程度副詞

Two and a half years ago during my very first visit in India I spent two days walking all around the slums of Mumbai and

轉承詞

Even though I got to learn so much about the life

And the slums I didn't really have the chance to live

我卻沒有機會真的住在裡面看看

Inside the slums and so I left with more questions than answers

所以我的問題比得到的解答還多

So now that I came back to India for the second time I decided to go back to Mumbai and actually spend five days

Living inside the adi, which is one of the largest slums in the world

At the end of the 19th century that IV was a sparsely populated village inhabited by coldy fishermen

那是世界上最大的其中一個貧民窟

During the British colonial era and grew exponentially fast due to the expulsion of various polluting industries from downtown Mumbai

在十九世紀末，Dharavi 是一個人口稀少的小鎮

Throughout the years millions of people have reported to Mumbai from rural India in search of a better future

And some of them settled in Dharavi this led to the local population being incredibly diverse in their religions cultures and languages

然後在英國殖民期間的 1882 年，貧民窟建立了

These days that I've is one of the largest slums in the world housing up to a million people

並且因為孟買市區產業快速發展帶來的多污染產業，貧民窟以倍數增長壯大

Since there's very little government regulation it has become a hub for entrepreneurs and in place of incredibly cheap labor

在幾年間，幾百萬人為了更好的未來，從鄉間來到了孟買

It is estimated that the annual turnover of Dharavi some around a billion u.s.

dollars with most of their goods being exported overseas

這使得當地居民擁有非常多元的

In the 21st century Dharavi has become a topic of interest in mystery for

Millions of people due to the publicity to received from movies like Slumdog Millionaire and books like Shantaram as for me

在現今，Dharavi 是世界上最大的貧民窟之一

I'm not a scientist or a researcher of any kind

I simply wanted to learn more about what life was like in the slums of Mumbai. I knew I would find this experience

I open it. I just couldn't have predicted how much

它已經成為了一個企業家和廉價勞工的據點

It is 12 p.m.. In Mumbai a few kilometers away from the slums

Dharavi 的年營業額預估上看約十億美金

And I'm finally going there so my friend who lives in the slums. Who's called Praveen is already waiting for me

I'm gonna pack my stuff and take a back seat to meet him

在 21 世紀，Dharavi 成為了百萬人感興趣並疑惑的主題

It's been almost two years since I last saw Praveen and I was incredibly happy to finally meet him again

這都歸因於《貧民百萬富翁》和《項塔蘭》一書所帶來的知名度

就我而言，我既不是科學家也非任何方面的研究人員

Once we met we started exploring the slums right away and made our way to one of the biggest markets in all of that that

在孟買貧民窟內的生活會是如何

Was completely packed with people there's literally thousands of people buying and selling stuff

我知道這次經驗一定會讓我開眼界

There's kids going home from school. There's all the vegetables fruits clothing electronics and everything else you can imagine

只是無法想像究竟會見識到多少

It didn't seem like all the food stalls were properly sanitized

But the locals told me the products were fresh so I dug in walk garden for 15 euro cents. That's a good deal

Then we kept on exploring other areas of that, I'll be passing through dozens of tiny crowded lanes

I'm gonna try playing cricket for the first time in my life right now

我有個叫做 Praveen 的朋友住在貧民窟，他已經在等我了

我要打包好，然後叫輛車過去見他

After a couple of hours in the slums I asked permian if I could use the bathroom somewhere

我上次見到 Praveen 已經是是近兩年前了

我實在很開心終於能夠再次見到他

And we ended up here in those houses these houses these houses

一旦碰面，我們馬上開始探索貧民窟

Or these house people don't have any toilet

然後前往 Dharavi 其中一個最大的市集

So everyone just crosses this sheet and goes to the bubble toilets right there every single day over

2,000 people used this public toilet, and it cost only 5 Euro cents to get it they have toilets on both sides

It turned out the day I arrived to Dharavi was a really important celebration across India called Guru, Poornima

還有電器，各種你能想像到的東西

It is an Indian festival dedicated to spiritual and academic teachers during which the students pay their respects and express gratitude

