have to make a part two guys so sorry yeah uh actually we might

but uh let's keep going wait how many questions have we asked

we're just we're just not counting anymore like it just it doesn't matter

when you talk to somebody interesting like you're not counting involved in the conversation yeah

it's hard to think in those logical mathematical terms yes what's your favorite fruit what's my favorite fruit yeah okay

i speaking of blueberries i do really love blueberries

but in general i would say apples

because i actually have an apple here with me

it's easy to transport it's an easy snack um yeah they're just uh crisp

and delicious and sweets do you have a favorite apple variety

because there's like hundreds to choose from cosmic cosmic crisp okay i learned about recently i don't know

if they always had them i feel like they're new

they're like a new offering um as of the last couple years okay

i discovered a new type of apple this past year

it's probably not new it was new to me

it's called kissable k -i -s -s -a -b -e -l it has pink flesh

so the inside of the apple is pink

and it tastes like somewhere between apples and berries

and it's crazy juicy like you bite in

and just drips juice oh my gosh it's so good

but they're hard to find okay those all right those sound delicious um

i was gonna say i should have eaten before this

because all we're doing is talking about food we should have saved this category for last

but yes um okay

so favorite fruits uh do you have a favorite meal

i would say my favorite meal is a really good steak yes done on the grill yes

and with a side of maybe like smashed potatoes

or grilled potatoes you say smashed potatoes yes

so yeah what's wait i say mashed potatoes oh is there a difference no it's two different things really yeah

so you got mashed potatoes where they're mashed into a semi -liquid form yeah

you can kind of smash as you take small potatoes

and literally smash them flat with the skin on season them

and then put them in the oven until they get crispy i thought you made a mistake saying smashed potatoes

but this is actually me learning something new yes okay i love potatoes in all forms honestly

so they would be part of my i do love potatoes

and then i'm thinking maybe you know you need something green

and healthy in there

so i'm thinking maybe um some asparagus some roasted asparagus with a little garlic

and lemon and salt

and pepper nice yeah okay my favorite meal okay

i have to ask what yours my favorite meal i already said i love scallops

but uh if it

if it wasn't scallops i would also go with a steak not just trying to copy you

but uh a really solid choice yeah i mean

it's a special occasion kind of thing right i don't eat steak every night

but you know for a special occasion i love a good steak i would probably pick um a salad

and mashed potatoes okay yeah it's very close to yours it is i do like asparagus

but not as much we didn't choose dessert though oh neither of us said

so what would be like there's so many good desserts there's

so many good desserts um i do really like creme brulee creme brulee yeah

i do too that's a good one um mine would be

like either a brownie sundae with ice cream on top

or there's something called toll house cookie pie

which is basically like picture like a gigantic baked chocolate chip cookie with ice cream on top

oh i can't handle it all right we need to move on to another topic

because i can't i can't handle this you're absolutely okay our next one is travel plans

or experiences okay i'll start okay you start all right uh

i know you've been to many many places you're like a world traveler

and you have lot of experience if there's one place

that you haven't been yet

that you would love to go where where would you love to visit oh

i know right away i want to go to greece

and i want to visit the greek isles i i've seen these pictures right i mean who's to know

if the pictures you see on social media are accurate

but there's so many beautiful pictures i've seen

and i love islands i love being by the water

i love being on boats i love greek food going back to food

we just can't stop talking about food we have one track yes

so i want to go eat olives and feta cheese

in greece and baklava and yes and uh

and just yeah experience um going island hopping that would be

so much fun shout out to the greek viewers at home

yes how you doing um all right very cool do you have any upcoming travel plans um i do actually

so i am going to kansas city oh to help a friend move oh

so it's kind of going to be like a little bit of like you know not necessarily a vacation

because like helping them move

but like i'm sure we'll make it fun i'm sure we'll like go eat some barbecue in kansas city

and uh maybe see a couple sites or something like that

so yes it should be fun i i don't know kansas city very well

so i'm excited to kind of learn a new city

and get like a locals impression of all the cool stuff

there oh very cool yeah okay where is the last place

you traveled to gabby the last place i traveled would have been new york city because

