UPDATE 18th May 2021: My business idea for the eco-friendly platform of restaurant meal subscriptions, "Meal Plan", is now on Fundwise crowdfunding campaign as part of the Prototron competition programme. You can support Team Yurina from <<here>> !
On my first appearance on TV3 Duubel, I simply said that I don’t know from where in Estonia I can buy fresh fish. There were no planned dialogues or list of questions, so that was all I could say in that moment within the range of Estonian words I knew in my 12th month of learning this language.
But since then, I decided in my mind that whenever someone stereotypically assumes that I make and eat sushi everyday simply because I am Japanese, I would bounce back the same level of stereotypical statement in a joking way, like: “Tubli, sa oled eestlane! No-nii, sa teed ja sööd sülti iga päev. Lihtsalt, jaa?” (Cool, you are Estonian! Then, you make and eat sült [pulled pork in jelly] everyday. Easily, yeah?) |
