Hello everyone.

Herkese merhaba.

Welcome back to another Speak With Me video.

This video is a little bit special.

This is a different one.

Lately I've been using some guidelines, some notes, some prompts, some context to kind of guide the class.

Son zamanlarda dersi yönlendirmek için bazı yönergeler, notlar, ipuçları ve bağlam kullanıyorum.

But this one, this one's going to be more natural, more like bare bones, just raw, real.

I'm just going to wing it.

I'm going to wing it.

You know what that means?

I'm gonna wing it is like I'm not even prepared I

have nothing prepared I'm just gonna do it I'm just gonna

do it come on let's just do it let's let's wing it I'm gonna wing it

and this is gonna be a little bit a little bit personal

so very realistic real life stuff I'm gonna be talking about what's going on in my life right now

and kind of the whole thought process behind it and how I am navigating this,

navigating this, because I was thinking about it.

I was talking about it.

And I realized that there's a lot of words, vocabulary, a lot of phrases, a lot of things that you guys could learn from a real life situation

that I'm going through and how I process it, how I think about it, talk about it.

Let me know in the comments, you can write down words or phrases that you learned in this video.

If you watch the video until the end, please tell me in the comments.

I really appreciate knowing that people are watching until the end, and I saw some people did that on my last video, and I really appreciate that.

Okay, so let's just get right into it.

Let's dive right into it.

You might know, you might know if you've been following my videos, my journey a little bit, if you've been paying attention, you might know that I have been in Puerto Rico.

That's how we say it in English, right?

Puerto Rico.

Porto Riko.

Yeah, that's gringo Spanish.

Anyways, so I've been in Puerto Rico for about two months now, like almost two months.

We're getting to be, we're getting to the end of May.

Today is May 22nd.

It's getting to be the end of May.

I arrived, I got here in Puerto Rico, April 1st. So I have been here like almost two months, right?

And so far there have been some ups and downs and, but a lot of good things, like mostly good things.

I have been staying with a friend of mine here.

And the thing is, is like, I had never stayed with this friend before coming here.

And I was just kind of taking a, taking a risk, like taking a chance on this, you know, living situation.

You know, I was hesitant about it.

I was a little bit unsure, uncertain about this prior to coming, but I said, well, you know what?

It's just, Puerto Rico is very expensive.

I want to go there.

You know, these are my, my friends.

I want to hang out and I want to, you know, save money, um, by sharing the rent and it's just cheaper.

It's easier.

It's great.

Uh, I like the location.

Everything just seemed like this is the way to go.

So I've been staying with, with a friend here and I don't want to talk really about the friend

Bir süredir burada bir arkadaşımın yanında kalıyorum ve arkadaşım hakkında pek konuşmak istemiyorum.

or about what you know what our interactions are like i don't want to get into

that stuff it's it's not worth it

and it's like i don't want to talk about someone like

that on here or whatever it's nothing nothing horrible nothing really bad nothing whatever

but basically there is some incompatibility with living together um it's not that anybody is a bad person or anybody is,

you know, not a good friend or whatever.

It's just that we are not, um, really compatible to live together anymore.

And I've been, I've been, I've been like noticing that, but I've been trying to just kind of stick it out.

We say stick it out.

So stick it out is like to stay longer, to see if you can just deal with it, you know, keep going and deal with it stick it out.

Maybe it'll get better.

Maybe it'll be okay.

But it's just gotten to the point where it's too much.

It's gotten to the point where I don't want to deal with it anymore.

I don't want to share a living space anymore.

I don't want to live together anymore.

And so the issue is that I then had to figure out, okay, so if I'm going to leave, where do I go?

And what am I going to do?

What is my plan?

What's the game plan here?

What's the plan?

What's the next move, right?

Where are we going?

Because if you don't know, you should know if you're a big fan of this channel.

But if you don't know, I am a nomad.

I'm always traveling around, always going around.

I don't have a home.

Evim yok.

I don't have a place where I live.

I travel and I go back to my home.

No, I don't really feel like I have a home.

