One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Yaaay! How can i dare to say this fucking amazing feelings to everybody? Even if I've got miserable pain every moment, Desperately didn't know what to do, i never gave up for this time. It's tremendously moving ever in my whole life. Definitely I've made it 820km by walk from Saint Jean pied de port to here only during 25days!! Unfortunately, at the same time, it has meaning that my Camino will be end as soon. But i wouldn't have mind i won't stop in here. Cheers my Camino mate with full honor

날이 좋지 않았다. 급하게 트램을 타고 복잡한 거리를 빠져나와 아시아 지역으로 향하는 페리를 타기 위해 sirkeci 페리 역에 도착했다. 비바람이 치고 파도는 거셌다. 앙카라로 간다는 기대감에 무거운 짐을 드는 것은 문제되지 않았다. 그렇지만 스페인에서 새로 산 캐리어는 이미 한 쪽 다리가 부서져서 우스꽝스러워 보였다. 어찌하다보니 나는 페리에 타 있었고 페리 안에서 만난 미국 선교사 친구들의 도움으로 아시아 지역 kadıköy 지하철역까지 무사히 왔다. 이제 시작이었다. 1시간 가까이 주황색 좌석이 인상적인 지하철을 타고 maltepe 역에 내려서 pendik 역이 어디냐고 지하철 매표소 직원에게 물어보고 나가서 봉고차 같은 하얀색 버스를 타고... 가까스로 타게 된 그 버스에서는 터키의 화폐 리라의 개념을 잘 몰라 얼마를 내야할지 몰라 50리라를 꺼낸 나의 모습과 터키어를 몰라서 어버버거리며 어찌할 줄 모르는 나의 당황스러움을 지켜보고 있는 사람들의 웃음을 마주하고 있었다. 그들 눈에는 난 갑자기 나타난 정신없는 이방인이었다. 더 웃긴건 그 버스는 pendik역으로 가지 않는 버스였고 기사 아저씨는 나를 내려주면서 밑으로 쭉 내려가라는 손짓을 했다. 그리고 20분을 캐리어를 들고 뛰어 내려가 지하도를 통과해 도착했다. 늦지 않으려고 엄청 뛰어왔는데 앙카라행 YHT 기차는 3시간 지연되었다고 방송이 나왔고 난 온 몸에 땀범벅이 된 채로 주저앉았다. 이스탄불 시내에서 Pendik역까지 오는데 3시간이 걸리다니.. 그냥 악명 높은 이스탄불 택시타고 갈껄.. 난 아직도 이 날을 생생히 기억한다.

İyi bir gün değildi. Acilen tramvaya binip kalabalık sokaklardan kurtulup Asya tarafına hareket eden vapura binmek için Sirkeci feribot iskelesine vardım. Rüzgar ve yağmur çok şiddetliydi. Aslında bu durumun Ankara'ya gitme heyecanımı kötü bir şekilde bastırsa da sorun olmadı. Yine de İspanya' dan daha yeni satın aldığım seyahat çantamın bir bacağı bozulduğu için gülünç görünüyordu. Her nasılsa feribotun içindeydim ve feribotta tanıştığım Amerikalı MİSYONER arkadaşların yardımı ile Kadıköy' deki metrobüs durağına sağ salim vardım. Asıl yolculuk o zaman başladı. 1 saate yakın süreyi o turuncu koltuklarıyla unutulmaz metroda geçirdim. Maltepe durağında inip oradaki personele Pendik durağının nerede olduğunu sordum ve oradan çıkıp küçük kamyonet tarzı beyaz bir otobüse bindim... Zar zor binebildiğim o otobüste Türkiye'nin para birimi olarak kullandığı lirayı tam olarak bilmediği için ne kadar ödeyeceğini bilmeyen o yüzden 50tl veren o halimi ve Türkçe bilmediği için kekeleyen ve ne yapacağını bilmeyen o şaşkın beni izleyen insanların gülüşüyle karşılaştım. Onların gözünde ben, birden ortaya çıkan ve aklı yerinde olmayan bir yabancıydım. Daha da gülünç olan o otobüsün Pendik'teki tren istasyonuna gitmediği ve şoför amcanın beni indirerek aşağı doğru in şeklinde el hareketi yapmasıydı. Ve 20 dakika boyunca seyahat çantasını kucağımda tutarak koştur koştur altgeçitten geçip en sonunda hedefime ulaştım. Geç kalmamak için müthiş bir hızla koşarak geldim gelmeye ama Ankara yönüne gidecek yüksek hızlı trenin 3 saat gecikeceğinin anonsu yapıldı. Ter içinde kalan bedenimle yere çöküp kaldım. İstanbul' un merkezinden Pendik' teki tren istasyonuna kadar gelmem 3 saat sürdü. O günü dün gibi hatırlıyorum

