海外からの来客に日本の文化を体験して頂きたく伺いました。外交を兼ねていたので絶対に失礼がないよう、環境などもご事前にお電話でご相談させて頂いたにもかかわらず、誠に残念ながらお連れしたことを後悔する結果となりました。当日は7万7760円事前支払いで貸切りでしたが、日本での旅で来客の一人がお腹を壊してしまい、観光先でのトイレ探しや薬局などに苦労し、事前の連絡をいれたものの到着が遅れてしまいました。本体験を主催している方は、到着した時にはすでに苛立ちをあらわに、体調への配慮の言葉一つありませんでした。外交官など外賓も迎えているという体験場所は古く、狭く、散らかり、薄暗く、和文化を伝えるには不適切で、着付け体験の着物・帯ともにみたこともないほど安っぽく、また押入れの中の透明の衣装ケースに雑に押し込まれているという酷い扱いでした。英語での対応はしてくれましたが、不慣れな方が「少しゆっくり話していただけますか?」と訪ねたにも関わらず、早口で聞き取りにくい英語での対応を続けられ、伝える、ではなく、説明を聞けという印象でした。いくつかの体験を省略し、時間内で終われるよう主催者側へも謝罪の上、配慮をしたつもりですが、時間より随分早く出口へ案内され、早く終えて帰りたいという意図があからさまで、お連れしたゲストの方々も苦笑いの状態でした。和文化の伝承をされるなら改善をしていただけることを願います。