I just kind of go around.

I'm just always nomading.

So I had to think, okay, well, where do I want to go next?

But the issue is that I am in Puerto Rico.

I am currently in United States territory because Puerto Rico is U .S territory.

And I need to renew my passport.

And I have to stay within U .S territory to renew my passport.

And renewing my passport is going to take, even if I expedite it, even if I pay extra for expedited processing, so like extra fast processing,

it's still going to take probably like three weeks okay at least a couple weeks probably three weeks

so I have to be in the U .S to be to receive it

when when they send it to me in the mail

so I can't go anywhere right

because I am already thinking about like my next place

that I want to travel to my next country I want

to go to is Colombia I've already been to Colombia a couple times

but I want to go back I'm planning on going to Colombia as my next country.

But I can't go right now because I need to renew my passport before I leave.

Because if I don't do it now, then I'm going to have to deal with it within the next year because my passport expires a year from now.

And I don't want to be stressed, you know, thinking like, oh, I got to go back to the US and renew my passport.

I just want to take care of it now.

I just want to do it now.

100

So then it will be valid for another 10 years.

101

And then I'm good.

102

I don't have to think about it.

103

So that's what I'm thinking.

104

I need to stay here, get my passport, and then I can go to Colombia.

105

But I'm in a sticky situation.

106

I'm in a difficult, tricky situation.

107

Not really like a crisis.

108

I think that's a strong word for this situation.

109

But I want to leave where I'm currently staying in Puerto Rico, but I can't leave the US.

110

So my options are get my own place in Puerto Rico, like get an Airbnb or something.

111

The problem is that any of the locations

112

that I would want to be in here near the beach area in Puerto Rico, not too far from my friends, is very expensive.

113

It's very touristy and the Airbnb prices are high because, well, for one, Puerto Rico is part of the US, so it is expensive, you know,

114

almost like living in the U S or the same as living in the U S really.

115

Like I go to restaurants here once in a while.

116

And I'm like, this is like the same as the United States prices.

117

Like it's expensive here.

118

Um, but it's also a popular touristy area.

119

And so, so Airbnb prices are just through the roof, through the roof.

120

They're just so high.

121

There's yeah.

122

Crazy high.

123

And it's out of my budget.

124

Like I don't normally pay that much because I don't live in the United States.

125

And I don't really make enough money to live by myself to have my own apartment in the United States.

126

If I lived in the U S

127

if I wanted to live in the U S I would have to have a roommate.

128

I'd have to have roommates.

129

I'd have to share an apartment or something because I can't, I can't afford it myself.

130

And especially on Airbnb, the prices are even higher than what they would be.

131

If like, if I actually got a contract and stayed long -term, I could probably find a decent apartment in Puerto Rico that I can afford.

132

But the problem is that Airbnb is so much more expensive.

133

The prices are jacked up.

134

We say the prices are jacked up on Airbnb.

135

They're high.

136

They're higher than if you live here and have a contract and pay rent normally.

137

So I am discouraged, totally discouraged from renting, from getting an Airbnb here in Puerto Rico.

138

And I was just thinking about my other option, which my other option is to go back to Maine,

139

where I'm from, and to stay with some family, some family members.

140

And I thought about it a lot.

141

And going back and staying with my family, it wasn't on my radar.

142

It wasn't on my radar.

143

It wasn't something I was planning to do.

144

I wasn't expecting to do it.

145

Honestly, I was kind of procrastinating about it.

146

I was kind of putting it off.

147

I was putting off visiting my family, like, you know, pushing it, pushing it away.

148

Like, ah, no, I'll do it later.

149

I'll do it later in the future sometime.

150

I don't know.

151

I've been procrastinating about it because it's a whole ordeal.

152

It's a whole hassle, hassle, an ordeal.

153

It's a whole big thing.

154

It's a whole process.

155

It's a, it's like, I have to get on a plane and go all the way up there.

156

And then all the way back down when I want to leave.

157

It's more money.

158

It's more flights.

