Pratique du Shadowing: pack with me to move abroad 🇨🇦 - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo

I am packing and I'm going to be moving to Canada and living there for two years.

And yes, the suitcase is on the bed.

Okay, here's my suitcase.

It's on the bed.

It's fine.

I have a blanket down and this blanket is the blanket that I usually use for my dog, Wilson.

When my dog, Wilson, is on my bed, he's normally sat on this blanket it

so it's fine it's like a black a long black skirt i don't go to any formal events

and i have to finish finish packing this is impossible i have

so much stuff you can see this pile of clothes

and laundry over here i have so much stuff to get into the suitcase

so I think we just need to start packing.

The only thing I have in here so far is this.

So these are some workout clothes for going to the gym and I have two birthday cards.

It's my birthday in two weeks so I have these birthday cards as well

and honestly for this part of the video we are just going to pack

and I will film some of it

but honestly this is going to be such a long process

so I'm just going to start grabbing some things and we're going to go.

My trip is kind of split into like two parts.

For the first part I'm going to be in Spain

so I need to split my like summer clothes

and my winter clothes because in Canada I'm obviously going to need the winter clothes a lot more than the summer clothes.

I have here, these are some of my favourite jeans

so I'm gonna pack those i then have some trousers like a couple these are a couple tops

and uh these are these are pajamas and here's like 100 socks i'm gonna start with trousers and we'll go from there

jeans

I'm gonna bring maybe like four pairs of trousers I actually

I bought these recently can you see they're like this super cool pair of like dark wash denim jeans

and actually I heard recently

that skinny jeans are coming back into fashion like skinny jeans are in again

and i am not happy i'm not happy about skinny jeans being cool again

because i just think that baggy i just like baggy clothes

and i like a baggy silhouette in fashion like a baggy shape baggy is

when like clothes are too big i'm not happy that now we're going too skinny

i have another pair of jeans these ones are from hollister

and in basically every single vlog i think i'm wearing these jeans they're the hollister low -rise baggy flare

and i wear these like every day

and then this is a black skirt this is by the brand oh dress in i don't know it it's vintage

it's like a black a long black skirt black maxi skirt i'm going away

and i'm staying in canada until christmas at christmas i'm going to come back

because i always spend christmas in the uk like Christmas is our biggest holiday in the UK

so I want to be here then and in my head I'm thinking

that I don't need to bring like everything to Canada right now I just need to bring the essential things

that I think I will want for the next three months and then I can bring more stuff afterwards.

While I pack, I am going to watch a YouTube video.

That's my, that's my plan.

Can I show you guys?

Can I show you guys this dress that I bought in a charity shop?

Ignore the mess ignore the mess i'm packing look at this dress i bought isn't that amazing

i got this in a in a charity shop

and i thought it was

so beautiful for like a formal event i don't go to any formal events

but i thought it was so pretty

and it has all of these like all of these stripes in here that are made out of ribbons.

If you want to know the brand it's Isabel,

Isabel London with a z but it is so cute and I'm going to bring this as like a as a formal, a formal dress.

I also want to show you this dress which is amazing

that I have

so I used to live in California I think I've mentioned

this before I used to live in California in San Diego

and I was shopping once like in the thrift stores in La Jolla

which is basically the Beverly Hills of San Diego

and I found this dress it was by the designer Helmut Lang and I got it for like $30.

How beautiful and it's got like a no back and every time I go on vacation I wear this dress.

I used to wear it in San Diego all the time

but in the UK it's like a bit too fancy so if I have space I will bring this but we'll see.

