Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr English Channel,

where learning English is easy and fun.

I'm Emily.

Hi Emily.

It is so wonderful to be here with you today.

Hello to all our friends listening at home,

at work, or maybe on the bus.

Yes, welcome back.

How are you doing today, Paul?

Did you have a good morning?

I did.

I went for a very long walk in the park.

The weather is beautiful today.

Oh, I love the park.

It is so green and quiet there.

It really is.

I saw many people there today.

Some were running, some were reading,

and some were just sitting in the sun.

That sounds perfect.

Actually, Paul, that is a great way to start our topic today.

Oh?

Are we talking about the park?

Not exactly.

We are talking about hobbies,

the things we love to do in our free time.

Wow, I love that topic.

Hobbies are so important, aren't they?

They really are.

Life is not just about work or studying.

We need to do things that make us happy.

Yes, exactly.

When I am busy with work,

I feel a little stressed.

But when I do my hobbies, I feel relaxed.

Hmm.

Why do you think hobbies matter so much?

For me, it is about feeling creative.

I agree.

I think hobbies give us a brain break.

It's like a small vacation for your mind.

A vacation for your mind.

That is a very nice way to say it to say it.

Yes.

When I'm gardening, I don't think about my emails or my phone.

I just think about the flowers.

That is so true.

It helps people grow, too.

You learn new things when you have a hobby.

Good job, Emily.

That is a very good point.

If you start a hobby,

you are a student again.

Yes.

And learning something new is exciting.

It makes life interesting.

So, Emily, tell me, what do you do for fun?

What are your favorite things to do?

Well, I have a few hobbies.

I really love watching old movies.

Old movies?

Like black and white movies?

Yes.

I love the stories and the clothes.

It's very relaxing for me.

That sounds very cozy.

Do you watch them alone or with friends?

Usually alone, with a big bowl of popcorn.

It is my me time.

Popcorn makes everything better.

I also love watching movies,

but I like action movies.

Action movies are fun too,

but I also like cooking.

That is my other big hobby.

Ah, cooking.

Are you a good cook?

I try.

I like to try new recipes on the weekend.

Sometimes it's great, and sometimes, well, it's a surprise.

A surprise?

What happened last time?

Well, last Saturday, I tried to make a chocolate cake.

Ooh, I love chocolate cake.

Was it delicious?

It looked beautiful, but I made a small mistake.

I used salt instead of sugar.

Oh no. Salt instead of sugar?

That is a very big surprise.

It was terrible.

I took a big bite and wow, it was so salty.

I had to throw it away.

That is a funny story.

But hey, that's how we learn, right?

Yes, exactly.

Mistakes are okay.

We just try again next time.

What about you, Paul?

What do you do for fun?

100

I really like playing games.

101

Board games with my family or sometimes video games.

102

Video games?

103

Really?

104

I didn't know that.

105

Oh yes, I have a small computer for games.

106

It is very fun.

107

It helps me focus on something different.

108

That's great.

109

I think it's important to have different kinds of activities.

110

Some are inside and some are outside.

111

Yes, that is a good point.

112

I like indoor activities when it is raining.

113

Me too.

114

Reading a book or playing a game is perfect for a rainy day.

115

But when the sun is shining,

116

I need to go outside.

117

I love hiking in the mountains.

118

Hiking?

119

Wow, that is a very active hobby.

120

Is it difficult?

121

Sometimes.

122

It is a little hard,

123

but the view from the top is amazing.

124

You can see everything.

125

I prefer simple outdoor activities.

126

I like walking or maybe riding my bicycle in the city.

127

Riding a bike is great exercise,

128

and it is faster than walking.

129

Yes, it is.

130

But I like to go slowly and look at the shops.

131

Hmm.

132

So we have indoor hobbies,

133

like movies and games, and outdoor hobbies, like hiking and biking.

134

Yes.

135

Which one do you like more?

136

Hmm.

137

That's a hard question.

138

I think I need both.

139

If I stay inside too much, I feel tired.

140

I understand.

141

We need fresh air and movement.

142

But I also love my cozy time inside.

143

It's all about balance.

144

Yes, balance is the key.

145

Speaking of balance, what are your favorite weekend plans?

146

On the weekend, I usually wake up late.

147

That is my first hobby on Saturday.

148

Sleeping is a very good hobby.

149

I like that one too.

150

Then I usually go to the market.

151

I like looking at the fresh fruit and vegetables.

152

Oh, I do that too.

153

It feels very relaxed.

154

No hurry, no stress.

155

Exactly.

156

Then in the afternoon, I usually meet a friend for coffee.

157

That sounds like a perfect Saturday.

158

My weekends are usually a little busy.

159

Oh, what do you do?

160

Well, I am trying to learn something new right now.

