Sometimes I will go for a walk around Huan Kim Lake.

What's up everyone?

Ciao coba!

Và chào mừng coba!

Qua chào lại với podcast Slow and Clear của What's Up English.

My name is Carter.

And today you're going to learn how to talk about your daily routine.

Not only that, but you're going to learn many different activities and fun things that people do.

And not even just fun things,

but things that people do in Vietnam.

So this will be really useful for you to make plans with someone.

For you to talk about what you did on the weekend.

for you to simply make small talk with other people.

So first, I'm going to tell you guys about my daily routine in Hanoi.

And spoiler alert, it's really nothing too special.

It's very normal, I would say.

I wake up.

If it's in the winter,

then it can be pretty hard to get out of bed because your bed is so warm.

Outside is so cold.

Even in summer in Vietnam,

it can be hard to get out of your room because you have the air conditioner on and it feels so cool.

And outside of your room is really hot.

But yeah, so I wake up and then I usually go outside and get some sunlight into my eyes.

I'm not the best sleeper.

I have trouble sleeping.

So I researched online to go outside,

get sun in your eyes in the morning,

and also try to raise your body temperature by doing some exercise.

So sometimes I will walk to the rooftop of my apartment

building through the stairs from a very low floor to the top floor

and that is my exercise and then I get the sunlight on the rooftop.

So after I walk from my floor to the rooftop,

I'm usually feeling pretty hot from the exercise.

And then I stand on the rooftop for about five or ten minutes, get the sunlight.

Then I go back down.

I brew a coffee with the Vietnamese Phin.

In English, maybe it's just called the Vietnamese coffee filter or we call it a Vietnamese drip coffee.

So I brew one of those with a little bit of condensed milk

and a pinch of salt and then while that's brewing I will maybe go on my computer,

plan my day, check the tasks that I have to do,

usually some form of work.

Because early in the morning,

I'm still in a relaxed mood.

And in the morning, I feel like it's easier to focus.

So when my coffee is ready, I drink my coffee.

And then sometimes I will do a quick workout.

like before it was only a short small workout

and then after I drink the coffee I'm like oh I'm pumped up

so then maybe I'll do a workout and then after

that often I will eat and then go to work

so what I eat in the morning is pretty much only two things it is either pho or oatmeal.

It depends on what I feel like.

But to be honest, I feel like I could eat pho every day and not get tired of it.

Well, I do eat pho every day and I don't really feel tired of it.

So I don't know.

There's something magic about that dish,

to be honest, because you can eat it so often and you don't get tired of it.

It's crazy.

So yeah, I eat, I go to work.

My job is at a middle school.

That's all I will say.

After work, I usually come straight home because at that time is rush hour.

And rush hour, guys, is usually between like five and six.

it can go a little bit longer to 6 30

but that's when the traffic is the worst

and then I drive home by the way we can call

that a commute so my commute from home to work is not too far so then I go home um,

relax a little bit.

And then, um, for dinner,

I will often order food or I will go out for dinner with a friend.

I don't often cook at home, to be honest.

I should cook at home more,

but it just feels so much more convenient and still cheap to eat out or order food.

um then after dinner I usually work on my YouTube channel until about 10

or 11 o'clock then I just start to relax

and get ready for bed and uh oh I I forgot one important detail of my routine.

At the end of the night,

I always play with my two cats, Di and Theo.

I will show you these cats on a live stream.

But yeah, they are brothers.

I love them so much.

They're awesome cats.

And they really help me relax at the end of the day.

Yeah, they're really awesome.

So that is my daily routine on a normal weekday.

Nothing too interesting, right?

It's nothing special.

I think many people just,

you know, most people live lives like that.

We get up, we do this thing,

we go to work, come home, we do that thing.

And the fun things we do are in between all of the things we must do, right?

So on the weekend, Sometimes I will go for a walk around Huan Kim Lake.