that was yeah no wait no no oh my god just take

it no come back city come back city oh my god oh my god i'm

so sorry it's okay it's fine it's okay no didn't put a lot of thought into

that trip didn't make it real special for you

didn't guys i think he's gonna leave me but um

come back come back no the last place i traveled was quebec city um

and it was the most magical trip ever it was amazing i used to think

that despite that i totally forgot to mention it um

wow okay so i mean i to be fair i set you up

because i know where you traveled yeah like i'm i'm pretending

and we had just talked about new york city yeah

but i'm pretending to ask you questions like i don't know the answer yeah

but i kind of do

so it was kind of a setup oh gosh okay well yes the last place

that i traveled together with mike was to quebec city

it was beautiful i loved hearing french all around i loved all the amazing food

100

and actually it was a surprise

101

so um mike just said bring your passport a swimsuit

102

and there's one other thing i think oh shoes walking

103

and dancing shoes yes yes because i knew there would be some salsa involved yes yeah

104

and guys it was magical i i'll tell you more about it another time

105

but it was very magical yeah so

106

and i learned a new phrase in french my blonde oh yeah my girlfriend yes

107

so now you're my blood

108

and mon chum mon chum this is quebecois french anybody watching from quebec probably not

109

but if you are shout out let us know yeah help us learn more quebecois french yeah

110

or french french that could be the next video we can road trip back to quebec

111

and meet one of your of viewers who can teach us some québécois french should we do travel

112

and english i think

113

that would be very fun i think that's where we're headed do you have any like memorable travel stories

114

that come to mind right away um i mean

115

when we went to quebec city like

116

that is just what we were talking about

117

but that's yeah that's very memorable

118

because i mean no one's ever surprised me with a trip like

119

that so the whole thing was just like a dream like you know I didn't know what to expect

120

and I think when you have those memorable experiences is

121

because you are surprised by something so if you go on a trip

122

and you have this expectation

123

and everything is exactly like as you had pictured it's not as memorable as

124

if you have a surprise like you meet some interesting people

125

or you learn new words or you see new places um

126

so yeah yeah and i i honestly for a few years i hadn't really traveled very much

127

so yeah that is more fresh in my memory okay yeah here locally

128

if again if i have a friend visiting or if my brother comes to visit

129

where should i take them for a weekend okay oh

130

it's like for a whole weekend well no no no sorry

131

they're here for a weekend let's just keep it contained to three days okay yeah um

132

so i feel i feel bad recommending like the most obvious places

133

but like one place

134

that you have to go here in this area is a park called fort williams park yes i agree

135

because it's just a beautiful park and they have a lot of cool old forts

136

but uh portland headlight lighthouse is there

137

and it's the most photographed lighthouse in the world to the best of my knowledge

138

and it's just a really beautiful place it's right by the water there's food trucks rolling hills there's food trucks

139

if you're into lobster you get a lobster roll oh yeah

140

very main so

141

that would be a good spot to go um

142

i've seen people barbecue there too like they have grills yeah

143

it's a great place to bring your family for a party

144

or a picnic or grill out

145

or throw a little like get together with your friends yeah

146

they have tennis courts they have pickleball courts

147

they have all sorts of different things you can do i didn't know all

148

that yeah okay you can bring a dog oh dog friendly park nice yeah

149

so a great spot um another place i really like is the botanical garden up in Booth Vey.

150

Oh, I don't know about this.

151

You haven't been there?

152

No. Oh, we'll have to go.

153

Yeah.

154

So there's a cool botanical garden up in Booth Vey, Maine.

155

And what they're really famous for are these really huge wooden troll sculptures.

156

I saw that on Instagram.

157

Yeah, so they're like 25, maybe taller feet tall, like trolls, like monsters made out of wood

158

and there you just kind of like walk around the garden

159

and he's sort of like magically discover a troll there's kind of like oh my gosh comes out of nowhere

160

and then of course like all the flowers and the trees

161

and cool things going on it's really beautiful wow

162

so that's a really good spot yeah yeah that would be fun

163

that would be fun for sure if they're into shopping at all um

164

because you know sometimes you like to shop when you travel so i would recommend going up to Freeport, Maine, because specifically you have L .L.

