Pratica di Shadowing: I Survived On €0.01 For 1 Week - Day 2 - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

Good morning, sleepyheads.

It is day two of trying to make it back home to America, starting with just one penny in Europe.

Yesterday, I started in Paris.

I was able to get a bus ticket here, a flight to the next country, and a baguette.

Paris was very successful.

I think we can all agree on that.

The bus ride was overnight.

It was from roughly midnight to 7 a.m.

For 31 euros, I mean, it was good.

It was a good deal.

It was shelter for the night.

It was transportation to the next country.

And when I got off, I was a little confused.

I was.

I have no idea where I am or how to get to where I'm going.

Also, I have never seen a bird like that.

Like that bird right there.

No offense.

I like it.

I like the bird.

And my inventory so far is really just a marker and a notepad, or half of a notepad at this point.

And since we're only sitting at 9 euro and 79 cents, I have some serious goals for today.

To tell you them, I gotta go into the city.

And I'll reveal where I am as well.

My friends, I have made it to Amsterdam.

I've always wanted to come here.

It's so fun.

There's canals everywhere.

There's bikes literally every square inch.

I don't know how big that is.

It's awesome.

I'm loving it.

Speaking of I'm loving it, I need to go get some breakfast.

And then I'll tell you my game plan.

Well, if that's not the cutest McDonald's I've seen in my life.

I figured out how to get the international McDonald's out, by the way

so I think I'm gonna get some deals from now on.

I'm gonna go inside, it looks adorable.

Okay, boom.

Chili chicken is happening.

They're playing Empire State of Mind by Alicia Keys.

This is amazing.

Why are we not spelling it like that in America?

Y'all, this is a little reckless, but I want this so bad, please.

Oh, no, no, no. All right, 455, let's do it.

Yummy.

breakfast, a chili chicken sandwich, and a latte.

It's pretty cold here at Amsterdam, even though it's summer.

I like it.

I like the weather.

It's fun.

We do only have 5 euro and 24 cents after this, but that's enough for my money-making method today.

So I'm gonna enjoy this meal.

I'm not gonna feel guilty about it.

Chicken.

Pretty nice.

Looks good.

Makes me feel like a giant.

It's not that big.

Let's try it.

Mmm.

That's really good.

It's kind of like sweet sour chicken.

That was awesome.

I just spilled my latte all over myself.

Now that I've finished my latte, it's time for my game plan.

I made a massive decision yesterday to buy a bus ticket here to Amsterdam

and a flight out of Amsterdam in a couple days.

That's going to make it easier on me later, but much harder on me right now because I have, I mean, you see it.

524. It's Not looking good.

Hi.

Sorry.

So here's what I want to accomplish today.

When I got to Amsterdam, the first thing I noticed was the bikes.

There are insane numbers of bikes in this city.

So my goal today is to rent a bike and become a local.

Point-point proven.

It's about 10 euro to rent a bike for 24 hours.

The second thing I noticed is that there are an infinite number of cute businesses.

And they all have windows.

Last year in Vegas, I cleaned one business's windows for a total of $60.

$40.

This year I'm gonna try to do the same thing except maybe charge five euro per window something like

that and once I earn money from that I need to find a place to sleep tonight hostels are like 40 euro.

That's honestly a bag I don't know if I'm gonna spend

that hammock 15 euro that feels like a good investment So obviously I have a tall task in front of me today.

I have a lot to do.

We should get moving well then Lots and what gone Holland That's less let's get it in Dutch

I'm stood on this city is gonna be spotless when I'm through it

Let's get it.

I am in the department store in the cleaning aisle.

So here's what we're cooking with.

$2 for window spray, $2.25 for a squeegee.

That's going to leave us pretty much a euro left.

But we have a client, so I'm happy.

Can you get a bag?

No, that's okay.

$4.25.

There you go.

100

Thank you.

101

I'm okay.

102

Thanks.

103

Have a good one.

104

Bag secured.

105

All right, guys.

106

We got our cleaning supplies and our client is literally right here I believe we have six large windows to clean.

107

Hopefully he doesn't question my setup

108

So these are the five six windows we're gonna clean they

109

overlook the canal I feel like I'm getting an experience right now.

