Cheers to a new day.

Cheers.

Welcome back to Learn English with Camille and most of the time.

Calvin.

We are so glad you're here for this video or podcast.

Today we are going to be having a natural English conversation.

You will learn words that we will say.

This isn't scripted.

I just have some questions that I'm going to ask Calvin about,

can you live without this thing?

And I will also answer them as well.

I can't live without Camille.

I can't live without Calvin.

That is also the truth.

I can't even film YouTube videos without Calvin because he sets everything up for me.

He publishes my books, which if you haven't seen them already,

actually, I think we have at least 12 books published now.

For children, beginner, intermediate, advanced,

dialogue, short stories, grammar, we have you covered.

You can find them on Amazon or my website.

And I just want to say thank you as well to the members of this channel for supporting our work,

for believing in us.

You guys are the best.

We appreciate you guys.

Yes.

Also, I don't know if you said the books always come with audio.

Yes, that is a good tip.

Audio is important when we're learning.

So Calvin, first things first, be honest.

Could you live without coffee?

No, 100% no. I could not live without coffee in my life.

Tea.

Tea?

Could you live without tea?

I could live without tea.

I could.

Yes, but coffee is my, it's my red line.

Can't cross it.

it's my go-to drug as well

but I'm not like a 20 cups of coffee person a

day no generally I have one cup in the morning

when I wake up

and it's like my sacred ritual I have it with my quiet time where I read

and write and pray yeah and I just love it like

so much that first cup of coffee I'm getting jealous right now.

Tea.

I also have tea every day, usually in the afternoon.

Yeah.

Sometimes I have two teas a day.

Yeah.

Well, it's less caffeine.

Yeah.

It's okay.

Yeah.

I mean, we focus more on quality over quantity in coffee.

And so we buy more expensive,

but high quality, well-roasted, well-sourced beans.

Yes.

Special tea coffee.

We pay, you know, 13 to 20 euros for the bag.

But it is the cream of the crop.

Yeah, it's worth it.

It's worth it.

And yeah, we love it.

Some of our Brazilian friends have insulted us comparing it to Nescaf, but...

They did.

It was funny.

Nothing like that.

Yeah, they're good friends.

Yeah, they are.

We joke around.

Yeah, it would be funny if they watched this video and messaged me.

Let us know in the comments.

Yeah.

Can you live without your smartphone?

Okay, not forever.

I'm just going to put a limit on this.

Could you live without your smartphone for one week?

I would want to live without my smartphone.

I think like each day,

you know, we see so many studies

that are just telling us how bad our like technology is

and like from every everything from the exposure to bad waves or really strong waves to the

psychological effects of social media all that stuff so for a week

if i could do it i would 100 percent yeah yeah yeah i would probably go crazy day one

and two yeah maybe day three

and then yeah we'd see we'd see yeah it is really weird

because it comes like like a second hand you know it's just kind of always there,

always there, what came in.

I'm not one to be like scrolling like this but I do post on social media.

And we use AI like just you know asking questions about our kids' health or our health.

Or learning languages.

Yeah or where there's more sunny weather.

Yeah where should we move next.

Yeah that's true.

I think yeah and then language learning is where I use my phone a lot as well.

I haven't been into it as much lately,

so I've been reading physical books.

100

I just finished literally two novels that were 500 pages each.

101

And it's a trilogy, So that means there's three books.

102

It's called the Mark of the Lion series.

103

It would be for advanced readers, but it is phenomenal.

104

It's hard to put it down.

105

I just would be reading until really late at night.

106

I just couldn't get enough of the book.

107

Yeah.

108

Yeah, books I should say.

109

Yeah, books are always good.

110

I enjoy those.

111

Could you live without books?

112

No. I don't think I could.

113

I mean I could but I wouldn't want to.

114

Like if you had e-readers.

115

Oh, I still love to have a paper book.

116

Even our book sales, I had a friend asking me,

117

do you sell many e-books?

118

And Calvin checked and 10% on Amazon are to e-readers.

119

Yeah, like Kindles.

120

And the rest are the ones that get the physical book.

121

Yeah, and we get it.

122

Yeah, we like the physical books too.

123

We try to buy physical books,

124

even though we kind of have a mix, you know?

125

because it's hard to get English books here in Portugal without spending an arm and a leg.

126

So yeah, we have to rely on our library back in the United States for some books.

127

Yes, exactly.

128

Calvin, could you live without music?

129

No, I can't.

130

No, music is a thing that I think it's therapeutic.

131

I think it helps your mood change.

132

Also, just learning to play music on my ukulele and the guitar now.

133

And yeah, I think it's such a gift to humanity to have music and to be able to express ourselves.

134

I think music is a very key aspect to a healthy society.

135

and music also shares where the society is.

136

It's kind of like the prophetic voice in a society.

137

So, no, I can't and I don't think anybody should without music.

138

Yeah, it would be very hard.

139

I mean, I just had worship music on this morning when I was getting ready and,

140

yeah, it's just life-giving.