165

Bean there, and Maine is famous for L .L.

166

Bean.

167

Yeah, and there's other shops, too.

168

Of course, yep.

169

You got, like, lots of...

170

Patagonia.

171

Yep, lots of outdoor shops and good food up there.

172

There's some good restaurants, so that would be a fun place.

173

There are North Face, too.

174

Yep.

175

Okay.

176

Absolutely.

177

A lot of outdoor apparel shops.

178

Yep.

179

And then, honestly, just going downtown Portland.

180

Yes.

181

Going to the Old Port.

182

The Old Port.

183

Seeing the old cobblestone streets.

184

Yeah.

185

The old buildings.

186

Yeah

187

and it's just really lively in the summertime

188

there's lots of live music going on there's lots of good places to eat yeah

189

there's it's just a it's a quintessential place to walk around

190

and experience maine and portland and lobster boats

191

and everything you'd see on a postcard about the area yes love

192

it okay um let's see question for you about travel plans and experiences um

193

what type of traveler are you so like

194

when you go on vacation do you like to relax

195

and read books and just chill or do you like to be active

196

and go sightseeing and go hiking and do all

197

that kind of thing absolutely my favorite trips are

198

when there's some activity like hiking dancing or even just walking around a city

199

but like walking like 20 30 000 steps walking yeah um so i do love that activity.

200

I love exploring.

201

I'm not so much of a sit on the beach all day getting a tan kind of person.

202

I could do that for a little while maybe you know half the day

203

or less but at the end of the day I love being out and about exploring, meeting new people,

204

just seeing new things like immersing myself in that place whether it's a natural environment like a hike or a city

205

so i would say yeah i'm an explorer i don't know

206

if that's a traveler type but i think it should be that's why we get along

207

so well yeah because i'm the same way like the idea of lying on the beach for hours

208

and hours no thank you i would need a lot of sunscreen

209

if you're into that god bless you that's great but or

210

if we go to the beach i would like to be doing something like surfing

211

or swimming or snorkeling yeah

212

and i also really like as much as possible to try to live like a local

213

when i'm traveling i mean sometimes you're just going to be a tourist

214

and you need to do tourist things

215

but i do really love finding the little hole in the wall restaurant

216

that only locals go to or the dive bar

217

and you know just hanging out with people who are living their lives

218

you know that's the best not just other tourists

219

i have a hack i have a life hack to share tell me

220

so when you're traveling

221

if you want to know some of the best local spots

222

to eat yeah ask a cop oh my gosh ask a police officer i never thought of

223

that they're always out eating yeah they know the good spots

224

because they know the city very well yeah yeah wow that's a great tip

225

and they're usually i mean you can just go up

226

and talk to them they're usually out

227

and about yeah they're legally obligated to talk to you as long as you're polite

228

you know yeah um that's a great tip i'm trying to think well

229

this video is not about travel hacks maybe we'll have to

230

do another video about travel hacks yeah part five at this point is there any place

231

that you've traveled

232

that you wish you hadn't sorry

233

i don't want to throw any place under the bus right maybe i shouldn't ask

234

that let me how about this and let me ask in a different way is there anywhere that you

235

enjoyed going you actually liked it

236

but you don't necessarily feel like you need to go back that's a good question let me think about

237

that okay think about that we don't have to answer

238

that we don't have to throw in any any place under the bus that's fair i've been on a hike

239

or two before yeah where you know i get to the end of the hike

240

and it's like oh like there were

241

so many bugs oh yeah mosquitoes yeah like the trail itself wasn't the best

242

it didn't have a lot of good views yeah i know way better hikes yeah

243

so there's definitely a couple hikes where i'm like been there done

244

that don't need to go never gonna go back to

245

that again fair enough yeah is there anywhere locally

246

that you feel like is over hyped like like

247

because this is a touristic city

248

and we're very lucky to live here is there anywhere

249

that comes to mind

250

that you feel like everyone goes there i have one actually okay i have one

251

so i feel like there's i'm not going to say the name specifically of the place

252

but there's there's a donut shop where everybody goes

253

and there's these long lines every day i know exactly the shop you're talking about

