1
What time do you get up?
2
I'm at 7.45.
3
And you, Sarah?
4
You've copied me.
5
I'm at the same time.
6
Well, today we're going to ask not only what time do you get up,
7
but all about the daily routine of the people in Barcelona.
8
Are you ready?
9
Let's go.
10
What time did you get up today?
11
A little late today, it's the weekend, at 9pm.
12
I'm going to wake up at 9.45am.
13
Today I'm going to wake up at 7.00am.
14
Saturday I could sleep.
15
6.30am.
16
This morning at 7.00am.
17
Yes, the despertador is at 7.00am.
18
Even if it's a holiday,
19
I have a routine established.
20
And at 7.00am, I'm going to wake up.
21
At 7.00am, the weekend, why?
22
Today we had a career here in Barcelona
23
and we wanted to wake up with time to eat well and to eat well.
24
Prepararnos.
25
And to make a digestible.
26
Prepararnos for the career that started at 9. At 8. At 4.
27
It was quite early for me.
28
Yes, very early.
29
And you always wake up at that time?
30
No, I was ringing the alarm because I had the work from the lunes to the weekends and of course,
31
I didn't have to take away.
32
between the week, what time do you wake up?
33
Normally, at 8, 8.30 maybe.
34
We wake up at 7, from Monday to Friday. At 6.30am.
35
I'm at 6.20am, but it's a casual fact.
36
I need an hour to prepare for work,
37
so I go to bed at 7.20am exactly,
38
40 minutes of the metro,
39
and at 8am I go to work.
40
So at 6.00am, 6.30am.
41
Much sooner.
42
Yes, that is what is usual.
43
I wake up at 5.
44
5?
45
5.30, yes.
46
Why so early?
47
Because I train and I'm also working.
48
Madrug, yes, I wake up early.
49
Because I have to work for a long time,
50
I have to start very early so I can get out of the way.
51
What do you do just after?
52
I go out of bed,
53
I get out of my pants,
54
I put my clothes on my job and then I get dressed,
55
I get my teeth, prepare my backpack for work I go to the bathroom,
56
I do everything I have to do and then I get dressed and I go to the college First,
57
I get dressed and then I get dressed and dressed and dressed and dressed I wake up,
58
I take a coffee, I ducho,
59
I like to have a time for the morning before the day.
60
The first thing I do is go to the kitchen,
61
prepare a coffee, I go to the terrace,
62
I live in the mountain in a natural park,
63
I go looking at the forest and I take my coffee.
64
If it's summer, great, if it's winter,
65
a little bit of a big.
66
First of all, coffee.
67
Without coffee I can't live,
68
so I'm going to go,
69
I look a little to the news for me to wake up and then I go to the metro.
70
It's a routine, it's a great routine.
71
Two coffee every morning, if not, my day is destroyed.
72
How do you take your coffee?
73
American, a big glass.
74
Solo, espresso, always.
75
With milk, but I do the typical Italian cafeteria.
76
I have to wait a little,
77
but it's good, it's good.
78
I have to eat.
79
If I don't eat well,
80
I can't go on the day.
81
So I prepare my breakfast,
82
I eat with news, and then I go to work.
83
What do you want?
84
A little bit of what it is,
85
lemon, cheese, mixed with a some orange and a coffee.
86
Today I eat my coffee with milk,
87
with toast, with lemon and also a toast with mermelada.
88
It's always the classic, a coffee with a pasta,
89
a baking soda, it's always the same.
90
It can be a sandwich,
91
it can be an arepa,
92
it can be fruit, it varies,
93
I think it varies a little more.
94
Pancakes, yes.
95
I don't know anything, I always do the same.
96
I don't spend time thinking I'm going to eat.
97
From the kitchen I go to the bathroom,
98
I wash my teeth, I wash my hands,
99
and I take my bag that I prepared for the night and I run.
100
If you have a very marked routine,
101
I think it might be difficult to find a particular teacher that you have the disponible that you need?
102
Well, enter the channel of the channel, italki.
103
It's a platform where you can find teachers from all over the world.
104
So you can find someone who has the perfect disponible for you.
105
It can be very expensive, you think.
106
Well, there are all the resources.
107
And with our link, go.italki.com.easyspanish,
108
you will get 10 dollars to use on the platform after spending your first 20 dollars.
109
It's a good offer.
110
Well, let's continue with the interviews.
111
Do you have something in the morning that is very important for you?
112
If you don't do it, it's a bit.. you put it in a bad place?
113
Yes, there is something basic,
114
and for me and my team we always look for breakfast.
115
I try to break off half-a-day,
116
break, disconnect, 20 minutes and eat together.