159

It's, it's, it's like totally the opposite direction of Columbia.

160

Like it's, you know, like I want to go South.

161

I don't want to go North.

162

Right.

163

Like it's just, it, you know, Maine is all the way up, like on the border of Canada.

164

It's, you know, Northeast, the most North Eastern state of the country.

165

Um, and so It's just, it's a whole ordeal.

166

It's a whole hassle to go up there.

167

And now this is like first world problems.

168

I'm, I am obviously like complaining or exaggerating, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm talking about something that's really not

169

that big of a deal and I'm making it seem like it's such a big deal.

170

Um, obviously this is a minor problem compared to, you know, much bigger problems in this world.

171

And you know, that some people have, but I'm just being honest about the, these are the things that I consider.

172

It is the other direction.

173

It's out of the way.

174

It's out of the way.

175

It's more money, more flights.

176

I don't like planes.

177

I don't like airports.

178

You might not expect this about me because you might think, oh, she's a nomad.

179

So she loves to travel.

180

The truth is, I don't really like to travel.

181

I like to be in different places.

182

I like to see different places.

183

I like to experience different places.

184

I don't like airports.

185

I don't like airplanes.

186

I don't like the process of traveling.

187

I just like being there, you know, as the years go by, as the months go by, I'm really getting more and more tired of traveling.

188

So my plan once I, you know, go to Columbia is to slow down my traveling

189

and to try to stay as long as I possibly can in each location

190

that I go to try to stay like the full amount of time that I'm allowed on a tourist visa.

191

So like in Colombia, for example, if you extend it, you can stay up to six months in a year.

192

So, you know, the older version of me, I mean, the past version of me, me in the past would maybe just stay like two months, three months and leave.

193

But I am going to try to stay as long as possible in each place I go

194

because I need to slow down and not travel so frequently for many reasons that I'm talking about right now.

195

But yeah, so that's my plan.

196

So it's like painful to like go up to visit my family for just a few weeks, all the way up there for a few weeks.

197

And you know, and you can say, oh, well, why don't you stay for a long time?

198

So it's worth it

199

because I'll go crazy that's why I can't stay with my

200

family for like more than a month I think I'd go

201

crazy I don't even know how I'm gonna do like a few weeks

202

or a month like I love my family

203

and I love certain things about being there but I also sacrifice a certain level of freedom,

204

of independence, of convenience, of accessibility, of just my normal life when I go there.

205

Because my family doesn't live in cities where I can walk to places and take public transportation.

206

Like in the United States, that's not even really that common of a thing anyways.

207

But if you live in like a super big urban area, then yeah, it's a thing.

208

But my family doesn't live in cities like that.

209

So I can't walk anywhere.

210

I can't, I can't go anywhere because I don't have a car.

211

So I depend on them to go anywhere.

212

Um, I basically don't have a social life outside of my family.

213

When I go, my whole social life is my family.

214

You know, I can't, I can't go to the gym.

215

I can't like there's certain drawbacks, like negative things, like cons, certain drawbacks, certain cons of being there, certain things I sacrifice by being there.

216

There are pros and there are cons of visiting my family.

217

And so I'm just kind of weighing these pros and cons in my head.

218

I'm kind of weighing them.

219

So I thought about it a lot.

220

And basically, it got to the point where I just thought that this is probably the best option.

221

My family really wants to see me.

222

My family always wants to see me.

223

They always want me to visit.

224

They're very welcoming.

225

They're very accommodating.

226

My family is great.

227

Really, they're great.

228

If they weren't, I wouldn't go, but they are so great, really, in many ways.

229

And they want me to visit and they get so excited when I visit and they wish that I visited more often.

230

They wish that I lived there all the time.

231

It's hard for them to deal with the fact

232

that I don't want to live there

233

and I'm always out of the country um it's hard it's hard for them

234

and i feel guilty a little bit i feel a little bad about it like i i don't feel guilty

235

because i don't think that i am doing anything wrong it's not because

236

that i think i'm doing something wrong like i think i'm totally fine with you know my choice of lifestyle

237

but i feel a little guilty because i know

238

that i could go visit them like once a year

239

or something like I could make more effort and I don't

240

and I just feel I don't know I just feel a little bad I feel a little sad for them

241

because I know that like they want me to visit more

242

and stuff I miss them sometimes but I don't I don't feel like, oh, I got to see them.