110

It's a privilege.

111

Oh my gosh, dude.

112

Look at this All right window number one,

113

let's get it They provided a ladder

114

Just finished our first job at Fashion Deal.

115

The windows are looking great.

116

Guys, check out Fashion Deal if you're in Amsterdam.

117

The place is insane.

118

And the windows are so clean.

119

I didn't agree on a price with Mel.

120

I kind of told him I was like trying to clean windows for 5 euro.

121

So I don't know if he's gonna...

122

I don't know.

123

I'm happy with anything.

124

That took like an hour.

125

We got the whole staff over here.

126

All right, guys.

127

Do you like them?

128

Do you wanna go check them out?

129

I actually checked them.

130

This is for the hard work.

131

132

133

You guys are the best.

134

We're gonna get home to America.

135

Thank you, guys.

136

Mwah.

137

I forgot something.

138

What's that?

139

I went out to a special store for this.

140

141

142

143

151

Okay, job number one complete.

152

153

He put it in an envelope.

154

That's the sign of a hardworking man.

155

Well, he said for the hard work.

156

Real recognized real.

157

Nah, but he gave me water and Coca-Cola as well.

158

So this is a generous guy.

159

I'm like nervous.

160

I feel like I'm on deal or no deal or something.

161

It's just a ticket to America.

162

Oh, oh.

163

No, he didn't bro.

164

Where is he?

165

166

168

Mel.

169

Mel.

170

Can everyone just comment MEL with a question mark?

171

In all caps.

172

I need the comment section to be spammed with it.

173

I'm confused.

174

Dude, that's worth putting in an envelope.

175

That's crazy.

176

Bro, come here.

177

That's insane.

178

179

180

181

182

211

212

Take care.

213

See ya.

214

Y'all, we are up to 110 euro and 99 cents.

215

That's insane.

216

It probably isn't reflected in the video, but that was like many hours of window cleaning slash asking people for window cleaning.

217

But obviously it was a huge win.

218

This is the craziest thing.

219

I think last year in Las Vegas, it was the same situation.

220

I basically had nothing and then we window cleaned and it felt like I was on top of the world.

221

That's exactly how I feel right now.

222

But yeah, got to figure out sleeping tonight.

223

And I want a bike.

224

Look at all these bikes.

225

I can't not have a bike, or at least ride a bike, in Amsterdam.

226

That one's nice.

227

I also think I'm gonna take a break and eat some Stroopwafel that Mel gave me, and a Coca-Cola.

228

Just gonna consume some calories.

229

Sounds like a good plan to me.

230

What a day.

231

I have four Stroopwafels here from Mel.

232

He also gave me a Coca-Cola, and I'm gonna eat some.

233

I'm gonna eat this now.

234

Stroopwafels are a big deal in Amsterdam.

235

I've actually heard many people say the word Stroopwafel more times

236

than I've heard in my entire- I've never heard anyone say it before.

237

Here, I've heard it at least a dozen times today.

238

We got a baguette in Paris, we got a Stroopwafel in Amsterdam.

239

What's next?

240

Oh, it smells so good, dude.

241

Mm-mm, no!

242

I've never been happier.

243

I'm looking at a- I don't even know what to call that.

244

A canal cruise, go through the canal in the middle of Amsterdam eating a Stroopwafel.

245

Mmm.

246

I love Amsterdam.

247

First Stroopwafel.

248

Enjoy.

249

Yummy!

250

I got three more of those puppies.

251

Dinner!

252

Hayley's gonna be so mad at me. Is this real?

253

What?

254

It's a tiny car.

255

I love it here.

256

I made it to the bike shop.

257

I'm going to rent a bike for 24 hours for 9 euro and 90 cents.

258

Let's do it.

259

Oh, yeah.

260

They got some bikes in there.

261

Let's hit it.

262

That's it.

263

Perfect.

264

Sounds good.

265

Thank you, Butcher.

266

Appreciate it.

267

Have a good one.

268

Take care.

269

All right.

270

I got a bike.

271

It's not the best bike, but it's my bike for the next 24 hours.

272

Wow.

