迎春茶话会 ｜过年的记忆、转变和想象

Spring Festival Gathering: Memories, Transformations and Imaginations of the New Year

对很多人来说，春节曾是与家人团聚的时刻；对另一些人而言，它可能意味着一年中唯一一次与亲戚相聚、被反复追问成绩、感情和薪资的时刻。而当我们身处异国，远离熟悉的家庭、城市与节奏，春节又变成了一种怎样的存在？

For many people, the Spring Festival was once a time for family reunion. For others, it may have meant the one occasion each year to meet relatives and be repeatedly questioned about academic performance, relationships and income. When we find ourselves living abroad, far from familiar families, cities and rhythms of life, what does the Spring Festival become?

在这个迎春茶话会中，我们邀请身处英国的你，一起回顾、分享并重新思考“春节”对自己的意义。

In this Spring Festival Tea Gathering, we invite those of you living in the UK to come together to revisit, share and rethink what the Spring Festival means to you today.

你可以分享温暖的回忆，也可以谈及不那么轻松的经历，或者只是讲述一个人在异乡过年的自由与孤独。

You are welcome to share warm and joyful memories, reflect on more complicated or difficult experiences, or simply talk about the freedom and solitude of spending the New Year alone in a foreign country.

而今年的你又将在哪里过年呢？

And this year, where will you be celebrating the New Year?

这将是一个以个人经验为核心、以倾听和交流为方式的探索型活动，期待听到你的分享。

This is an exploratory, participant-centred event based on personal experience, listening and conversation. We look forward to hearing your stories.
