ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: Apprendre le Français avec un Podcast : Partir en Voyage 🌍

Hello everyone, welcome to a new episode.

Today we have a subject that I love personally.

Me too, and I think you will love it too.

We will talk about the travel.

The destinations, the adventures, the galères also sometimes.

The galères are often the best memories at the end.

Before we start, I have a question for you.

Do you have already dreamed of everything and going to travel somewhere else without really knowing where?

Honestly, yes.

I have to open Google Maps, to look at the world's card and to ask why not?

The call to travel.

Today we are going to talk about all this.

Why we travel, how we organize a journey, the different types of travel, the challenges, the cultural differences and also the question of money.

We have a lot of things to say.

So let's start.

First question, and perhaps the most important, why are we traveling?

It's a good question.

I think that the first reason is to avoid the daily work, obligations, routine.

Sometimes we just need to go, change air.

Se resource, recharge the batteries.

But there are also more profound reasons.

Discover other cultures, other ways to live, other cuisine, other languages.

When you arrive in a country where everything is different, the odors, the sounds, the language, the architecture, it's a very particular feeling.

We call it the dépaysement.

It's this feeling of being ailleurs, in an environment completely different from what we know.

And some people travel to meet themselves.

We all have heard this phrase, to go for better to know.

And it's true.

When you are far from your habits, from your friends, from your family, you are forced to be alone.

And it shows a lot of things on you.

And there is also an important difference that I like to do, the difference between being tourist and being voyageur.

Yes, it's interesting.

What is the difference for you?

The tourist, he follows the guide, he visits the famous monuments, he eats in tourist restaurants, he takes photos and he repars.

It's not a critique, but it's a superficie of discovering a place.

And the traveler, he, tries to submerge.

He eats where the inhabitants eat, he takes the transports locaux, they are in the tourist areas.

They are looking to really understand the country, not just to photograph it.

We are all a little tourist sometimes, and there is no shame to that.

Yes, indeed.

Let's talk about the organization, because travel, it's prepared.

It depends.

There are two types of people in life.

Those who planify all the months in advance and those who reserve their billets in the veille.

And you are what type of type?

I like to know where I go, how I move, the total improvisation is a little.

I like to have a general idea and let the details be done over and over.

But I've learned that some things must be reserved for avance.

What for example?

Especially in high season.

If you wait too, the price explodes.

I've already paid a bill three times more expensive than what I had expected.

For flights, there are very useful tools.

Skyscanner, Google Flights, these sites compare the prices of all the airlines

and show you on a calendar the most expensive days for travel.

And the thing that many people don't know is

that travel in the middle of the week or the week is often less expensive than the weekend.

For the logement, the options are many.

The hotels, of course, but also Airbnb, where you buy an apartment or a room for a living room, or the auberges of jeunesse for the budget serrées.

A home of a jeunesse is a good shelter where you often dort in a dormant, that is to say a room with several beds and several people.

It's practical for small budgets and it's also a very good way to meet other travelers around the world.

And you don't forget the documents, the passport, the visa if necessary.

The visa is an official authorization given by a country to encourage you to enter on your territory.

According to your nationality and destination, you need it or not.

And the insurance-voyage, it's something that many people forget or neglect.

And it's a mistake.

An insurance-voyage, it covers the medical insurance if you're sick, the lost baggage, the annulling flights.

These situations can be very expensive without insurance.

I have a friend who broke his arm in Japan without insurance.

The medical cost was high.

It's the typical example.

Let's talk about different types of travel, because everyone doesn't travel the same way.

The journey in family first.

It's a very particular experience.

The joy are coupled, but the constraints also.

With children, everything is complicated.

The longs travel in plane, the children who are in the car, the hours of lunch.

But at the same time, seeing a child discover the mother for the first time or visiting a completely different country from the sien, it's something that's inoubliable.

The journey in a couple is romantic, but it can also reveal some tensions.

It's so true.

You may have some different desires.

The one wants to visit all the museums, the other wants to stay at the beach.

The one wants to leave early, the other wants to sleep until midnight.

And when you're together 24 hours on 24, in a reduced space, the differences become bigger.

We often say that to travel in a couple is the real test of a relationship.

The travel in a friend is often the most festive, but also the most complicated.

To put five people in a destination, a budget, a permanent activity, it's a permanent negotiation.

And there is always someone who is less involved in the organization, but who has a lot of views on the decisions.

We all know this person in the group.

And then the solo voyage, more popular, especially women.

The solo voyage is an experience in part of the entire world.

You are free at 100%.

You wake up when you want, you eat what you want, you change itinéraire without asking the person.

A itinéraire, it's the travel program, the order of places you visit.

And to travel alone is forced to go towards others.

When you are in group, you often stay in your bubble.

You talk to the people of the country, you meet other travelers.

But many people are afraid to travel alone, especially for security issues.

It's a legitimate fear, especially for women in certain destinations.

100

But with the good preparations and choosing well these destinations, the travel solo is accessible to many people.

101

And there is also backpacking.

102

It's a very popular lifestyle for young people.

103

The backpacking comes from the word backpack, which means sack to do in English.

104

The idea is to travel a little with just a sack to do, a small budget and a lot of flexibility.

105

You do in a jeunesse auberges, you take the transports locaux, you eat good food.

106

It's the opposite of a luxury voyage.

107

And some prefer just that.

108

Hotel 5 étoiles, restaurant gastronomique, service premium… The two approaches are valid, it's just a question of what we search and what we can afford.

109

Now we talk about the challenges, because no one is perfect.

110

Ah, the chapter that everyone has experienced.