273

Howdy.

274

Look at these canals!

275

Oh, it's windy!

276

We don't have weather like this in Texas right now, that's for sure.

277

Albert who?

278

I was trying to think of a one-liner.

279

I'm gonna do it again.

280

Hope this place has deodorant.

281

Now that's what I called.

282

I'm going inside inside.

283

I couldn't think of anything.

284

I need toothpaste and I need deodorant and a toothbrush.

285

It smells so good in here.

286

Bruh, 69 cent toothpaste.

287

It's huge.

288

Is this accurate?

289

Is this toothpaste?

290

It is.

291

10 pasta.

292

125. Don't mind if I do.

293

Excuse me.

294

Do you guys have deodorant?

295

Okay, spray on me.

296

Oh, okay.

297

Thank you.

298

Wait, what the?

299

Oh, that smells good.

300

This is our haul.

301

Let's go spend some money.

302

Oh, don't tempt me.

303

Don't tempt me. Should I do it?

304

No, no, no, no. Oh, amazing.

305

Bonus.

306

Thank you.

307

Have a good day.

308

Bye-bye.

309

That's right.

310

Howdy.

311

You gotta soak it up.

312

I'm not gonna be in Amsterdam for long.

313

That was a haul and a half.

314

I still have 95 euros and 27 cents.

315

Come here, come here.

316

What are you doing over there?

317

Dang, the lens is a little foggy.

318

This looks like a lo-fi music video.

319

Such a vibe.

320

Ayo, toothbrush check.

321

This is long overdue.

322

Time to find out if this is really toothpaste.

323

That's the last thing you want to be saying as an adult.

324

Okay.

325

Yeah, that's toothpaste.

326

Oh my gosh.

327

And then deodorant.

328

I'm excited about this one.

329

This one smells good.

330

That's huge.

331

That actually smells so good.

332

So I currently have 95 euros and 27 cents.

333

In my head, I have a few options of what I can do to sleep tonight.

334

The first option, like what I did last year, I hammocked in most cities.

335

I bought a hammock super early on are not too expensive.

336

So that would be my preference.

337

But I don't think the Netherlands likes hammocks at all.

338

So I want to be respectful of that.

339

So option two would be a hotel.

340

A hotel costing pretty much all of our money.

341

80, 90 euro.

342

Or finally, the third option, a hostel.

343

I found a hostel for 25 euro and 10 cents.

344

It's actually really close by.

345

Ideally, they have a bathroom, like a shower.

346

That'd be insane.

347

But realistically, I think that's, I think that's our best option.

348

So I'm booking it.

349

I booked it voila.

350

We got ourselves a hostel free Wi-Fi, baby.

351

It looks nice It looks good.

352

I'm gonna bike there right now, and I'll meet you there Oh,

353

baby here we are Hotel Anne-Marie looks cute All right,

354

this is home for the night Alright, Hotel Emory.

355

Hey guys, do you guys know where Check It is?

356

It's right here?

357

It's here.

358

What is the name of the reservation?

359

Ryan Trahan.

360

How many person?

361

Just one.

362

Amazing.

363

Let's go.

364

checked into my hostel.

365

The hostel is a huge upgrade for me from the bus.

366

I love the bus.

367

I did.

368

I slept several minutes last night.

369

No, it's fine.

370

Amsterdam was good to us today.

371

It was crazy.

372

Shout out to Mel and Coco for your generosity.

373

You guys literally changed the trajectory of this challenge for me.

374

With the amount of money we have to make each day on average, it feels impossible, but so far back-to-back days, we've done it.

375

It's really mind-blowing to me.

376

I've never been To any of these countries and there's just nice people everywhere.

377

It's so encouraging.

378

It's so cool All that to say let's not forget what this whole series is about

379

and that's raising money for water org every five dollars We raise gets one person lasting access to safe water

380

or sanitation our goal is 100,000 and yesterday we passed 20,000 on day one, which is crazy.

381

So here we go.

382

I'm gonna check.

383

I'm gonna check donations Oh my gosh We have raised forty one thousand six hundred twenty one dollars That is insane.

384

385

409

That's what I think, man.

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.
