Welcome back everyone to another comprehensible input vlog.
2
This video is part of my 3,000 most common English word
3
series designed to help you understand up to 95% of spoken English.
4
In today's video, we are going to be exploring some of the most beautiful places in Vietnam.
5
You'll also be learning vocabulary, simple phrases, natural expressions, and you'll hear real native English speakers talk.
6
I know how to swim, but it's just fur.
7
Let's start hiking.
8
It's stunning.
9
The town is downstream.
10
I was just so thirsty.
11
And did somebody drop their water?
12
This path is extremely narrow.
13
My legs are aching.
14
When it gets darker, it'll look even better.
15
Customary to tip them.
16
50,000 at the end.
17
Security or surveillance cameras.
18
Start the word count and let's go.
19
Okay, so we just stopped on the side of the road on our way to to Muaw Cave and Muaw Mountain.
20
That's where you see the beautiful, beautiful viewpoint of all of Ninbin and the surrounding rice fields, rivers, and mountains.
21
But right now we stopped to take a look at these boats.
22
If you look at the river here, you will see a lot of boats in the water.
23
And these people, I guess, are just taking a boat ride down this river because it's very beautiful and scenic.
24
And right now it's busy because it's almost golden hour.
25
So there are a lot of people that want to go and watch the sunset now.
26
So they're heading out on the boats
27
and you can see everyone has these bright neon orange life jackets on just in case they fall in the water.
28
I'm sure most people probably know how to swim, but it's just for extra safety.
29
But you can see the people rowing, they don't have any life jacket on.
30
But yeah, let's head to the mountain, Mount Mua.
31
Let's go.
32
Get my 3000 most common English words PDF from my website in the description.
33
Okay, so we just bought the tickets for Muwa Mountain.
34
Now we're gonna start climbing it from here.
35
It's not too far, they said 500 staves.
36
There's also a cave.
37
Cave and mountain.
38
Oh, look at this beautiful area.
39
It's just a pond filled with lily pads.
40
That's super nice.
41
You can see a lot of people down there walking.
42
But we need to make it to the top up there.
43
We need to make it up there before it gets too dark.
44
So let's start hiking.
45
But we don't want to be there for sunset because then it's dark already.
46
We want to be there when we can still see everything.
47
Look at this pond with fish.
48
There are so many fish.
49
They are very brightly colored.
50
Some fish are white.
51
Some fish are orange.
52
But most fish are both.
53
And some are even partly black.
54
You can see many different colors of fish here in the water.
55
The water is a green murky color.
56
You can see the vines coming from this tree are almost touching the surface of the water.
57
This tree has a lot of vines.
58
Leon's dead.
59
We just have a little bit more to go.
60
Oh, Mom's right there.
61
I'm on top.
62
She's just right there.
63
Yeah, no, it's not that far.
64
It's just hot.
65
It's humid, huh?
66
Yeah, it's just humid.
67
Want some water?
68
Give it to Leon, he's dying.
69
We're almost at the top here.
70
It's just up there.
71
Now it's getting really busy because I guess it's almost sunset.
72
Refuel, recharge, and then we'll make it the rest of the way.
73
How are you feeling, Mom?
74
I'm feeling better than our cameraman that we lost.
75
Yeah, we lost him.
76
Unfortunately, Leon was not able to make it this high.
77
I think he's coming up maybe after, but he's having cramping issues.
78
So we are just up here.
79
You can see how beautiful this view is.
80
It's stunning.
81
This honestly looks like Avatar.
82
This is a nice view.
83
It really does remind me of Avatar.
84
Like the mountains, doesn't it?
85
Yeah, absolutely.
86
You can see people on boats there.
87
You know they go underneath the mountain there?
88
Oh, no. Yeah, it's pretty cool.
89
So where's the town? That way?
90
Yeah, the town is downstream.
91
At the top here, it was a little difficult to get up here.
92
I had to go through there, but yeah, now I'm up here.
93
And the view here is really nice.
94
So we're walking down now, but the rocks are very slippery.
95
You can see they're like polished.
96
So we have to step on the cement only.
97
Because so many people step on the rocks that they just are so smooth now.
98
So we kind of have to walk like sideways and just on the cement part.
99
And Leon didn't make it up, so we'll see if we find him on the way down.
100
So Leon is now flying his drone.
101
You can see, he's flying his drone.
102
Why are you sweating so much, dude?
103
I just kept sweating, I just couldn't stop.
