Hello, my name is Jay and this is a slow English vlog.
2
Today, I am taking a flight.
3
I am getting on this plane to go to Geneva on a day trip.
4
But first, let's rewind to yesterday.
5
Hello from yesterday.
6
I am going to pack my bag for tomorrow.
7
And this is everything I'm bringing on my day trip.
8
So first, my laptop, which is quite heavy, but I do need it for work.
9
And my laptop charger.
10
and I'm bringing a European adapter so
11
that I can switch out the British head for this to allow me to charge in Switzerland.
12
I'm going to put them into this bag so that the cables don't get tangled up.
13
This is my wallet and my notebook and pen.
14
These are my microphones to help me film and probably most important, my passport.
15
I can't get on the plane without this.
16
and my airpods and some toiletries.
17
So this is my deodorant,
18
my toothbrush, my toothpaste and dental floss and my tongue scraper. and lastly my sunscreen
19
because it's going to be sunny in Geneva I'm going to zip it up
20
and I'm also bringing my cap to protect me from the
21
sun let's put all of these items into my backpack I'm going to unzip it
22
and slide my laptop in and all of the other items as well.
23
I'm putting my wallet and AirPods into the top compartment so I can access them easily.
24
Also my passport into the top.
25
and zip it up and that's it.
26
It's not too heavy because it's only a day trip.
27
I'm all set to go and the time is already 9 p.m.
28
I need to wake up at 4 a.m which is in seven hours.
29
So I'm going to get ready for bed and see you in the morning.
30
Good morning.
31
I am currently in a taxi on my way to the airport.
32
It is 5 past 5 a.m.
33
and the traffic is not too bad at this time so we should be at the airport in about 20 minutes.
34
I got about five hours of sleep last night, which is not too bad, but I am still feeling a little bit tired,
35
so maybe I can get a quick nap on the flight.
36
See you at the airport.
37
I'm in the airport.
38
It's honestly quite busy, but luckily I am not checking in a bag.
39
I'm only bringing my backpack so I can head straight to security.
40
Okay, I think that is the lounge.
41
Apparently with my credit card, I can get in.
42
So let's see if that's true.
43
I managed to get into the lounge and behind me is a departures board.
44
My flight is at 7am, it's to Geneva, and it says gate shown at 6.15.
45
So let's come back and check for our gate in a few minutes.
46
But in the meantime, let's head into the lounge and find some breakfast.
47
So this is what I got myself for breakfast, starting with the drinks.
48
I got a bit greedy and got three.
49
This is my coffee, my glass of orange juice, and glass of water.
50
I got this tiny little croissant, and this strawberry bircher muesli.
51
And over here, it's sort of like an English breakfast with scrambled egg,
52
baked beans, some diced potatoes, a slice of cheese and some bacon.
53
And over here is my cutlery.
54
A spoon, knife and fork.
55
You can see how short the tip of the knife is.
56
That's due to safety regulations as we're in an airport.
57
Before I get on my flight, I want to get a bottle of water, or as some say, a bottle of water.
58
I'm going to get one for myself and one for my cameraman.
59
Let's go and check out.
60
Alright, thank you.
61
Alright, we've got the waters.
62
I am getting on this plane.
63
I am walking down the boarding bridge, about to board my flight.
64
Here is the entrance to the plane.
65
Morning.
66
The flight was packed, so I couldn't film much, but my seat had a good amount of legroom,
67
was a place to put my water bottle
68
and a nice big tray table and they brought everyone a chocolate which was a very nice touch.
69
I have landed in Geneva Airport.
70
The flight was only about one hour long.
71
I didn't really get any sleep but that's okay.
72
We are headed to Passport Control and this is a moving walkway which allows you to walk faster.
73
I'm just waiting in line at passport control.
74
It looks to me like quite a long queue ahead so I hope it doesn't take too long.
75
So passport control didn't take too long, maybe 20 minutes or so.
76
Geneva or Switzerland as a whole is very known for their watches which reminds me that
77
I need to change the time on my watch because the time here is one hour ahead of the time in London.
78
So I'm just looking for signs for the train.
79
I think it's that way.
80
I found the sign.
81
Trains that way.
82
This is the ticket machine and I am trying to buy a train ticket to Geneva Station.
83
I've got my train tickets and this is the train that I will be getting on.
84
It has two floors, which means it's a double-decker train.
85
Let's head over to the door and press this button, which should open the door,
86
and I am I'm stepping onto the train and I actually want to go up the stairs to the upper deck.
87
Look at this, it's like a curved sofa.
88
I've never seen something like this on a train.
89
So spacious I could even lie down.
90
But let's not do that.
91
The train journey to Geneva is actually only 7 minutes.
92
So we should be there in a couple of minutes actually
93
and I will have to get up from my very comfortable seat.
94
But yes, very excited to see Geneva and explore the city.
95
I'll see you there.
96
So, I have made it into the city and I am actually heading to a cafe now
97
because I have to attend an online meeting for work.