254

and i agree with you 100 you are dead on about

255

that and like they're good

256

but like really like like it's a little bit overhyped you're yeah you're 100 right about

257

that particular donut shop yeah so i always i try to look for places

258

that are not um like what's the word overhyped oversold over too touristy yeah um all right

259

so this is going to be controversial that's okay i'm not

260

i won't back down

261

i stand by my opinions okay even though i already recommended

262

them as a good place for a tourist to go

263

and visiting yes becky's diner is also a little bit overhyped

264

because it's a great place shout out becky's not putting you down um

265

but is it a place

266

that you want to wait an hour for sometimes the waits are really long especially in summer right

267

and like on a sunday morning yeah like any weekends

268

so like if you can just you know walk down the street

269

and boom there's a table available go to back yes for

270

sure yes um is it worth an hour of your time waiting for i think there's other hidden gems yes

271

which is a great phrase also there's so many restaurants to try you just have to do a little research

272

ask the cops i'm gonna get

273

so much hate on the comment section i don't know bring

274

it bring it about becky's yeah we'll see bring

275

it folks have i can take have any of you been to portland maine

276

and specifically have you been to becky's

277

you can tell us in the comments again great spot yeah not hour -long wait

278

it's okay we would we would still go yeah just yeah do we want to wait an hour no

279

that's a good question no i think some people like waiting in line right well not me yeah

280

yeah especially

281

if you're hungry seriously yeah yeah depends uh where you're with i mean

282

i'd wait an hour in a line with you oh thanks well

283

we have a lot to talk about we do especially now

284

that we're practicing our small talk so much we're

285

so good at small talk by the end of this video we will have

286

talked about everything though we'll just be like yeah

287

we don't have anything more to talk about we've done it right here with you guys

288

that was nice knowing you yeah

289

no come back um okay next topic let's go next topic okay

290

i think you pick okay i think all right i'm sorry

291

this is gonna be our last topic for this video and

292

if you're enjoying these small talk questions and answers

293

and us in general then you can tune in for a part two oh

294

so next time in part two we can count up the questions yes

295

and figure out how many we did in part one

296

and then actually keep track yes so that we actually hit a hundred yes

297

and fulfill our promises we won't let you down

298

i'm a stickler for fulfilling promises yes i know i try to stand by my word okay

299

and if you want to help us count let us know how many questions

300

and answers we actually did i would appreciate

301

that i'm less of a math person more of an english person obviously

302

but also don't be that guy don't be like actually there was three questions in one

303

so really you hit 100 i mean sometimes it's hard to count

304

because we have follow -up questions

305

which i love i love a good follow -up question

306

but this video is not really about follow -up questions i do want to say

307

that if you like this topic

308

and you want to learn more with go natural english come to gonaturalenglish .com slash anyone

309

that is where you can find information about how to sign

310

up for my course about how to start a conversation with anyone

311

so there's that but we're not done yet we have one more topic

312

which is fitness and hobbies oh fitness we love some fitness um fitness cake in my mouth

313

good one okay whose turn is it to ask the question it would be me right

314

because you you chose the topic sure okay

315

so do you work out

316

i'm just kidding hey mike hey gabby do you like to exercise yes

317

i like to exercise that's a great question um do you prefer going to the gym

318

or doing outdoors activities i mean

319

if i could only choose one definitely outdoor activities i'd much rather do

320

that but i like both like i like going to the gym

321

and lifting weights and focusing on certain areas um

322

but yeah i'd much rather be out hiking or kayaking

323

or getting my exercise in a more fun outdoorsy kind of way totally i do both okay yeah cool um

324

and what about you like what are some ways

325

that you get in exercise other than going to the gym yeah

326

so you know i love dancing

327

so that's a good amount of cardio i also love to hike

328

or kayak or walk my dog yeah those are different for me than going to the gym

329

because at the gym i lift weights

330

and it's just a different way to work out your body

331

so i like both but

332

if i had to only pick one it would be outdoor activities yeah oh

333

it's not it's my turn now isn't it do you have any hobbies

334

i have actually too many hobbies like that's kind of one

335

of my personality traits is i have lots of hobbies

336

and i'll get really into it and then kind of move on to another one

337

so one of the hobbies though that i've had for years and years

338

and years on end is i'm really into tea yes i'm really into brewing tea chinese tea specifically chinese tea