看起來並不是所有的食物攤販都很衛生

Praveen brought me to a tent where everyone was paying their respects to their spiritual teacher status fighting the atmosphere was really

但是當地人告訴我商品都很新鮮

Festive and everyone got as much free food as they wanted. I couldn't resist it, too

所以我就開吃啦！一包爆米花才 15 分歐元 (約台幣 5 元)

Which is like well here it became smart a single

Everyone was really excited that I came to the festival and they brought me on the stage which was quite a unique experience

Eventually, we hit the streets and spend hours parading all across the slums

然後我們繼續走訪 Dharavi 的其他區

Traffic in this intersection so that we could pass a little in the middle of the street and now the chorus goes together this card

Late at night pravin took me to the place that would become my home for the next five days

I finally go to the place where I will be saying for the next five days. It looks like a proper slum

在貧民窟內幾小時後，我問 Praveen 我能不能上個廁所

There's many small houses a lot of moist dark lanes

Sometimes there's some lighting, but not always

在那些屋子和這些房子或是這些

人們沒有任何廁所，所以大家都要過馬路去那裡的公共廁所

It is already 11 p.m.. At night, so I guess it's the end of the first day of me being in the slums

每一天都有超過兩千人用這間公共廁所

But so far has been awesome right now. Just go straight to bed

使用一次只要五分歐元 (約台幣 2 元)

I'll try to wake up early next morning to once again explore as much as I can

This morning I went downstairs and everyone was taking a bath

And then my host said so where do you want to take a bath?

I said I don't know I'm too lazy to think about and then he said no no no no

結果在我來到 Dharavi 的這天剛好是一個印度很重要的節日，叫做 Guru Purnima (導師節)

If you live in the slums you have to take a bath every single day no exceptions

這個印度節日向精神導師和學業導師致敬

So I guess it's time for my morning bath they

在這天，學生表達他們的敬意和感謝

Praveen 帶我到一個棚子內，每個人都在向他們的精神導師致敬

這裡很有過節的氣氛，每個人想吃多少的免費食物都行

For your head you guys use like a shampoo

After the shower we had a quick breakfast and continued exploring that Island that day Praveen wanted to show me the only

剛拿了一些免費食物，但是他們沒有提供湯匙或是叉子

Non-urbanized place in the slums, so we walked at the edge of the lobby and hopped into his friends Pratt

Good you want to swim you want to go swimming

Some minutes later. We arrived to this really tiny fishermen's village where we met up with a few more praveen's friends

We just came to some small island and look at the color of that water. It's even more interesting hey

每個人都很興奮我來參加這個節慶，他們還把我帶上台

Then a bathtub right there. It didn't take me long to understand

活動結束了，每個人都準備離開看列隊遊行

Why this place was so incredibly important to Praveen and his friends?

最後我們來到街上，在貧民窟的各處遊行了幾小時

It was their only get away from the hustle and bustle of life in Dharavi now. We're going to some sort of another swamp

警察封起了這個十字路口，我們就能走靠近路的中央

That's much bigger than this one apparently and also Praveen told me that no foreigners have ever

現在合唱團也一起走，這輛車和遊行也會繼續

Visited this place only the local people who who live in these tiny houses or our huts

當晚，Praveen 帶我去到我接下來五天的家

Somewhere somewhere there, that's that is garbage

我終於要去我接下來要待上五天的地方了

Relatively clean water so they have this water drainage system

有很多小房子，很多噪音和黑暗的巷弄

where basically the fish from this side they cannot pass to that sides to the garbage and

The water level increases on that side the water without the garbage can flow to that side

We have some images so that and for the yeah

Yeah, so they also sleep here or just rescue

已經晚上十一點了，所以我想我在貧民窟的第一天就到這裡

Here, and then the rest here the place wasn't the cleanest but the guys didn't seem to care all that much and made the best

明天早上我會盡量早起，盡可能多多探索

The woman in the vote now has a helmet. Let's race guys who's gonna be first

今天早上我下樓去，每個人都在洗澡

然後我的房東和我說「你想在哪洗澡？」

This is a small island. They say it's the small Thailand right here

我說「我不知道，我想我懶得洗澡。」

Coming here was like going into a time machine that took me hundreds of years back to the end of the 19th century
