私は観光地として好きな場所は沢山あるがそこに住みたいと思ったことは一度もない。あるとすれば日本ではなくテレビ番組で見たような欧米の街ぐらいだ。テレビの番組などでヨーロッパの町で現地の人に自分の町の好きなところをインタビューする場面をよく見るが、その受け答えを聞くと彼らの多くは自分の町に誇りを持っていて、そこ地ある歴史なんかも詳しく語ることができる人が多いように思う。つまり私が言いたいのは、日本人は欧米人に比べて自分の住む町に誇りを持っている人は少ないのではないかという事だ。

There are many tourist sites that I love, but I've never felt like living there. If there is one, it's not in Japan but cities in Europe seen on TV programs. I often see on TV programs when local people in European cities are asked what they like about their cities, it seems to me that many of them answer they're proud of their own cities and are able to introduce their history in details. What I want to say is compared to Europeans and Americans, not many Japanese people are proud of their own cities they live in.