141

I love music as well.

142

Yeah, especially, yeah, with the aspect of faith,

143

it's kind of like a double whammy.

144

You know, you have very uplifting messages set to notes.

145

That's true.

146

Mm-hmm.

147

What about lights?

148

So we have electricity, like we can be filming,

149

we can wash our clothes, have our dishwasher.

150

We just don't have physical lights to turn on.

151

So you have to depend on candles or lanterns.

152

That would be trippy.

153

I know.

154

Go back to like the medieval times.

155

It'd be kind of fun for the first like week.

156

And then, man, it's so nice to just flip the switch.

157

I know.

158

We have these little lights by our bed or on our nightstands that we used to read with.

159

Yeah, it's such a good invention.

160

Thank you, Thomas Edison or somebody before him that doesn't get the credit.

161

Yeah, I know, right?

162

Yeah.

163

Yeah, lights are important.

164

I do like candles, but I would choose a light.

165

And then also to have candles when we want to have them.

166

That's true.

167

Because candles, I think, can also put out bad things into the air.

168

Yeah, I can a little bit.

169

I mean, yeah.

170

Depending on what kind of candlesticks you're burning.

171

That's true.

172

I think soy ones are really good.

173

Soy candles are better.

174

I don't think they were thinking about that in the Middle Ages.

175

No, they were just thinking, how can we see?

176

And their lifespan was like 40 years old.

177

Oh, gosh, yeah.

178

But there was a lot of things that could kill you back then.

179

So interesting.

180

Yeah.

181

Okay, let's see what else is on my list.

182

Okay.

183

Could you live without speaking for just a week?

184

Okay.

185

A week?

186

Oof.

187

That is tough.

188

We've done a day.

189

We did a silent retreat.

190

Remember that?

191

Yeah, in Mexico.

192

We were doing some missions training.

193

I do remember.

194

And we just decided to do a silent retreat.

195

And it was interesting.

196

It was very interesting.

197

You know, we don't realize how noisy our world is

198

and even your interactions with people and even feeling like you have to,

199

like in a social setting, start talking.

200

But when you're all, we had like maybe 10 people and we didn't speak for a whole day.

201

And we even went for a walk and there was like a neighbor and we didn't know what to do,

202

like because uh yeah yeah exactly that's pretty much what we did

203

and uh and then you would sit the craziest is

204

when you sit down to eat oh with like 10 20 people

205

that aren't speaking yeah it's like it's weird i would recommend it it's very interesting like just don't speak for

206

while you eat with people and then you'll be like whoa

207

I don't know even I don't even know how to describe it

208

but no I wouldn't want to do it I don't think

209

I could do it for a week no even a day

210

was a challenge it was I enjoyed it though just uh there was like a calm there was a calm

211

when like you didn't have that pressure and

212

and you could just gave you a rest from Spanish as well also in the yeah because we were in Mexico Yeah.

213

Yes.

214

So that would be interesting.

215

A full week would be definitely challenging.

216

Yeah.

217

Yeah.

218

I would feel like I would go crazy,

219

but man, there's some monks or things,

220

people that, yeah, they go,

221

I don't know, I feel like a while without speaking.

222

Yeah.

223

If they're up in the mountains somewhere.

224

I'm just like reflecting right now and I'm thinking of how much I speak.

225

Yeah.

226

Like speaking with our children in the morning,

227

you know, making sure they have everything

228

school speaking with you processing how our kids are doing yeah

229

thing today what we have recording the audio for these books

230

yeah speaking uh i was recording audio exactly for a new

231

book coming doing these youtube videos right now like it's part

232

of life crazy i think it would be very very hard yeah i agree yeah

233

but maybe like he said just even a few hours of

234

silence like take a meal where all the family just says nothing

235

and see yeah that would be we should do

236

that with our kids yeah i think it could be interesting

237

and i mean it's in in some christian traditions there is

238

like um a practice of daily silence you know maybe it's even just 20 minutes 30 minutes yeah yeah solitude

239

and you just you know it really helps center you and you know focus on what's important

240

focus on god you know maybe meditating in your brain about

241

things um yeah interesting yeah interesting questions yeah good one good

242

one camille what about i'm looking at my list down here

243

oh without spending money for a week i would like to do

244

that i really would say like all of our bills they happen to not be on

245

that week we don't eat out we get groceries maybe like

246

before we prepare you know we we just yeah we don't

247

spend any money could we do it yeah i mean money has i mean they call it what retail therapy

248

so people do it for stress relief they do it for entertainment I mean, we are Americans.

249

We spend money.

250

Yeah, we shop.

251

So but I mean, I think we've adopted over the years a lot better relationship to spending,

252

but we still do.

253

We spend a lot.

254

Today we have a stovetop and some lights coming.

255

Yeah.

256

So it's tough.

257

It would be tough to do it for.

258

These are like a stovetop is because ours is cracked and broken.

