Montenegro, Wednesday, June 2021 and I'm ready to start my new Highlander adventure.
6
Almost 100 kilometers of Mountain Durmator.
7
So let's see what this mountain has to offer.
8
Let's go!
9
This is the crew that will be hiking on Dermitov mountain.
10
It's nearly the beginning and we've already lost the trail.
11
So we're wandering across dense forests of Montenegro.
12
I think everything's gonna be all right.
13
Oh, the sun.
14
So yeah, let's go.
15
Because of this high snow year, there was a reroute.
16
So we had to road walk a little bit.
17
And now I'm here.
18
some mountains and yeah it's not marked it's not well marked just GPS track
19
so I'm following it have to go up I'm bushwhacking
20
again I'm not happy with this GPS track have to go back it's pretty steep I don't know where I'm going
21
Bloody hell.
22
So this dog down there is Chips,
23
I named him Chips and he's following me for last hour or two and he's a kind of cool dog.
24
He found a patch of ice and snow and he's enjoying it.
25
looking at me and I think he wants to follow him again.
26
Yeah, he's a good dog.
27
So let's go.
28
Chips!
29
What was that?
30
Run!
31
Don't throw me chips.
32
You have a damn chip.
33
Chips.
34
Here we go.
35
Everything's going to be better.
36
I don't like cows, they're unpredictable just like those.
37
Yeah!
38
There's a checkpoint down there.
39
The first one, I took my stamp and I'm going on.
40
I got cheese pie here, it's good.
41
I'll keep on going.
42
Me and my friend, Chips, he's my companion.
43
Let's go!
44
Oh my god, super tough!
45
It's really steep and it's really long.
46
Oh my god!
47
I have some pains here in my belly.
48
I don't know what it is, but it's not good.
49
I need to keep on moving.
50
Almost there.
51
The pass is somewhere there.
52
I cannot see where.
53
Almost there. so This
54
is kinda steep But it's okay!
55
Oh my god!
56
Come on!
57
Oh shit!
58
Good!
59
Oh my god!
60
Super cold for my tushy!
61
I love you.
62
It's a dense forest and we are hiking.
63
We need to get to the checkpoint and it's three of us including dog.
64
We made it.
65
We're almost there.
66
The checkpoint number two is there.
67
So we're gonna go there.
68
It was tough, right?
69
Chips Wow, chips Chips it
70
He got the dinner And the dinner is Cevapi Nice She's a happy
71
Charlie, Le Perret Amen.
72
So I had a late start.
73
I have a problem with a headache and maybe a higher temperature.
74
I'm not sure.
75
So we are lost again?
76
Still lost.
77
Still lost.
78
We are still lost in the woods.
79
There are no marks from the road and no trails that I can tell.
80
So this is checkpoint 3.
81
We came from another direction because we took a reroute because of non-existing routes in the forest.
82
So yeah, here we are.
83
It's quite beautiful.
84
Looks like a glacier lake.
85
It looks outstanding.
86
The cliffs are really awesome.
87
The only problem is the tiny little mosquitoes.
88
and there's more than one.
89
And they're probably buzzing around my head.
90
There's some flies, but they don't bother me.
91
It's morning
92
in the camp.
93
It was pretty cold in the night, but I was okay.
94
It's beautiful here on this lake.
95
So I have to pack up and I think the next checkpoint is on Tara river.
96
So I had to get there.
97
And I don't know is the GPS track okay.
98
Because last two days we had some troubles finding the trail. so I
99
don't know why they saw it for one finger.
100
But probably one finger and two, the other finger.
101
Yeah so
102
What do we have here?
103
This is called technically breaking a trail since there is no trail.
104
We need to break our way through the woods to create the trail.
105
fun times or not I don't know is this fun or not you tell me I don't see them
106
they disappeared in the bushes
107
So this is Tara River Canyon you can see the big rocks they are super vertical and I'm going down
108
to this nice place on Tara River hopefully the river is good for swimming yeah I bet it is let's go
109
and Tara River Canyon is the second deepest one on the planet after Grand Canyon this is the deepest one right
110

112
I'm sorry.
113

| Obligación: must / have to / need to decir que algo es necesario | have to know · has to offer · had to road |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — algo que ocurre ahora o en estos días | we're wandering · I'm following · I'm going |

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