339

so it's like a traditional way to brew tea uh called

340

gong fu tea where you use like very small teapots

341

or a lidded cup they are small they're teeny tiny

342

you guys they're like they can fit in the palm of your hand

343

but you like pack them full of leaf

344

and then do like many infusions you brew the tea many times

345

and then like you get to see different aspects of the tea

346

and it's just like a good social thing

347

so it's really good to do with friends and other people

348

because then the small talk in the conversation just kind of flows more naturally like

349

when you have something that kind of distracts you right or

350

that you can focus you can talk about the tea it makes the taste yeah the experience

351

or other things right absolutely

352

so what had what hobby have you had maybe for the longest like what's a lifelong hobby

353

that you've done for a long time probably dance

354

because i've been doing latin dance for about 20 years now maybe a little bit more

355

but not super consistently i've done it sporadically just as the opportunity comes up you know

356

if there's a dance festival

357

or maybe a fun event that's happening like later today we're gonna go to

358

so I haven't always been consistent with it even though I would say

359

I've done it for the longest amount of time

360

I've had a consistent interest I just haven't gone every single week to a dance class

361

I'd probably be a lot better than I am now

362

but it's something

363

that I've really just really enjoyed it gives me

364

it gives me a lot of joy to dance how did you first get into latin dance what got

365

you into it yeah i actually saw some performers at a festival locally here in portland

366

i think it was some kind of global arts festival

367

and i remember seeing a performance and i thought wow

368

that is so dynamic and just full of energy and joy

369

and like very um you know the music is upbeat

370

and i thought i want to learn to do that

371

so i know that you have a half marathon

372

that you're going to be doing soon yes yeah not super soon i still have some time to prepare

373

but yes i'm planning on doing the austin half marathon with a couple of friends there

374

so i'll have to start preparing a few months out i like to start training i don't know five

375

or six months in advance it's just the half marathon this time though

376

so maybe four

377

or five months in advance yeah 13 miles no biggie yeah no big deal um

378

i'm excited to do it with friends though this is the first time

379

that i've done something like

380

that with other people um it's just always been me you know training by myself

381

so it's a different experience to have friends to cheer each other on yeah yeah cool yeah um oh

382

i don't want to oh yeah it's my turn do you like water sports um

383

i mean i love to snorkel

384

so i used to live in maui hawaii for a

385

while i was there for five and a half years

386

and i had my own snorkel gear and i had my favorite snorkel spots

387

that i would go to certain beaches that were really great

388

and those i will not tell you

389

because i'm not going to blow those up hawaii super secret yeah hawaii is the type of place where like

390

if you got some really good local spots

391

you can't tell you can tell your friends to bring those secrets to the grave with you

392

but i'm not going to tell your two million plus sorry guys sorry guys

393

sorry um unless you live in maui then we'll come visit you

394

and we can talk about all the best places to go snorkeling

395

but yeah so as far as water sports go i mean i kayak as well

396

so you know i like being on top of the water in the kayak i love snorkeling um

397

but i've never done like um like water skiing or anything like

398

that yeah no i think you and i we figured out something particular

399

that we like to not use like motorized things like like the jet ski

400

or water ski we like to be um like just self -propelled yeah like on our own two feet

401

or in the water just you know maybe a surfboard is okay

402

but yeah but not something that's motorized we like to use our muscles and

403

when you're just sitting on a jet ski to me

404

it's not as interesting as like using your own muscles yeah

405

um here's an interesting question yeah what is a more intellectual pursuit

406

or hobby that you have like maybe it's like reading a certain type of books

407

or a certain topic that you're really interested in uh

408

so i find myself really curious about a lot of different topics

409

but the first thing that came to mind was languages

410

because i don't just like teaching english i love learning other languages

411

i like learning how they're structured i like learning um like phrases

412

that exist in one language but not another

413

and i love yeah i love learning like how

414

that reflects on the culture too um or like

415

when i practice japanese you know learning the different characters

416

i'm getting excited just talking about it i love it yeah yeah

417

but that's always been my thing um can i put

418

you on the spot of course sure do you have an example of a phrase used in one language