Sometimes I will play badminton with a friend,

go out to a cafe with a friend,

maybe go to a nice restaurant in Westlake because Westlake has a lot of international restaurants And I really like international food,

like Mexican food or Indian food.

So now I'm going to talk about activities that I see people doing a lot in Hanoi.

100

And these things, if you live in Ho Chi Minh City,

101

if you live in some other big city,

102

or even in the countryside,

103

you can use these things to talk about what you do.

104

So, for example, in Hanoi,

105

you can go to the night market.

106

You can wander around there.

107

You don't necessarily need to buy anything,

108

but you can just take a look at what people are selling.

109

You can go to a cafe and just hang out.

110

one of the great things about cafes is that you don't really need any reason to go to a cafe, right?

111

You can go there to work or you can just call your friend.

112

You want to hang out?

113

Sure.

114

Okay, let's go to a cafe.

115

And then you just sit at the cafe and enjoy a coffee, maybe a tea.

116

Many people gather at cafes and they don't even like talk to each other, right?

117

They just sit there on their phones,

118

but at least they're still together.

119

So they enjoy just being next to one another.

120

What else?

121

I see many young kids rollerblading.

122

Maybe some of you call this roller skating.

123

I think it's the same thing,

124

but in Canada, we call it rollerblading.

125

And they do this in the parks and they go really fast.

126

It's actually really fun if you try it.

127

I notice in Vietnam, pretty much only kids do the rollerblading.

128

But if you're an adult and you want to try it, try it.

129

It's seriously, it's a lot of fun and it's a really good workout.

130

When tourists come to Hanoi,

131

they can go, or any city.

132

When I say Hanoi, I mean anywhere, basically, in Vietnam.

133

They can go on a food tour.

134

They can visit the Temple of Literature.

135

Or they can go to the prison museum.

136

There's definitely a few things to do.

137

Other things I often see people doing are sitting on the sidewalk and eating street food.

138

To be honest, personally, I'm not a huge fan of street food

139

because most of it is like processed and fried and just not really healthy for you.

140

like those meat sticks, not titian,

141

but the ones where it's like a stick and you put the different meats on it,

142

like the balls, the pink balls, the yellow balls.

143

I don't even know what those are called,

144

but I see they're very common.

145

So yeah, you could chill on the street and eat that street food.

146

And

147

so those are a lot of things you could use to make plans to talk about what you did on the weekend.

148

For different sports, we can say,

149

you know, play football, play badminton, play table tennis.

150

We don't use hit, right?

151

We don't say hit tennis.

152

When we're talking about walks,

153

you can say, go for a walk,

154

have a walk, go for a stroll,

155

go for a run, go for a jog.

156

That all sounds very natural.

157

You can say, go jogging.

158

So for example, oh, tomorrow,

159

I'm going to go for a jog.

160

Or tomorrow, I'm going to go jogging.

161

Both of them are totally okay.

162

Oh yeah, and that reminds me,

163

some other things you can do.

164

You can go work out at the gym.

165

You can go out for dinner at a restaurant.

166

So there's just so many activities that I'm sure I cannot name them all.

167

But hopefully I've been able to name a lot of them that will be really useful for you guys.

168

If there are any activities that I didn't name,

169

feel free to post it in the comments.

170

Tell us like what you do on a regular day.

171

You could practice writing, you know,

172

first I do this, then after that I do this.

173

Sometimes I do this.

174

If it's something, I'll do that, right?

175

So for example, I often go for a walk in the evening,

176

but if it's raining, I'll stay home and read something like that.

177

So guys, that's it for this podcast.

178

But if you want to check out my live stream,

179

then click this video.

180

This was the first live stream I've ever done.

181

I forgot to post the live chat.

182

So next stream, you will be able to see the live chat.

183

But you can expect me to be streaming every Sunday at 10am.

184

And I will post that for you guys.

185

So yeah, thank you so much for listening for watching this podcast.

186

I hope it was useful for you.

187

And I will see you in the next video.

188

Have a great day.

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.