여행을 마치고 집으로 돌아가는 길. 까미노에서 만났던 친구들이 대부분 그들의 나라로 돌아갔고 벌써 왓츠앱으로 까미노에 대한 추억을 이야기하기 시작했다. 내가 집에 돌아간다고 했을 때 많은 사람들이 아쉬워했고 심지어 가지 말라는 사람도 있었다. 나는 그들에게 어떤 존재였나 생각하는 찰나에 그들은 벌써 나를 좋게 생각해주었다. 이번 여행의 출발지인 블라디보스톡 시베리아 횡단열차부터 러시아, 터키, 프랑스, 까미노를 거쳐 마지막인 마드리드까지 많은 사람을 만났고 대부분 다 잊지 못할 사람들로 남았다. 정말 사람 복이 좋았다. 그리고 나 또한 노력했다. 몇몇 친구들은 나와 다음 만남을 기약하며 서로의 일에 집중하기로 했다. 여행지에서 만난 것은 단순히 만났다는 것으로만 끝나지 않는다 이젠. 미래에 어떤 다른 장소에서 만날 것을 우리는 알고 있다. 나는 그들이 곧 그리워질 것이다. 나는 이번 여행을 이렇게 정의내리고 싶다. '너와 나의 추억 그리고 그 공간'

The way to return to my house after finished whole trip. Most of all friends whom i've met on Camino de Santiago returned their house and already started to talking about memory on the Camino. When i said to you guys that I'm gonna board my airplane as soon, seriously lots of people feel the loss of that, even some guys told me 'Just stay here and don't go back'. As i think about that what my being is for them, they judged me as very well. During This long journey started from Vladivostok, via Siberia train, Moscow, Istanbul, Bordeaux, Camino de Santiago to Madrid, i've met really lots of people, obviously all of them remained unforgettable people. Fortunately, All people was really nice. And i tried myself as well. Some friends pledged next meeting with me by dedicating each other work or study until for that time. The meaning of meeting in tourist places or on the Camino simply is not the end meaning that we've met in one place now. We definitely know the truth that we will meet someday in another place together in the future. I'll miss them as soon. I just wanna define my whole trip like this "memory between you & me , and the place" Thanks for everyone.

Young is not just an amazing boy, he is a very good friend too. I met him in the Camino but I really hope that our paths will cross again. I immediately felt comfortable talking with him about everything. Everyone enjoyed staying with him because he is such a openminded boy. He really made my Camino experience important.

Young Suk/Kevin/Juan Dominguez is a korean legend. I met him when I was working in a hostel in Kuala Lumpur and he came to stay with us. Really easy to talk to, always with some interesting information about his travels and his home country. He even gave me some korean noodles to try, that was fun.

I love his house so much and Cheonan, where he live in is good place to hang out!! He cooked a Korean spicy ramen for me. And he took care of me(Thanks!!) If you want to get great experience with traveling, you should stay in his house!! It would be a great trip in South Korea ☺️

日本の皆さん!韓国に行ったなら、彼の家に泊まるべきです!彼の家に泊まれば、あなたの旅行は素晴らしいものになります。保証します。彼は僕のために、気を遣ってくれましたし、ラーメンも作ってくれました!また、彼の家があるCheonanは、お店がいっぱいあり、お洒落なバーもあります。ソウルからは約1時間で着きます。おすすめです!