117
I basically, if I have a night,
118
or I have a night and I have a day and I have a day to get up,
119
I try to make the food horrors that don't change, not altering much.
120
So, what I can do is to go directly to the food and avoid eating.
121
Because if you start going to go all day, then everything goes wrong.
122
I try, although I don't do it every day,
123
but I try to do a little meditation with an app that I use for 10 minutes every morning.
124
For example, I play golf.
125
I play golf for the mornings, some day.
126
I wake up soon for some day to play.
127
The days that I wake up the most soon is for some day,
128
because then I have to work.
129
I look at the time, which I also like.
130
And then I go to fishing or my English classes.
131
I take the keys from the office.
132
Because if not, I enter.
133
For you is important to have a routine in three weeks?
134
For me, routine is not important.
135
I am anti-routine.
136
If I could live without routine,
137
I would love to do what I like.
138
And one day I would have to wake up for a minute, another day.
139
That's what I would like to do.
140
But I can't.
141
No, because I can work from home of home,
142
other days I go to the office,
143
other days I visit clients,
144
other days I go to projects,
145
so that's why I don't feel that daily routine,
146
to get up to office,
147
home, no, no, no, no,
148
in my case I'm lucky and no. No,
149
no, no, no, in fact,
150
it's hard to enter in a routine,
151
for example, I would like to be more disciplined with the gym or the exercise,
152
but I don't do it.
153
I go to the gym when I have time.
154
But I consider that the routine is important,
155
to mark discipline, if you have any goals in mind during those months,
156
depending on the season that you are, the routine is important.
157
Well, at the end it's like a mental order,
158
because if you wake up early,
159
or at least at a certain time,
160
it's like you have the security of doing the same thing,
161
and I think I'm a bit more productive when I wake up early,
162
I have more hours to work.
163
Yes, yes, because I like to sleep a lot and if I don't have a routine that I'm very familiar, I'm late.
164
I'm very methodical, I'm a very methodical person and the routine for me is very important.
165
For me, yes, I'm a routine person,
166
which means that when I tell me something,
167
we go to this place,
168
I leave everything and I go.
169
Sometimes when we break that routine,
170
we feel that we are outside of our comfort zone and that makes us more disublished.
171
We think that we haven't taken enough time or that we feel even culpables.
172
It's not necessarily so, but we are animals of routine.
173
Well, I I imagine it depends on the personality of each one.
174
There will be people who are more creative,
175
who are less routine, and people who are more,
176
I don't know, it's a cliche,
177
but maybe they are more scientific people who need a routine.
178
Or maybe it's the opposite,
179
I don't know, but according to each one,
180
it will be better one or another.
181
And to finish, what is the last thing you do before you sleep? To go to TikTok.
182
It's my time to relax.
183
The last thing before you sleep.
184
I don't have a fixed routine, I don't know.
185
I'm sure to wash my teeth.
186
I'm sure to wash my teeth.
187
Before I sleep, I collect the kitchen.
188
I like to keep the kitchen recoged.
189
If I have a job on the next day,
190
I have tasks for doing the next day.
191
So I have them clear the next day.
192
Or I see movies or I read a book.
193
I have finished a book recently by García Márquez.
194
What?
195
The title is strange, huh?
196
Memories of my sad memories.
197
That's García Márquez, I don't.
198
I like to read, but recently I took a book and I stayed asleep.
199
Is it possible that you end up with news reports to end up hurting you,
200
to sleep, and then I wake up and move to the camera?
201
Something that I don't know,
202
that is being done with the phone.
203
I'm with the phone, really.
204
I shouldn't, but I should review the phone.
205
Maybe I should look at YouTube or something like that.
206
And I should not.
207
I understand the light blue.
208
It wakes up some parts of the brain that I should not be so active during the previous hours to sleep.
209
And I should not do it, but I do it.
210
I try not to do it.
211
The last thing is to look at the alarm.
212
See if they are all well placed.
213
It's like the last thing I do before I sleep.
214
There are several alarms.
215
Yes.
216
I have several.
217
I'm at 8, 8, 5, 8 and 4.
218
No, no, I do a kiss and I tap well and if you do,
219
if you do, if you do,
220
you do not do well.
221
And now, it's to you.
222
Me?
223
No, you, I'm at you.
224
Keep it happy.
225
Let us in the comments how is a normal day for you,
226
what is your routine.
227
And if you want to talk a little bit more about this topic,
228
we recommend watching the video that Paulina made about the routine for the people in Mexico.
229
And nothing else, don't forget to subscribe to our channel and see you next time.
230
Adios.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