104
I thought I was gonna lose consciousness you got to the top yeah i was just
105
so thirsty and then somebody dropped their water on the ground
106
and i was like man i gotta drink this water
107
so you drank it no i didn't i sat there for
108
a good 25 minutes just breathing oh my god bro we went to the top
109
and i went to the very top i was on everything
110
literally looked no on the dragon head like yeah the dragon pictures from there is way nicer no
111
because there you can see the full like panoramic 360
112
so i got some footage of that but you have the drone
113
so i haven't even drank any water yet i'm just built different okay let's bounce it's It's going to get dark soon, so we should head down.
114
Yeah, let's go through the paddy field there.
115
Yeah.
116
So Leon is landing the drone now.
117
He's landing the drone.
118
Okay, guys, now we're going to have a shadowing practice.
119
So read along and really focus on your accent and pronunciation.
120
This is a huge rocky mountain with steep cliffs, narrow paths, and dramatic views.
121
Dark grey rocks cover most of the mountain and small green plants are growing between the cracks.
122
Many people are climbing up and down the stone stairs while carefully walking along the edge of the mountain.
123
Near the top, there is a tall pagoda standing on the highest point of the rocks.
124
The pagoda looks small from far away, but it stands out clearly against the bright sky.
125
Long lines of visitors are slowly moving toward the summit to enjoy the view.
126
In the foreground, there is a tiny building with a red roof built directly into the rocky landscape.
127
The rocks look rough, sharp, uneven, and natural.
128
In the distance, you can see green fields, small buildings, and flat land spreading across the horizon.
129
The sky is wide and cloudy, with soft light covering the entire scene.
130
The atmosphere feels adventurous, exciting, and slightly intense because of the height and narrow paths.
131
Want more practice?
132
Get the workbook for this lesson on my website and review the vocabulary, grammar, and real English from this video.
133
We've come a long way and now we're at the bottom.
134
Let's walk through this field a little bit.
135
Lotus.
136
Oh, these are lotus?
137
I believe this is a lotus field.
138
Those ones there.
139
Wait, do lotus grow in water like this?
140
Yes.
141
And I believe that they are not in bloom at the moment, as you can see.
142
But that pink one over there is, yeah, is a lotus.
143
Oh, and they cook with that, right?
144
I don't know if they cook with it, but I know they use the seed.
145
I have eaten some of the seeds.
146
It's actually really yummy.
147
There are a lot of photo spots throughout this field.
148
And here you can see this path is extremely narrow.
149
It's very narrow.
150
Don't fall in.
151
I'm a little bit off balance because I'm tired.
152
Your legs hurt.
153
Dude, my legs are aching.
154
My legs are aching right now.
155
You can see up there, some people are taking photos.
156
Or maybe we should go this way because I think those people want to come out.
157
So that is what the lotus flowers look like when they bloom.
158
So that's what this whole field would look like if it bloomed.
159
Unfortunately, it's not in bloom, although there are a few flowers.
160
Here, there is a sign that says, do not pick the flowers.
161
I think this would be very beautiful in full bloom when all the flowers are in full bloom.
162
Unfortunately, that is not right now.
163
I'm not sure if you can hear that creaking, but that bench is creaking a lot. That swing.
164
Yeah, this swing, this bench swing.
165
This is quite nice.
166
I'm pretty tired though.
167
I think we should go back.
168
Definitely have a shower after our long day.
169
Goodness, and then go and find some food.
170
Yeah, we definitely need to have a shower.
171
Like, we've been sweating all day and we are just tired.
172
Especially that last hike, or this last hike we did, man.
173
Holy...
174
Yeah.
175
Tired, dude.
176
High five to me for being your partner in crime today.
177
Yeah, Leon could not do it.
178
I didn't know he was that out of shape.
179
He needs to get into the gym again. For real.
180
That was like leg day.
181
It wasn't even that high, 500 steps.
182
No, it's not, but it's the humidity.
183
It just gets to you.
184
These lanterns do look very nice.
185
I think once it gets darker, it'll look even better.
186
Yeah, it looks really pretty.
187
They seem to hang them all around the lakes and areas where tourists seem to gather, but it looks very nice.
188
Yeah, no, it is really nice.
189
Okay, mom, what do you have in your hand there?
190
Oh, I have my backpack and my life jacket, and now I am going to put on my hat because it is super sunny.
191
Facts.
192
So, Leon's also grabbing a life jacket.
193
Oh, these are clean.
