Hi mate, thanks for watching. There’s actually nothing much to translate from those subtitles, since I wrote them for my guests from Korea. The video pretty much explains everything 👌🏼
Yes, and also much cheaper than Ferrymead. Only 3 euros for students. In fact, Ferrymead Township is currently closed until end of September for major maintenance and upgrades. I hope they won't increase the entry fee with the reopening.
Definetely a lot smoother and quieter, but it's a little cramped inside due to the narrow-gauge tracks we have in our area. Larger cities like Cologne and Frankfurt have trams with a wider body running on standard 1.4m gauge (same width as Christchurch Trams)
Your current home city looks a lot livelier than your previous one, John, even though Christchurch has a much larger population (and area). Will you be attending any of the matches?
Yes, but mainly around the station and the main square. Other parts of this town are very much like the New Brighton shopping street today. And no, unfortunately the tickets are long sold out...
Ferrymead doesn't seem to get many visitors these days, John. I hope things are busier in the summer or they might close down. The council doesn't want to give them any more money, so they rely on ticket sales a lot now.
That's right Jim, the park is very quiet these days partly because the trains and trolley buses arn't running during winter, which are the main attractions at Ferrymead. And I believe the Park has been having money issues for many years now. Fortunately, the Tramway Society Inc. down at Bridle Path Rd end is still very busy. In fact, with CTB trams arriving from city center for maintenance works and repairs, they are running out of storage space for trams and most importantly, workforce!
That looked like a good transformation, John (and no doubt an expensive one!) Here in Christchurch it would probably take three weeks and not be done half as well.
Thanks, Jim. Believe it or not, it took us almost 4 months just to get the permission for dropping the kerb from the City. And yes, it was an expensive project indeed. But as you can tell by the amount of earthworks required, it wasn't something I could tackle with a shovel and a wheelbarrow. Luckily, we had the right guys to do the job for us👍The video is actually from last February and the garden looks a lot greener now.
영상 잘 보았습니다, 감사합니다^^ 혹시 이곳 들어가려면 몇개월 전에 대기리스트에 등록해야 할까요? 집때문에 너무 고생을 해서 꼭 이곳으로 들어가고 싶은데 신청을 언제쯤, 희망입주시점 6개월 전에는 해놓아야 할까요? 그리고 여기 Student Apartment 정확한 이름, 어디 Strasse인지도 알 수 있을까요? :)
영상 봐주셔서 감사합니다. 제가 알기론 현재 1인실 Apartment는 웨이팅리스트도 거의 다 찬걸로 알고있습니다. 학기시작 1년전부터 신청하시는게 좋을거에요. 다른기숙사들도 사정은 비슷합니다. 보훔에 건물들이 적지않은데도 불구하고 입사경쟁률이 생각보다 꽤 높아요. 영상속 건물은 AKAFÖ Siepenfeld 라고 길 이름은 [Laerheidestr. 4-8 Bochum] 입니다.