98
I think the cafe is just around the corner here.
99
Here it is.
100
This is the cafe.
101
I got an espresso tonic, which was nice and refreshing.
102
I sat down on my laptop to join the meeting.
103
So I've come to the park and this is part of the University of Geneva.
104
The good news is that I'm all done with my work meetings today,
105
but the bad news is that both my phone and my laptop are dead.
106
They are out of battery,
107
and apparently in this library they have plugs where I can charge my laptop and phone.
108
So let's go inside and charge my devices.
109
So, I'm in the library now.
110
I have to speak very quietly so that I don't bother the other people.
111
But right below here, I found some plugs.
112
So, I managed to charge both my phone and laptop.
113
My phone is now on 80%,
114
so that should last me all the way back home tonight and I am feeling quite hungry,
115
so I am on my way now to look for some lunch.
116
I'm at a restaurant.
117
This was recommended to me as a famous galette restaurant,
118
and this is the menu with a long list of options, but I have decided to get the Popeye,
119
which is egg, cheese and spinach.
120
Since it's such a beautiful day outside,
121
I decided to do takeout and I'm going to the park to have a picnic.
122
So, I've made it to the park.
123
I found this nice spot which overlooks the lake.
124
And over here, a beautiful fountain.
125
I mean, this is really nice, but I have my eyes on the food because I am really...
126
Oh no!
127
I almost spilled my drink.
128
Let's make sure not to do that.
129
And I'm going to open up the box.
130
Alright, let's give it a try.
131
I wonder if I'm supposed to dip it into the yolk.
132
Let's try that.
133
Okay.
134
It's nice, but it is pretty salty.
135
And for my drink, I got an iced cacao latte, or at least that's what they called it in the cafe.
136
I'm assuming it will be sweet?
137
Okay, actually it's quite bitter.
138
I do taste the chocolate, but it's like dark chocolate.
139
And there is also a hint of cinnamon.
140
But overall, it's quite nice.
141
I finished my lunch and I am just lying here on the grass.
142
I need to make sure I don't accidentally fall asleep because it's already 5pm and my return flight departs at 8.50pm,
143
which means I need to head to the airport in about an hour and a half.
144
So I'll probably get up and go for a little walk along the lake.
145
behind me is the famous water fountain called
146
jet d'eau which is French for water jet
147
and apparently it launches water up to a height of about a hundred
148
and forty meters I didn't know that you can actually walk up very close to the source of the jet stream.
149
You can see how the water is kind of blocking the sunlight and I don't know if it's because of the water,
150
but it does definitely feel a bit cooler here by a couple of degrees.
151
So, I've been walking in the sun for quite a while now and I really could do with some gelato.
152
And I've heard that Geneva has some good gelato spots.
153
So I'm going to go on my phone and look up some places nearby.
154
I think I found the perfect spot.
155
It's only seven minutes away.
156
So let's walk over to get some gelato.
157
So this is a pedestrian crossing and you can see the green light is flashing,
158
which means I need to hurry up.
159
I think I have found the store Gelatomania.
160
It's pretty busy though, so I'll have to wait a little bit.
161
Can I get the three in a pot?
162
Yes, in the pot, okay?
163
Yeah, and I'll get the sea salt, the coconut and the peach, please.
164
Okay.
165
I'm ready to get this one.
166
Okay.
167
Wow, I think he gave us a little bit extra on top because look at this.
168
This is supposed to be a small one, but it's huge.
169
Okay, I'm gonna try the top layer, which I think is the peach.
170
Oh, that is.. that is amazing.
171
It feels like I'm biting into a real peach.
172
And the second layer, which I think is coconut.
173
Mmm.
174
Not only does it taste like coconut, I feel like there's little bits of real coconut in there.
175
Wow.
176
And the bottom layer, which is the sea salt.
177
It's like the perfect balance of salty and sweet.
178
Genuinely, this is probably the best gelato I've ever had in my life.
179
I would probably come back to Geneva just to have this again.
180
And just like that, it is now time to head back to the airport.
181
I am going to walk to Geneva station, take the train to the airport,
182
and fly back to London.
183
I am back at the airport and my flight is this one, 8.50pm to London Heathrow.
184
But one thing I cannot forget is to buy some chocolates for a gift.
185
So let's go into the chocolate shop and take a look around.
186
Wow, so many chocolates.
187
And this is pretty cool, it's a fake cocoa tree,
188
and inside is a chocolate fountain, but it says, do not touch, so let's keep walking.
189
I really like the packaging, so I'm going to get this one.
190
And then it was time to board.
191
There's my plane.
192
I was so tired that I slept through most of the flight,
193
but I still managed to get a view of Windsor Castle as we were coming in to land.
194
I have made it back to London Heathrow Airport.
195
It's been about 16 hours since I came here this morning.
196
I am exhausted, but I hope you enjoyed the video.
197
Please let me know your thoughts in the comments and I'll see you in the next one.
198
Bye!

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