243

Like, I don't know, it's not the same.

244

Like, I love them, but I don't feel like that is my home.

245

Even though I grew up there, even though I grew up in Maine, I don't go back to Maine and feel like, oh, I'm home now.

246

I don't feel like that at all.

247

It's like, I don't feel homesick.

248

I don't, you know, I don't feel like any sadness at all about that.

249

If anything, I feel sadness about like missing Latin America when I'm in Maine for too long.

250

Like when I'm in the U S for too long, I miss, you know, I miss Latin America.

251

I feel, I feel homesick. So yeah.

252

So, so basically that's the question I've been asking.

253

That's the thing I've been dealing with.

254

And I decided to go home and visit my family after all, after all the, the thinking and contemplating and, and, you know, mulling it over,

255

mulling it over, thinking about it, contemplating it.

256

I decided to, to go.

257

Yeah.

258

It's just, I think it's the best for everybody.

259

I think it's going to be the best for me

260

and for my family and for even my friends here in Puerto Rico.

261

You know, we're still friends.

262

Everything is good.

263

You know, everything's fine.

264

But I think it was a lot to live together when we're not super compatible to live together.

265

And we have some things in common, but we have other things not in common, you know.

266

So I think it's just gonna be better for everybody for

267

like just kind of a separation a change a break

268

or not a break but like a you know just me go with my family

269

and yeah let me be more specific because i'm just saying my family

270

but the truth is is that i'm going to stay with not my parents

271

so okay so i so if you've been watching my videos for a

272

while you might remember that my mom died

273

and i don't talk to my dad um he's not even my biological father anyways

274

but i call him my dad because i I grew up with him as my dad and whatever, but I don't talk to him.

275

The people that I talk to that I have good relationships with are my stepdad and my stepmom.

276

Yes, I know it's very strange to understand, but my parents are out of the picture, but my step parents are in the picture.

277

And then there's other people too, like my brother, my aunts and my grandma and whatever.

278

So that's like what I mean when I say my family, but specifically I'm going to stay with my stepmom who has remarried.

279

She has a new husband.

280

She has a daughter who's like 12 and they live in Maine and they live in a house in the woods.

281

Just like how I grew up.

282

I grew up in a house in the woods.

283

It's not extremely remote.

284

It's like 30 minute drive from a small city in the airport.

285

It's still like I guess rural I guess like small town

286

mostly houses in the woods with the trees all around you know it's a house in the woods

287

so the great thing is that the they have water

288

that comes from a well and you know it's like nature it's peace

289

and quiet there are pros to being there of course with you know it's

290

that location but but it is it does feel a little bit isolating for me when I'm used to being in cities,

291

when I'm used to, I usually travel around to big cities.

292

So, yeah, like a lot of the times I'm in big cities, I'm in capital cities, you know, I'm in places like, you know, New York and Los Angeles,

293

but like the Latin American version or the Asian version of that, not in the US.

294

But so to be in my family's house in the woods in Maine is like,

295

yeah it's a little bit of PTSD from my childhood I'm kidding I'm kidding I love nature

296

and I love the countryside and I have spent most of my life there

297

and I love gardening and I love you know stuff like

298

that but I want to have that and access to more community

299

and social life and stuff but when I only have that and my family, like my blood family, it feels like not enough to,

300

you know, long -term like short -term it's okay, but not, not long -term I'll start to go a little, little crazy.

301

I just start to get like kind of depressed, you know?

302

Um, but I'm, I'm feeling good.

303

I think I'm going to be there for a short amount of time.

304

I think everything's going to be a fine.

305

Um, nowadays at this point in my life, I have a good mentality.

306

My mental health has been really good lately.