259

And I just want a stovetop that's not and the lights are

260

because the light is not working my son did add a ninja costume into our amazon car

261

and i was like i'll ask dad about it i don't

262

know did you order it no i didn't talk to you

263

about it i wanted to be like does he really need

264

one like it's like 20 euros yeah oh yeah the ninja

265

costume i don't know what would you guys do should we buy the ninja costume

266

or not i like know that society functions because of earning

267

and spending but then i like to think of myself as minimalist

268

and i was doing that while we were traveling

269

because we were in many places we had to carry our stuff

270

so imagine nine months i could live with my stuff in

271

a half of a suitcase calvin has the other half

272

and that's been able to live combined years yeah

273

and you realize how little you can live without but

274

when you get a house and then you're starting to want all the comforts

275

and then just slowly slowly you start getting stuff and then

276

when you travel you're like i'm coming home so you can buy souvenirs and then,

277

yeah, you're spending money.

278

So, yeah, I shake Shane Claiborne says we have enough for everybody's need,

279

but not for everybody's greed.

280

That's a tricky little thing to think about.

281

Not tricky, like a good thing to think about yeah so

282

and the bible says it's more blessed to give than to receive

283

so what if we all did that if we became much more generous

284

and didn't spend so much or

285

if we did spend it would be on others might be a better place i think

286

so yes okay what about the next thing on my list

287

okay could you live without alcohol i could yeah yeah i

288

could easily as well yeah i mean i enjoy it every once in a

289

while but um it's not something

290

that i'm like i need in my life what about the

291

sea could you live without having the sea nearby we can see the sea

292

when it's not raining yeah yeah right there i've lived most

293

of my life i would say most of my life maybe

294

not by the sea it's close now though me too yeah

295

this is one of the few times we've lived here in barcelona

296

and uh hawaii hawaii oh yeah

297

so i guess we have lived by the sea i personally

298

adore the sea it's one of my favorite places in the

299

world here in northern portugal the sea is very cold

300

and it's also very windy usually there

301

so maybe i could live without it i don't know i've been thinking about this going back

302

and forth if you If you think about our trips,

303

like our last trip to Europe and Turkey,

304

we were almost always by the sea.

305

Yes, we choose sea towns.

306

We're trying to look out the route.

307

We went to Antalya, we went to Izmir,

308

we went to Canakkale, we spent time in Salerno.

309

Yeah, the northern area, the town in the north,

310

you know, on the Marmara Sea.

311

We were on the Marmara Sea.

312

Air deck?

313

Air deck, yeah.

314

Yeah.

315

Vondurma.

316

We do.

317

We do travel by the sea a lot.

318

Yes.

319

So we do prefer the sea,

320

but to live without it, I think we could.

321

Maybe if there was a river or a mountain or just like views.

322

Views and water, though.

323

Yeah.

324

Okay.

325

Last one.

326

What about living without your favorite food for the rest of your life?

327

I could do it because I have a lot of favorites.

328

Okay.

329

But if it was like all of them,

330

then I just have to eat like porridge or something or like oatmeal every day.

331

I'd be like, oh, and I mean a lot of prisoners,

332

you know, in bad places,

333

they eat less than that or worse things.

334

Yeah, that's true.

335

We're very blessed to have a variety of good options.

336

Yes, but yeah, so it would be hard.

337

I don't think I could do it.

338

Yeah.

339

No. Well, my favorite food is pizza, like especially Italian pizza.

340

That's your favorite?

341

I love it, yeah.

342

Oh, interesting.

343

I mean, I really like a good sushi roll or Indian food is up there.

344

Thai, but yeah, pizza.

345

Good Thai food.

346

Pizza just takes the cake for me.

347

It's a winner.

348

It's always a winner.

349

That'd be a tough one.

350

It would be hard to live without it, actually.

351

I could do it, but I wouldn't choose it.

352

I think a lot of these are like,

353

I could, but I don't want to.

354

Yeah, it's true.

355

It's true.

356

Food is such another beautiful part.

357

It's like art, you know?

358

People that really value it,

359

the cooks or the chefs.

360

you know and

361

so it's it's important in society to have good food yeah

362

you know it's true therapeutic especially like she made an amazing

363

lasagna I'm excited to eat the leftovers in about 10 minutes yeah

364

and it has meat in it so I won't be eating it

365

but I made it for my family she is a saint with

366

that last comment I think it's a good time to wrap up the video

367

and on that high note yeah I hope this was a good conversation for you guys that you learned a lot.

368

Please let us know in the comments if you could live without some of those things that we mentioned.

369

Or not live with them.

370

Yeah, exactly.

371

Or live, yeah.

372

What did I say now?

373

No, I think you said it right.

374

I messed you up.

375

Okay.

376

If you could live without those things.

377

Yes.

378

Yeah.

379

Should I do the ending again?

380

That's fine.

381

Okay.

382

We made mistakes, guys.

383

So have a great rest of your day.

384

If you made it to the end,

385

thank you so much for your support and we'll see you real soon like subscribe share thanks bye