419

but not others um well like yeah so there's a couple

420

that come to mind like in japanese natsukashi means like it's hard to it's hard for me to translate

421

it's kind of like oh that's

422

so um oh what's the word like uh nostalgic like uh

423

or like oh no no sorry not nostalgic natsukashi is like i'm you guys

424

you're gonna have to correct me in the comments

425

because i'm not going to do this justice at all um

426

but it seems to me

427

that it's a hard word to translate also the word in portuguese saudade

428

that one is like a longing for something like oh saudade jivo said is like i miss you

429

but it's more than miss it's like my soul longs for you it's like very

430

so i'll need to learn this one

431

because i said doesn't it sound nice it's gonna come in handy

432

so often with us it's in a lot of songs too it's such a beautiful word

433

so shout out to uh to the portuguese speakers

434

and the japanese speakers ciao not quite ciao

435

but um all right well do we have any other any other questions i'm sure we could think of more

436

but i feel like you guys might need a break we might need a break we've talked about food

437

so much i'm actually getting hungry like for real for real for real

438

so i think that we're gonna wrap this up but again

439

440

and yeah let us know what you think of this style video

441

445

448

449

459

and we'll catch you in part two all right awesome bye for now

460

if you ever get stuck and you don't know what to say

461

when you're trying to talk to someone

462

this is the video for you this is part two of our 100 small talk questions and answers

463

and real spontaneous not planned not scripted native english conversation i'm gabby from go natural english

464

and this is mike my wonderful boyfriend and we are back with our hat it's actually your hat.

465

Hat -o -questions.

466

Hat -o -questions.

467

Hat -o -topics.

468

Hat -o -topics yes

469

and then we make up the questions as we go our

470

goal is to come up with ten questions per topic

471

and of course we'll be answering them as well

472

so we're gonna try to keep them kind of light small talk questions so

473

that you can shadow along with us

474

you can build your toolbox of English small talk questions for your next conversation

475

and if you would like to download a free PDF with all of the questions

476

that we're asking each other so

477

that you can review them really easily you can do

478

that at gonaturalenglish .com slash anyone

479

because the point of today is how to talk with anyone

480

because that's really fun right absolutely i mean most of the time actually

481

i think we do good at it like when we're out getting coffee

482

and stuff we just strike up conversation i was just gonna say

483

this morning we took a really nice walk to a new

484

cafe well new for you i've been there once before

485

and we struck up conversations with multiple people along the way

486

how did we strike up conversations with strangers how did we

487

talk to anyone in the real world like what did we actually do i think some people talked to us

488

because i have a very cute husky dog a siberian husky

489

so a lot of people comments on my dog they say oh she's

490

so cute or i love your dog can i pet your dog

491

so that's a hack if you have a pet

492

that you can bring with you

493

or borrow someone else's pet do you remember anything else

494

that we did i mean no

495

you hit the ultimate hack having a cute dog in your life is the ultimate way to break the ice

496

and talk to people for sure yes probably works

497

if you have kids or babies too i would assume um

498

so having a cute child might work yeah

499

so should we jump right into it let's get into it all right just before

500

we start again i highly encourage

501

you to go to gonaturalenglish .com slash anyone to get your free download of all these questions

502

so you can practice along with us and review afterwards it's totally free

503

and it's like instant it'll show up in your inbox

504

when you enter your name and your email on the page all right

505

so who gets to start this time as always

506

i always say ladies first ladies first i think

507

you should be first gabby all right i'm not looking i'm not cheating okay the topic is where someone lives

508

or where they are from go for it

509

so gabby where did you grow up i grew up all over the place

510

so i wasn't really born

511

and raised in any one particular place

512

i was born in minnesota in the midwest in the united

513

states a lot of people always ask me what country are

514

you from i am from the united states born in minnesota

515

but i lost most of my accent from the from the uh from minnesota most of it uh

516

now i have more of a standard american accent i would say from all my years of teaching

517

and traveling and living abroad but when i was young my family

518

and i my parents and i we moved around a lot

519

and we ended up living in several different states we lived in minnesota hawaii indiana maine where we are now

