MARRIED IN A KIMONO, HAPPY IN SWITZERLAND

We interviewed Mayumi, a 36-year-old Japanese woman who has lived in the Swiss town of Bevaix for two
years with her husband, an Englishman, whom she met on the banks of Lake Neuchatel in Switzerland.
In Japan, to answer someone with a ‘no’ is very impolite. “We almost never say it!” said Mayumi. She is
thinking back to how she kept this custom even upon her arrival in Switzerland. “The Japanese manage not to
ask directly in order not to embarrass the person they are speaking with. But here, people ask very directly, ‘Do
you want a glass of wine? ‘Would you like some coffee?’ Well, I always felt I had to say ‘yes'.
The couple has been married for two years. They live in an extremely modern house in Bevaix, where Mayumi
spends most of her time. She has become a mother, and she interrupted her studies to have her second child, a
little girl whose name translated as “purity”. Mayumi’s roots are in the city of lzumo, west of Osaka. Her
brother and her parents still live in the same place, under the same roof. Her mother was married before she was
20. According to the institution of arranged marriages, she knew from when she was a little girl that her
parents, Mayumi’s grandparents, would choose a husband for her. Mayumi is both modern and traditional. She
raises her children to have Japanese manners. Her son, at 20 months of age, modestly bows his head with his
hands folded before every meal. Mayumi told us, “It is a way of showing respect for the family that provided
the food.The elder members of the family sit at the top of the Japanese family. In Japan, people who work hard
to support the family are shown respect.” Mayumi can remember her brother coming home from work each
night at 10:00 p.m. “We have very few vacation days, and it’s very rare to have a week off." says Mayumi.
When her brother attended her wedding in Switzerland, he had to leave the very next day. On her wedding day,
she dressed up in a kimono of beautiful Japanese fabric. Mayumi doesn‘t think about going back to live in
Japan.