194
So, Leon just handed me my life jacket.
195
So, I'm about to put this life jacket on, but I need both hands.
196
Leon's putting his on.
197
Leon has a blue and a green life jacket.
198
Because he's the camera guy.
199
This camera wasn't in there.
200
He just dropped the bag with all the important stuff.
201
That battery thing has a case.
202
Bro, that buckle is not going to hold.
203
Why is it so tight?
204
Why is it so tight?
205
How do I loosen?
206
Oh, these don't loosen it.
207
It's like sideways.
208
The sides here at the back.
209
Bro, why don't you just get a bigger life jacket, bro?
210
You're always like the Michelin man.
211
You got it on the camera though, huh?
212
Yeah.
213
Okay.
214
Now I'm going to put my life jacket on.
215
Let me buckle up my life jacket.
216
Dude, I am bright in this.
217
I feel like you can see me from a mile away.
218
Yeah, now we're ready to go on the boat here.
219
So I just went through here and now the rest of them are also going through.
220
Okay, so now we're gonna wait up here until we get a boat and then we'll go on the boat.
221
And also I do think it's like customary to tip them.
222
50,000 at the end.
223
Oh.
224
That's what I've been told.
225
Okay.
226
That's how it was last time I was here.
227
Oh, we could just tip the boat driver.
228
They said, yeah, you usually tip the boat driver.
229
I'm like, if a guy's gonna row me for two hours with this beef, I'll give him a tip.
230
He's going to row our heavy boats.
231
He earned it.
232
Yes, definitely.
233
He or she, because there is a lot of ladies rowing.
234
There are, yeah.
235
Okay, now we're getting on our boat here.
236
Shoot.
237
Got it.
238
Got it.
239
Get on camera boy.
240
Yeah, but now we're on the river.
241
Now I'm gonna put on sunscreen, Korean sunscreen.
242
And I can say what I'm going to do.
243
I'm going to clean my sunglasses.
244
So I'm putting sunscreen on my face because I don't have a hat and it is just really sunny out right now.
245
Like, oh, the sun just came out from behind the clouds.
246
And I can just feel myself about to burn.
247
Let me apply the sunscreen without a mirror.
248
Can they make sunscreen for scalps?
249
Yeah.
250
You can just put on normal sunscreen.
251
It's skin.
252
No?
253
Or is that flawed logic?
254
Yeah, have you ever burned your scalp before?
255
No, I have not.
256
Have you heard of that, though?
257
Yeah, I've heard of people burning their scalps, but I don't think I've ever burnt my scalp.
258
Yeah, I think it's probably one of the most painful places to get burnt
259
because that part of your body usually never gets any sun on it, so it's just pale.
260
It has no sun resistance, so if you burn your scalp, it's just brutal.
261
If you burn enough that you peel, it's like you have the worst dandruff getting that out.
262
Isn't it like, how can you go most of your life without burning your scalp, and then all of a sudden you burn your scalp?
263
Is it just because you were in the sun for so long?
264
I think if you start losing hair or if you change a hairstyle that exposes your scalp, then you could burn your scalp.
265
But most people have not burned their scalps.
266
Yeah, I've never burned my scalp, so I'm not really sure the pain, but I have burned my body.
267
That pain is no joke.
268
That's serious stuff.
269
Wow.
270
I think I burned yesterday too.
271
You could see the tan line from my sunglasses in between my nose.
272
I didn't burn.
273
I never burned.
274
But yeah, now we're on the...
275
It's like a river, but it just like flows so gently.
276
There are a lot of people here.
277
This is really, really nice man.
278
Like look at these rocks and everything.
279
I wonder how deep the water is.
280
You want to jump in?
281
No, I've seen some videos on some people that have jumped in.
282
Look at the bridge, it's so pretty.
283
You can see right up ahead of us, there is a bridge.
284
And we will be going underneath the bridge.
285
Yo, what are you working on?
286
Yo, I'm working on my channel right now.
287
I just started, I'm going to be posting once a week if you guys want to check it out.
288
I'll be posting my shadowing stories on my second channel, Volca.
289
And I've also started posting these videos as podcasts.
290
Here you can see they have security or surveillance cameras in the water here.
291
Literally, it's in the water.
292
Oh, this guy's rowing with his hands though.
293
Nope, he's switching over to his feet.
294
Now he's rowing with his feet.
295
You can see that's how they row with their feet.
296
All of these guys row with their feet.
297
I guess it's easier because they do it all day.

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.
