Market Day Debrief-Satomi Moriguchi

 Today I went to Market  for the first time in NZ. It was a little like the Japanese ones, but more vibrant in NZ.

My best thing of this event was Jewelry stalls, because it was interesting to see all the games that I had never seen before in Japan. Also I felt shopkeepers were friendlier than in Japan, so I learned most of NZ people are easy to get on with!!

I enjoyed looking around the stalls and playing a few games. On this weekend I plan to go Saturday morning market, I know it's a little different than this , but I'm looking forward  to going more!

Fishing makes me happy -LEIL

To be honest, I have almost never fishing in China.  After coming to Dunedin, I started to like fishing. Dunedin is near the sea and there are many suitable fishing spots nearby. I like to go fishing in Port Chalmers on weekends with my friends. I think fishing helps me to release stress, exercise my willpower, and we will have fish to eat.

   Today's market was fun because there were a lot of shops. I saw accessory shops and clothes shops and tried a game, too.  It was the most interesting that many of the accessories were made by people. Both of the students and the sellers seemed to enjoy the market.  I felt this market was one of the interesting cultures for the students and the local people in New Zealand.

In fact, there are so many CCTV cameras all over my country. And I have never been involved in crime. That tells us thanks to them, we can live more peacefully. However, some of them make me uncomfortable. For example, when I realize that someone is watching my movement, shopping habits and myself, I feel scared even if I don’t have nothing to hide. In other words, I worry that someone can identify me if my personal information is leaked.  In short, surveillance technology is important, but I feel that our privacy may be invaded.