307

And I have been, I've been consistently working out and I'm going to, even though I can't go to the gym,

308

I'm going to continue to find ways to work out even there in the house in the woods.

309

I'm doing my work and, you know, normal life will continue just there.

310

You know, I'm still going to be around people to interact with.

311

It's not like I'm going to be completely out in, you know, by myself.

312

So it should be fine.

313

It should be fine.

314

I will be fine.

315

Another thing is that I am vegan and nobody in my family is vegan and my family doesn't really understand veganism.

316

They're very accommodating and generally pretty respectful.

317

even though they don't really understand it very much, they, yeah, they don't really understand it or know anything about it, but they, they don't give me crap for it.

318

Like they're, they are respectful of it.

319

They, they have no issue with it.

320

They don't tell me anything bad or, you know, whatever.

321

So they, they respect it even though they don't really understand it, but, but yeah.

322

So that's another thing is that also it's hard for me as a vegan, like, cause I'm used to, I'm used to being by myself,

323

like living in apartments by myself or here in Puerto Rico, I was staying with my vegan friend.

324

So I'm used to that.

325

So when I have to stay with carnists, that's what we call non -vegan people, carnists, carnists.

326

This is not a word that a lot of people know, but it's a word that vegans use.

327

It's, it is a bit like strange for me, like mentally.

328

It is, it is hard for me because I'm not just a vegan, I'm a vegan activist.

329

And so, and if you don't know, if you haven't seen other videos about, you know, where I talk about this, veganism is not a diet.

330

So it's not just like, oh, I just eat different things in my family.

331

Veganism is a, is a, an ethical stance against the exploitation of animals.

332

So when you are vegan, like truly vegan like that you see everything differently and so

333

when i'm living with people who don't see animals the way i see animals it's hard

334

because a lot of a lot of things obviously food

335

but also other things come up you wouldn't expect it comes up so much

336

but it does come up into conversation it comes you know

337

people um you know do things i mean simple little things like my family going and, you know, buying an animal from a pet store or something that,

338

you know, vegans were against because we're against like breeding animals into existence, like as products, you know, um, we're only in support of rescuing.

339

Um, so it's like, not just the food, but everything, right.

340

It's like everywhere I, I look, there's like things that are difficult for me to be around as a vegan.

341

So that's, that's another thing that I have to deal with when I stay with my family.

342

I'm often biting my tongue.

343

That's an expression that means like, I'm not saying what I really want to say because I'm trying to keep the peace.

344

So even though I'm a vegan activist and I normally will not be silenced

345

and I will stand up for animals

346

and I will stand up for what is true and for defending other sentient beings and whatever, even though I do activism

347

and normally that's how I how I talk about the the issue

348

and when I talk to strangers on the street

349

or whoever this is how I talk about it but

350

when I go with my family

351

when I stay with my family I kind of bite my

352

tongue I kind of like you know try I don't say everything

353

that I want to say and some of the things

354

that I say I try to say it in a certain way that's not going to cause problems, right?

355

Like I'm not, I want to keep the peace and I don't want to have issues.

356

So that's something that's difficult to balance is

357

when you're vegan among a non -vegan family and you go and stay with them.

358

It's, it's a bit of like a mind, uh, like a mind fuck.

359

I would say it's like, um, you know, it's, it's a little bit challenging to say the least.

360

It's like imagine this imagine that you know

361

if you were all of a sudden you had to go

362

live with a family of people who you know they they eat dogs

363

and cats and they're they're talking about dogs and cats as

364

if they're you know just like steaks and burgers and how would

365

that make you feel or maybe let's say you don't care about dogs

366

and cats imagine that you are against human slavery So you think human slavery is totally wrong, horrible.

367

And then you go stay with your family and your family is in support of slavery, human slavery.

368

And they pay for it and they buy slaves.

369

And, you know, like imagine how that would feel.

370

Right.

371

So that's what it feels like for me.

372

So I have to just kind of remember that the world

373

that they live in mentally is different than me and they don't see it the way I see it.

374

Like they don't think that it's bad.

