There is even a photo studio where you see the sort of aspiration with a faraway place, like that hotel in Sweden.
這是甚至有一個(gè)照相館讓你看到一種期望去住在真正的大房子里或者和一個(gè)遙遠(yuǎn)的地方產(chǎn)生聯(lián)系，比如瑞典的旅館。
On this particular evening,
在這個(gè)特別的夜晚，
I came across this live band dressed to the T in their coordinating outfits.
我遇到這個(gè)穿著舞臺(tái)表演衣服的現(xiàn)場(chǎng)演奏樂隊(duì)。
They were floating through the canals in a large canoe with a fitted-out generator for all of the community to enjoy.
他們?cè)诤拥览锲谝粋€(gè)裝了可發(fā)光的大船里，讓所有居民欣賞他們的演出。
By nightfall, the area becomes almost pitch black,
深夜降臨后，這片區(qū)域變得漆黑一片，
save for a small lightbulb or a fire.
除了一些小的電燈或者火光。
What originally brought me to Makoko was this project from a friend of mine,
最初使我來到馬卡卡的原因是一個(gè)我朋友的做的項(xiàng)目，
Kunl Adeyemi, who recently finished building this three-story floating school for the kids in Makoko.
昆里阿德耶米，它最近修建了一個(gè)漂在水上的三層學(xué)校,給馬卡卡這里的孩子們使用。
With this entire village existing on the water,
由于整個(gè)村落都在水上，
public space is very limited,
公共空間十分有限，
so now that the school is finished,
所以現(xiàn)在學(xué)校建好了，
the ground floor is a playground for the kids,
底層就變成了孩子們的活動(dòng)場(chǎng)所，
but when classes are out, the platform is just like a town square,
但是當(dāng)課上完了，整個(gè)平臺(tái)就變成了一個(gè)小的城鎮(zhèn)廣場(chǎng)，
where the fishermen mend their nets and floating shopkeepers dock their boats.
漁民在那里補(bǔ)網(wǎng)劃船賣東西的人們?cè)谀抢锿？磕敬?/div>
Another place I'd like to share with you is the Zabbaleen in Cairo.
另一個(gè)我希望和你們分享的地方是在開羅的扎巴林。
They're descendants of farmers who began migrating from the upper Egypt in the '40s,
這里的居民是40年代從埃及上部的地區(qū)移居過來的農(nóng)民的后代，
and today they make their living by collecting and recycling waste from homes from all over Cairo.
今天他們靠著從全開羅居民家里收集和回收垃圾維生。
For years, the Zabbaleen would live in makeshift villages where they would move around trying to avoid the local authorities,
很多年來，扎巴林的居民生活在臨時(shí)的村落里,他們可以隨時(shí)移動(dòng)以試圖回避當(dāng)?shù)卣?/div>
but in the early 1980s, they settled on the Mokattam rocks just at the eastern edge of the city.
但是在80年代初，他們?cè)谀ㄋ飞絽^(qū)定居下來就在城市東邊的邊緣地區(qū)。