161

Really?

162

What are you learning?

163

I am learning to play the guitar.

164

The guitar?

165

Wow, Emily, that is so cool.

166

Is it hard?

167

It is very hard.

168

My fingers hurt a little bit.

169

Ah, yes.

170

The strings are strong.

171

How long do you practice?

172

I try to practice for 30 minutes every day.

173

Sometimes I am good, and sometimes I sound like a cat.

174

Like a cat?

175

I'm sure you're better than a cat.

176

Maybe.

177

But I enjoy it.

178

It's a new skill, and it feels good to learn.

179

That's amazing.

180

Learning a new instrument is a great hobby.

181

It uses a different part of your brain.

182

It really does.

183

I have to think about the notes and the rhythm.

184

I want to learn something new, too.

185

Maybe I can learn to draw.

186

Drawing?

187

That is a wonderful idea.

188

You can draw the mountains when you go hiking.

189

Oh, yes, that is a great idea.

190

I can take a notebook and a pencil with me.

191

See?

192

One hobby can help another hobby.

193

You are so smart, Emily.

194

Thanks, Paul.

195

So, we talked about learning new things.

196

What about hobbies with friends?

197

Oh, I love doing things with friends.

198

Last week, I went to a football match with my brother and a friend.

199

A football match?

200

Was it loud?

201

Very loud.

202

Everyone was shouting and singing.

203

It was so much energy.

204

I'm not a big sports fan,

205

but I like the energy of a crowd.

206

It's fun to share an experience with other people.

207

I agree.

208

With my friends, I usually like to go out for dinner.

209

Ah, yes.

210

Eating and chatting.

211

That is the best.

212

It is.

213

We talk about our week,

214

our families, and our dreams.

215

It is very simple, but very happy.

216

Do you go to the same restaurant every time?

217

No, we like to try new places.

218

Last time, we went to a small Mexican restaurant.

219

Ooh, I love tacos.

220

Me too.

221

They were delicious.

222

We had a great time.

223

That's the thing about friends.

224

Even a simple walk can be a hobby if you do it together.

225

Exactly.

226

But sometimes I also like to do things alone.

227

Me too.

228

Being alone is not the same as being lonely.

229

That is very true, Paul.

230

I love my solo time.

231

What do you do when you are alone?

232

I like journaling.

233

I have a special notebook where I write my thoughts.

234

Journaling?

235

That is very interesting.

236

Do you write every day?

237

Almost every day.

238

It helps me clear my head.

239

I like walking alone.

240

Sometimes I don't listen to music.

241

I just listen to the birds and the wind.

242

That sounds very peaceful.

243

It's a great way to relax.

244

It is.

245

Oh, I have a funny story from my walk yesterday.

246

Tell me.

247

I love stories.

248

Well, I was walking alone,

249

and I saw a very beautiful bird.

250

It was bright blue.

251

Wow, a blue bird?

252

Yes.

253

I wanted to take a photo,

254

so I took out my phone,

255

and I walked slowly, slowly.

256

And?

257

Did you get the photo?

258

Well, I was looking at the bird,

259

and I didn't look at the ground.

260

Oh no, Paul!

261

What happened?

262

I walked right into a small tree.

263

Oh my goodness!

264

Did you fall?

265

No, but I hit my head.

266

The bird flew away, and a lady on a bench laughed at me.

267

Poor Paul!

268

The bird was safe, but you were not.

269

Yes.

270

My head was a little red, but I laughed too.

271

It was a funny moment.

272

You have to be careful when you are bird watching.

273

I know.

274

I was too excited.

275

Well, that is a great memory.

276

Before we continue, I want to say something to our listeners.

277

Oh, yes.

278

Good idea.

279

If you are enjoying this conversation about hobbies,

280

don't forget to like this video and subscribe to Mr. English Channel.

281

Yes, please.

282

It really helps us.

283

And share this with a friend who is learning English.

284

Maybe you can talk about your hobbies together.

285

That is a great idea.

286

And if you are still listening, comment hobby below.

287

We want to see who is here with us.

288

Yes, leave a comment.

289

We love reading them.

290

Okay, Paul, let's talk about the past for a minute.

291

The past?

292

You mean when we were children?

293

Exactly.

294

Did you have different hobbies when you were a child?

295

Oh, yes.

296

Very different.

297

When I was 10, I loved collecting toy cars.

298

Toy cars.

299

How many did you have?

300

I had maybe 50.

301

I put them all in a line on my bedroom floor.

302

Fifty cars.

303

That is a lot of traffic in your bedroom.

304

Yes.

305

My mom was not happy when she stepped on one.

306

Ouch.

307

Those little cars are very painful for feet.

308

They really are.

