a gradation is up to you

Thank you very much