375

And so it's not that they're bad people.

376

They're just doing something that they've been kind of programmed to do and not question.

377

They haven't put on the glasses that I have seen that I have put on.

378

Yeah.

379

It's like any time in history when something horrible was normalized and most people just accepted it.

380

It's like if you were the only person who saw that it's actually horrible and everybody else is like, oh, this is totally normal.

381

That's what it's like to be a vegan in this world.

382

So that's another.. issue on top of just going to visit my family right

383

but obviously i'm very grateful that i have a family to receive me

384

that they're very welcoming and loving

385

and they they always try to make my stay good

386

and to take me where i need to go

387

and to make sure that i have food to eat

388

that i like and um a roof over my head

389

and i'm comfortable and whatever um yeah especially my stepmom she's very very very accommodating

390

and she's always trying to to make my stay more enjoyable

391

so i really appreciate that um i'm just being totally honest in this video about everything

392

that i really think and feel and deal with um when

393

when kind of navigating this this issue it's not really an issue

394

but this thing about my life where you know i'm this nomad who's traveling, you know, by myself most of the time, I'm vegan, whatever.

395

Normally I come into contact with people.

396

If I like them, great.

397

If I don't, I can just ignore them and go on my merry way.

398

I can just continue with my life.

399

But when you have blood family

400

and you want to have good relationships with your blood family and you want to keep the peace with them, you know, you have to kind of make effort to do so,

401

even if it doesn't really go so perfectly with your lifestyle.

402

Like, you know, they want to live in a totally different place than me.

403

They want to live a different kind of lifestyle than me.

404

They have different views than me.

405

They have whatever.

406

And so it's just about what are your priorities?

407

And I think the younger version of me, you know, was just like, I don't care.

408

I just want to do what I want.

409

I don't want to make any compromises, you know, for anybody but you know you get older

410

and you're like I don't want to burn bridges I don't

411

want to cut ties with everybody with some people yeah

412

but not everybody so I pick and choose like who are the people

413

that I really can't stand I can't deal with them

414

and who are the people that I can tolerate

415

and I want to make the best and I want to keep

416

that relationship and I want to I want to I I want to hold on to that.

417

And so that's, that's what I do.

418

And, and I'm just trying to, to make the best of, of the family ties that I do have, and that I do tolerate, that I can tolerate.

419

And I, and I, and I do prefer having, because I prefer having some family ties,

420

some ties to my blood family than none at all.

421

You know, I prefer having some than none.

422

You know, some people have really horrible families and they just, you know, they don't have a relationship with any of them.

423

And, uh, and then some people have really great families and they have relationships with all of them.

424

You know, it's, we all kind of just got born into whatever families we got born into.

425

And we're just trying to navigate with what we got.

426

I got some, some people in my family who are pretty good, pretty good people.

427

And like, I don't want to lose those relationships, those bonds.

428

So, So I'm going to go visit them

429

and I'm going to renew my passport and then I'm going to be back traveling the world.

430

Then I'm going to probably go to Colombia and yeah, my adventures in Latin America will continue.

431

My adventures in South America, to be more specific, South America.

432

In the Spanish speaking world, Spanish speaking countries that I love so much.

433

Those aren't the only countries that I love, but you know, if you watch this channel, you know I have a preference for my

434

because I love to speak Spanish what can I say I

435

love it I love it it's a little hard for me

436

when I go back home I can't speak Spanish with anybody

437

it's a little sad it's a little sad I must say

438

so I'm gonna have to call up some of my friends and talk in Spanish on the phone you know

439

I have some books to read I'm gonna read some books in Spanish

440

so that's good that's good all right well next time I

441

film a video next time I see you guys I will

442

be in my family's house I I will be in my stepmom's house.

443

Her name is Nicole.

444

I will be at Nicole's house.

445

And I don't know where I'm gonna be filming videos there, but I'll figure it out.

446

I'll figure it out.

447

Thanks for being here.

448

Thanks for watching to the end.

449

And I'll see you in the next one.

450

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.