309

I don't collect cars now,

310

but I still like cars.

311

I used to love drawing when I was little.

312

I drew on everything.

313

Everything?

314

Like the walls?

315

Yes, sometimes the walls.

316

My parents gave me a lot of paper so I would stop drawing on the house.

317

That was a smart choice by your parents.

318

It's funny how we change.

319

Now I play the guitar and cook.

320

I don't draw on walls anymore.

321

Well, that's good.

322

We grow up and find new interests.

323

But some hobbies are good for us, right?

324

Like healthy hobbies?

325

Yes, like exercise.

326

I think exercise is a great hobby because it makes your body feel strong.

327

I agree.

328

I started doing yoga last month.

329

Yoga?

330

That's great.

331

Is it relaxing?

332

It is.

333

But it is also difficult.

334

Some positions are very strange.

335

I feel like a pretzel.

336

A pretzel.

337

I can imagine that.

338

But after the class, I feel very calm.

339

It is good for my mind and my body.

340

I like running.

341

It is my favorite healthy hobby.

342

Running sounds hard to me.

343

I prefer walking.

344

Running is hard at the beginning,

345

but after 10 minutes, you feel a lot of energy.

346

Hmm.

347

Maybe I will try it one day.

348

Maybe.

349

Just start small.

350

Run for one minute, then walk for one minute.

351

That sounds possible.

352

Thanks, Paul.

353

You know, some hobbies are expensive, too.

354

That is true.

355

Like photography.

356

Good cameras cost a lot of money.

357

Yes, they do.

358

Or traveling.

359

Traveling is a wonderful hobby,

360

but you need a budget for that.

361

We talked about budgets in a different episode.

362

Do you remember?

363

I do.

364

Money in, money out.

365

Exactly.

366

But many hobbies are free.

367

Like walking in the park or going to the library to get a book.

368

Yes.

369

Or just chatting with a friend.

370

That is a free and happy activity.

371

I think people think they need to spend money to have fun, but they don't.

372

I agree.

373

The best things in life are often free.

374

That is very true.

375

I also think it is good to try new experiences.

376

Yes.

377

Stepping outside your comfort zone.

378

Last year, I tried a cooking class for the first time.

379

Oh, was it the how to use sugar and not salt class?

380

No, it was a class for making bread.

381

Bread?

382

That is difficult to make.

383

It was, but it was so interesting.

384

I met new people and I learned a new skill.

385

And did the bread taste good?

386

It was amazing.

387

There is nothing better than warm bread from the oven.

388

You are making me hungry now.

389

Sorry, but that is my point.

390

Trying something new can be a little scary, but it's very rewarding.

391

I agree.

392

I was scared to start the guitar,

393

but now I'm so happy I did.

394

Good job for being brave, Emily.

395

Thanks, Paul.

396

We should always look for joy in the simple moments of life.

397

Yes, like drinking a hot cup of tea when it's cold outside.

398

Or watching the rain from your window.

399

Or just listening to a podcast, like this one.

400

Yes, that is a very good hobby.

401

I think we should use our free time wisely.

402

It's okay to do nothing sometimes,

403

but it's also great to do something we love.

404

I agree.

405

Hobbies make us us.

406

They show our personality.

407

Well, Emily, we talked about a lot of things today.

408

We did.

409

It was a great conversation.

410

Let's see.

411

We talked about why hobbies are important for our brains.

412

Yes.

413

And we talked about indoor and outdoor activities.

414

And we shared our stories,

415

your salty cake and my bird-watching accident.

416

Yes.

417

We also talked about childhood hobbies and healthy activities.

418

And we learned that hobbies can be expensive or totally free.

419

It's all about finding what makes you happy.

420

That was a perfect recap, Emily.

421

You have a great memory.

422

Thanks, Paul.

423

You too.

424

Now, I have a small bonus tip for everyone.

425

A bonus tip?

426

I love those.

427

What is it?

428

My tip is if you are learning English, make it a hobby.

429

Oh, that is a great tip.

430

How do you do that?

431

Don't just study.

432

Do things you love in English.

433

If you love cooking, watch a cooking video in English.

434

Yes, or if you love games,

435

play a game in English.

436

Exactly.

437

It makes the learning feel easy and natural.

438

That is excellent advice.

439

Thank you, Emily.

440

You're welcome.

441

Well, everyone, that's all the time we have for today.

442

We hope you enjoyed our chat about hobbies.

443

It was so much fun.

444

Before you go, please remember to subscribe and like this video.

445

And don't forget to comment.

446

Tell us, what is your favorite hobby?

447

We love to hear from you.

448

It's our favorite part of the week.

449

Yes.

450

Thank you for listening and we will see you in the next episode.

451

Bye for now.

452

Bye-bye.
