【看CP學英文】來自墨西哥的Jeorge (墨西哥名字:Bjœrgë)在台灣就讀於政治大學IMBA研究所,在台灣已經2年,才剛剛於六月畢業,問及他在台灣最喜歡的地方,他直言是大型家居用品連鎖店IKEA

Jeorge from Mexico has been in Taiwan for the past two years. He graduated from National Chengchi University’s IMBA program this month. When asked about his favorite place in Taiwan, however, he says it’s the furniture chain store IKEA.

「最近我又去了趟台灣的IKEA,這是我第三次前往台灣的IKEA,第一次來是將近2年前當我來台灣求學,需要添購家用品,例如床墊、寢具、碗盤和刀叉等等。因此當我又來到這,我不免感到一陣懷念,想起約翰.藍儂說:『生活,就是當你忙著做其他計劃時,發生在你身上的事。(“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans”)』」他說。

Jeorge said that he recently revisited IKEA, the third time since coming to Taiwan. His first time was when he first got here and needed furniture. In a moment of nostalgia, he remembers John Lennon’s “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”

對於他而言,他並不真的只把IKEA或其他大型家具和家居用品店當成商店,而是休閒遊憩的好地點。|For him, IKEA and other large furniture stores are leisure spots for relaxing.(圖/Jeorge提供)

對於他而言,他並不真的只把IKEA或其他大型家具和家居用品店當成商店,而是休閒遊憩的好地點。「我喜歡IKEA給人一種不單只是賣傢俱,而是大型展示空間的模樣,讓消費者能夠看到傢俱如何真實擺設在家中的畫面。

For him, IKEA and other large furniture stores are leisure spots for relaxing. He added that IKEA’s open store design offers customers the ability to imagine how particular furniture fit into their homes.

除此之外,讓消費者試用產品,由於展場空間十分大,當人們逛累了還能稍作休息,像是舒服地坐在沙發上,就像我和我朋友一樣。我覺得展示人員用真的書本裝飾展示空間是一件十分有趣的事,而且我看到的還都是瑞典文書本。

In addition, people are allowed to test the furniture and rest on the couches when they are tired from shopping. The decorations for books are also very interesting, even finding Swedish books in the showrooms, he said.

不過他也笑著表示台灣有許多美麗的名勝景點,只是生活在高溫多雨的台北,自己不只是旅客更是生活圈的一份子,因而相較於觀光景點更喜歡台灣人帶他去的家具展示店。雖然很少前往大型家具展示店,但每次來都很難忘。甫畢業的他因為喜歡台灣,已決定留在台灣深耕,努力工作。

However, he remarks that Taiwan has plenty of beautiful sights and locations. Although he rarely visits furniture stores, each experience is hard to forget. Since he loves Taiwan, he has decided to stay and work hard.