520

and then as an adult i lived all over the world normally i would ask how about you yes um

521

but we're going we're going yeah we're going like

522

new questions yes oh you guys you're gonna have to just wait to find out where mike is from where do you live

523

so i live right here in south portland maine um

524

this is i can yeah don't say your address yeah okay i'm not

525

that new to the world a little wet behind my ears still no

526

so uh i live here in south portland maine um you know

527

and to answer the question where i grew up i grew up here um i wasn't born here

528

but i was born in new york city

529

but um i grew up in south portland

530

then i traveled around a lot i've lived in new york city as an adult

531

i lived in santa fe new mexico i lived in maui hawaii

532

and then eventually found myself back here in maine

533

so i am here yeah i think that's why we get along

534

so well we've lived many different places

535

and then we met here yes um okay what else could

536

i ask you about well do you well where was your favorite place to live out of all the places

537

i lived um i feel like again this is like just inviting comments

538

but uh i'm gonna go with maui hawaii i mean

539

it's hard to turn down paradise yes you know they talk about the aloha spirit

540

and i found that to be true the the people there are just

541

so kind so friendly and if you're respectful people will welcome you in

542

and with open arms open heart

543

and of course it's a tropical paradise yeah you can go snorkeling

544

and go hiking go swimming in waterfalls swimming in the ocean yeah it's just incredible yeah yeah

545

if people haven't traveled to hawaii put it on your bucket highly recommended

546

i mentioned also as a child i It's not couple years living in Hawaii and it was magical.

547

So I agree.

548

So Gabby, if you weren't living here in Maine, where do you think you might enjoy living?

549

Oh, that's a great question.

550

I've enjoyed living in different countries, in different cities in the U .S.

551

I think I would enjoy living, you know, I'd love to go back to Japan.

552

We've talked about that a little bit.

553

I think that would be really fun i like places

554

that um where i can like use another language

555

so even in the u .s

556

if it's somewhere where there's um a lot of maybe french speakers

557

or spanish speakers that's really fun for me

558

or hawaii there's a lot of japanese speakers um i recently

559

this is an update since the last video you guys

560

i recently moved from kansas city to back to portland maine

561

so i'm very happy to get settled in here

562

and I'm not quite ready to think about where else I would live

563

but that's a good question um I have to say also this bird is very

564

birds enjoy small talk too

565

they don't even need anybody else to talk to they're just happy to talk to themselves

566

if they could just let us talk so

567

Mike you're an expert in this area

568

because okay you've lived here for several years sure

569

so what do you think are the top three good things about living in the portland

570

or south portland area of maine southern maine let's say southern maine um all right

571

so if i'm gonna go with what is really nice about here is i love the four seasons

572

so you know here in maine you get summer winter spring

573

and fall um i wish spring and fall would maybe a little longer

574

and maybe the winter was a little shorter

575

but it's really really cool to see the changing of the seasons

576

and the leaves change like right now it's you know mid -september

577

so this is like my favorite favorite time of year like

578

weather is getting a little cooler like the leaves are just

579

slightly starting to change the bugs are kind of going away

580

so this is like my favorite a lot of people come here to see the changing leaves yes

581

it's really beautiful i'm excited for that actually leaf peeping yes very cool um

582

so i would say and

583

that kind of brings me to another great thing about living in maine is the nature yes

584

so here you know you have

585

so many opportunities to get outside you can go hiking in

586

so many different places like go kayaking sailing go to the beach um maine just has

587

so many opportunities for outdoor adventure

588

which is my big thing i'm a huge outdoor nature lover uh and then i would say that um

589

finally it's just a really like safe place to live

590

you know the people are friendly

591

it's a safe place like you're not even going to have natural disasters like earthquakes

592

and hurricanes and stuff like that

593

so it's just a very just cold just just cold in the winter that's probably the worst

594

but yeah but it's just a calm safe enjoyable place to live yes yeah it's good trade -off okay

595

so you said the activities the um this bird is driving me insane i cannot concentrate

596

Okay, so now that I did my Ranger Mike thing and kindly asked our noisy bird neighbor to leave, I wanted to ask you about.
