Hello, welcome to a new video on the channel Peace of French.
2
I hope you're going well.
3
If you're new on the channel, I'm Elsa.
4
And on this channel YouTube, I teach you French in a natural and authentic way.
5
In my last video, I prepared my valise to go to Portugal for a long time.
6
And it's almost a month that we are in Portugal with my friend Doron and our dog.
7
First of all, the trip in the plane with the dog is very well.
8
Everything is fine.
9
It has not looked traumatized.
10
For our first month in Portugal, we have reserved a living room in a co-living space.
11
A co-living space is a little between a hotel and a co-location.
12
Here, in fact, we have our little house.
13
In this house, we have a room, a salon, a small room, a bathroom, and a bathroom with a shower and toilet.
14
And we share the rooms with other residents.
15
In this particular place, in the summer, it's more a hotel, we say, classic, where we are going to the room at night.
16
But during the summer, between November and April, we are going to the room at the end.
17
So it allows to lower the room at a low price.
18
So it's what we did.
19
We bought this apartment for a month from February to March.
20
And these are our last days here.
21
We are in three days.
22
We are in the lundi, the 24th of March.
23
And we are in the jeudi, the 27th of March.
24
So these are our last days here.
25
So I wanted to show you a little bit the place because it is really cool.
26
First of all, this place is dog friendly.
27
So it was of course, it was indispensable for us because we travel with our dog, which is in plus, quite big.
28
It's a very big dog.
29
So we really wanted to find a dog friendly place.
30
And here it's really perfect because there is a large garden, a huge garden.
31
So she can walk in the garden, she doesn't need to be attached, so it's really cool.
32
She can walk and in addition, there are other dogs, so she can play with the other dogs.
33
She is very, very happy.
34
And there are several spaces shared with the other residents, Notamment, a large kitchen.
35
We have a small kitchen in the house, but there is also a large kitchen.
36
So it's pretty cool to be able to cook like it is.
37
There's a bowl, a blender, there's everything that needs to cook.
38
So it's cool.
39
There's a yoga studio to do yoga.
40
There's an co-working space, so we can work.
41
There's an exterior kitchen.
42
So it's also very, very nice.
43
So the place is really cool.
44
It's located in a small village, a small village.
45
And then we are at one minute of the ocean.
46
Here, it's the Atlantic Ocean, in Portugal.
47
So it was really a good solution for us to start here.
48
Our journey has also allowed to meet the world,
49
to meet people, both travelers who reside in the hotel, but also workers who work here.
50
There are also many classes who are organized.
51
There's yoga, yoga, so it also allowed to meet people who live in this region.
52
So it was really a very good option for us.
53
But, there's still a but, I would say that the only negative point is the heat.
54
The heat, in fact, here and from what I've heard in Portugal, in general, it's a lot of heat.
55
So we have in our room a pile and we are heating up the wood.
56
But the house is a small house in wood, which is very isolated.
57
So it makes it feel cold.
58
Especially when we passed the end of the summer, as I said, we are arrived from February to March, it makes it feel cold.
59
So, luckily, I had brought my bouillette, the indispensable bouillette.
60
Franchement, it saved us this rain.
61
You know, you put the water in the air and we put it in the bed to heat it because, frankly, the night it's cold.
62
And in addition, we didn't have chance on the weather.
63
It's been bad weather in the month of March.
64
Apparently, it's not normal, what we say the locals say.
65
It's quite habitable because it has really much, much, and in fact, the weather changes very quickly.
66
We have a little the impression of being in a tropical country where the weather changes very quickly.
67
At one moment, it's a big sun, we bronze outside and two minutes after, but really two minutes after, it pleases to Torrent.
68
We have an expression for this to talk about it.
69
In French, we call it the gibboulet of Mars, which have a lieu in general in March, in April, so at the end of the summer, at the beginning of spring.
70
The gibboulet of Mars are averse, a few imprevisibles, which alternates with the periods of the sun.
71
So I think it's normal in March, that we have these changes of weather abrupt,
72
brutal, but from what we understood, it was not normal.
73
This month of March was quite extreme, but well, we saw a little bit of the sun every day.
74
So for us, as we saw that we have a few minutes of sun every day, we are already happy.
75
And then it allowed us to work, we took this time to work.
76
I worked with a free quiz for you to evaluate your level of French.
77
So if you want to evaluate your French level, to know if you are A1, A2, B1, B2, etc. I created a free quiz,
78
I leave you here if you want to do it, and also in the bar of information.
79
From what I saw, the weather has looked like a little bit and it should be beautiful from now.
80
I made a video where I spoke about the expressions in relation to the weather because it's a universal subject.
81
So if you want to see how to complain about the weather in French, I'll leave the video here.
82
As I said, we are the last days in this co-living.
83
And on the day we take the road to go to France.
84
We're going to visit my family, my parents who live in France.
85
And we decided to go in a car, or more exactly in a van, because we bought a van.
86
This is also the great news, we bought a van.
87
It took us a lot to find out these last weeks.
88
We went to see several vans, we tested a van.
89
We finally found our pleasure and we are officially proprietor of the van.
90
We will go to the store all the time, we will go to the store van.
91
On a enfin trouvé notre bonheur et on est officiellement propriétaire du van et on va aller le récupérer tout à l'heure,
92
on va aller le chercher tout à l'heure.
93
Donc si vous voulez, je vous le montrerai dans une prochaine vidéo.
94
N'hésitez pas à me dire dans les commentaires si vous voulez que je vous fasse un van tour en français toujours.
95
On a déjà voyagé en van au Portugal il y a deux ans, je crois I had made videos at the time.
96
I will leave you here and also in the box of info.
97
We had really liked this mode of travel.
98
It's a mode of travel that gives a great freedom, a great flexibility.
99
You can really change your plans at the last moment.
100
You don't have to do check-in, check-out.
101
We have all these things with each other.
102
And it's really very practical.
103
We had really liked this way of traveling.
104
So we decided to buy our own van to be able to travel easily in Europe,
105
to be able to see my parents with our dog.
106
Yes, we organize our lives according to our dog, but it was important for us that she could come with us easily, without problems.
107
So we are going to France.
108
If we look at the GPS, to go from where we are currently, to where we are currently, it's about 17 hours of route.
109
But don't worry, we won't do 17 hours at once.
110
The idea is to take our time, maybe one week, 10 days, we don't know exactly, to arrive in France,
111
in passing of course by Portugal, we'll stop in Spain, we'll stop in France.
112
These are our projects for the next week.
113
On the next week, we must leave this place, so I think we'll take the road on the next week.
114
And then, what's great with this van, it's that we can really be in autonomy, in off-grid, because there's everything we need.
115
There's a solar panel on the floor, there's a fridge, a shower, a toilet, and I'll show you all this in the video of Van Tour.
116
I hope this little update of our life in Portugal you've enjoyed, you've learned, you've learned the vocabulary in French.
117
I'll see you soon for another video.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