I think like my big suitcase is kind of nearly done

and then I have my small suitcase there

and I'm going to tell you something insane about me

so I got asked by one of my students the other day she said to me

when you leave the UK like

when you live abroad is there anything from the UK

that you cannot live without and I said yeah there is it's bedding like the things

that you put on your bed

because at least in America people typically use like they use like a blanket

and then they put a they call it like a comforter on top

and this comforter is like usually a thick blanket um

and I hate it I hate it like in the UK

I have always basically my whole life I have slept with

a duvet like this like with a with a duvet

and now unless I'm like on vacation in a country that's

really really hot I hate sleeping without a duvet in particular I like a duvet with feathers inside

but I am vegetarian so I don't eat meat

and I don't like buying feather duvets or feather pillows

because they like obviously take the feathers from geese

or from ducks um so when I travel I take a duvet

and pillows with me because I won't buy I will not buy new feather pillows

or new like a new feather duvet this is just me like this is me being weird

so in my suitcase half of what I have packed like

half of this suitcase is clothes the other half of that suitcase is going to be a duvet and pillows

but obviously it's quite difficult to like get all of that to fit so I have these

this is a vacuum bag

and I'm going to vacuum like vacuum everything down not too much

but a little bit so

that it fits in my suitcase i know that's crazy what you do is you fill the bag

then you need to seal it so you seal it you close it here

so here it is and it's sealed and then you push the air out And there you go.

Two cushions.

100

I'm going to do the same thing to this.

101

Another thing that I cannot live without.

102

This is an electric blanket.

103

So this blanket warms up and I love this thing.

104

I save so much money.

105

on heating, like heating the house when I have this.

106

I used to use it at university because my house in London was so cold.

107

So I used this and it was the best thing ever.

108

Actually, like as a person, I'm a serious planner.

109

Like I have a plan for everything um but

110

when it comes to like packing

111

or needing certain things in certain places I just like don't care I really don't care

112

if I like don't have everything

113

that I need we we call this like I have a

114

bit of a make do attitude a make do attitude so

115

if you make something do it's like you make whatever you

116

have with you work I will make do with whatever is in this suitcase

117

and I will survive you know I'm gonna just make do

118

with it I don't care the only thing I cannot make

119

do without is a duvet seriously I need one obviously

120

if I travel I don't mind if it's different but for living somewhere long term oh my god so unscrew this

121

so here are my feather cushions perfect let's see it's now

122

pretty late it is 10 to 11 I'm going to stop here

123

and I'll do more tomorrow I don't have to leave until about 3 p .m

124

so I have time we're packing again with Wilson here's Wilson it's the next day I have no makeup on

125

and I literally just shoved my hair up so probably looks shit

126

but I am now going to try

127

and get the feather duvet in this suitcase ignore the mess

128

what do you think do you have faith do you have faith

129

that I can do this I have faith guys I have faith okay

130

yeah i know and i know what you were thinking you thought this is impossible

131

but it isn't it's not impossible look at this we're nearly there

132

i also i did not tell you but i also put a coat in here I added more stuff

133

yep yep that is an electric blanket two pillows like feather cushions a double queen -size duvet

134

a puffer coat and all of my winter clothes in one and there she is and now we have to

135

make sure that it's not too heavy

136

and I have to finish finish packing this is known as like my personal items bag

137

and I don't know if you can see

138

but this thing is full of tech like it's got my

139

keyboard in it it's got it's gonna have this camera in it it's gonna have my hard drive everything

140

and I know that security again I like hate this bag full of like a keyboard

141

and cables and everything

142

and then here is my big suitcase I paid extra to have like a heavier bag allowance

143

so it needs to weigh less than 23 kilograms

144

which I'm really hoping that it will like I don't think I should have any problems with

145

that but hi I'm now filming this from Spain

146

so I'm here in the villa right now i haven't really filmed very much or actually anything about my journey because

147

basically what i did is i flew from the uk to spain for a family vacation is to celebrate

148

basically the birthday of one of my family members

149

and basically tomorrow is when i fly to canada I'm gonna try

150

and like film a little bit from that part of the journey

151

but right now it is about eight o 'clock well 10 to 8 at night

152

and everything is packed like my suitcase is in the car everything is ready we're going to go out

153

and enjoy like one more night in Spain

154

and then tomorrow at I think 7am I need to leave to go to the airport to start my journey to Canada.

155

I will see you then.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