111

The first classic classic mistake is the annuling or retarding.

112

You arrive at the airport, you look at the start table and you see it marked annuling.

113

This feeling is horrible and often it happens at the worst moment

114

when you have an important event to arrive or a correspondence to take.

115

A correspondence is when you have to change an airplane during your journey.

116

You take a first flight, you take an arrêt in a city and you take a second flight for your final destination.

117

And if the first flight is annuling, you rate the second flight?

118

What we need to know is that in many countries, the passengers have rights in case of annulling flights.

119

In Europe, for example, the company's aérien must pay or offer a other flight, and sometimes even pay a financial compensation.

120

The baggage lost is another big deal.

121

You arrive at destination, you wait devant the bag, everyone gets their bag and the tiener doesn't arrive.

122

It's happened to almost everyone at least once.

123

And it's stressant, because your affaires, your clothes, everything is in this bag.

124

The advice is always to put the essential things in the bagage to the main, the items numériques, the important documents.

125

And to make a big deal, it's another reality of the travel.

126

The pickpockets exist in many large cities touristy.

127

The pickpockets are travelers who take discreet your business without you to get into it.

128

Your wallet, your phone, your phone...

129

The tourist zones are often the most risk.

130

The markets, the transports in common, the famous sites.

131

And the tourists are always the most dangerous.

132

The taxi who doesn't put the comptable price and invent a price, the restaurant who gives you a menu without price and gives you a huge amount of price.

133

The rule of order, always ask the price before and always verify that the taxi uses the comptable price.

134

And then there are the imprevues who fear the moment but become the best stories after.

135

It's so true.

136

The stories that we tell with the most enthusiasm, it's rarely when everything is perfectly passed.

137

It's when you're found in a city of a unknown, when you've lost your train, when you've had to improvise.

138

One time, I reserved a Airbnb and in arriving, the apartment doesn't look absolutely as a photo.

139

Photo of Palace, reality of a little humid studio.

140

Welcome to the real world of voyage.

141

But I ended up finding a nice hotel in the neighborhood and finally, it was better than I expected.

142

Now we have a different culture, because travel is also confront to ways of living very different from the sien.

143

And it can surprise, sometimes shock, and often enriches culturellement.

144

We call it the cultural shock.

145

It's when you arrive somewhere and everything is so different from what you know, that you feel a little bit disorientated.

146

For example, the habits around the meal change a lot from one country to another.

147

In France, the meal is a sacred moment.

148

We take the time, we talk, we rest at table.

149

In other countries, eat fast and normal, or eat in the street, which is bad for some cultures.

150

In France, the arrival at the time is important.

151

In other cultures, being in a hurry for 30 minutes is all normal and no offense.

152

And the gestures?

153

A gesture can say very different things in the country.

154

The push lever, for example, is positive in many countries, but offensive in some regions of the Middle East.

155

That's why it is always good to be a minimum on local coutumes before leaving, to not offend without wanting to.

156

And not to go for the bad tourist, who speaks strong, who does not respect the sacred places, who does not wear a temple in a temple, for example.

157

The respect of local food is the basis of the responsible passenger.

158

And the food is one of the best ways to discover a culture.

159

Absolutely.

160

To go to the places of the innu, to eat where the inhabitants eat, to go away from restaurants who offer a international food for tourists.

161

It's often there that we make the best gastronomical discoveries, and the most surprising also.

162

Let's talk about money, because travel has a cost and it's important to talk about it.

163

How much is it really worth a voyage?

164

It's hard to say because it depends a lot of destination, the duration, the style of travel.

165

But there are expenses that many people forget to calculate.

166

The visa, if necessary, the insurance travel, the transports on the place, the activities.

167

We often think of the plane and the hotel, but once on the plane, the expenses are quickly.

168

There are some tips for travel less cheap.

169

Voyager hors saison, c'est-à-dire pas pendant les vacances scolaires ou les périodes de fêtes, peut faire baisser les prix considérablement.

170

Hors saison, les hôtels sont moins chers, les sites touristiques sont moins bondés et l'expérience est souvent meilleure.

171

Il y a aussi la question du cash versus la carte bancaire.

172

Dans beaucoup de pays développés, la carte est acceptée partout.

173

Mais dans certains pays, le cash est indispensable.

174

Et attention aux frais bancaires à l'étranger.

175

Certaines banques prennent des commissions importantes sur chaque paiement à l'étranger.

176

There are banks in line who don't take any money.

177

And the arnaques of change.

178

People who ask in the street to change your money to a very advantageous rate.

179

In general, it's an arnaque.

180

Always change your money in an official bank or a change bureau.

181

I want to talk about something more philosophical.

182

Why do we change the voyage?

183

Because it comes out of our comfort zone.

184

When everything is familiar around you, you work automatically.

185

The travel obliges to be fully present and attentive.

186

And you realize that your way of living is not the only way of living.

187

There are people happy on all the continents, with values, habits, and priorities very different from Etienne.

188

That makes it more humble, I think.

189

And more curious.

190

Once you go to the travel, you want to continue to discover.

191

We often say that the travel is the only purchase that makes you rich.

192

And I think that it's a beautiful way of seeing things.

193

I hope this episode has given you a feeling of making your valises.

194

And if you learn French, we hope that the vocabulary of this episode has been useful.

195

Words like the dépaysement, the escalation, the correspondence, the backpacking, the cultural shock.

196

And now we have a question for you.

197

What is the country you dream of visiting?

198

Tell us in the comments, we are really curious to know.

199

See you soon for a new episode.

200

See you soon.

201

Thank you.
