Hello people!

Do you like to live where you live now?

Or do you like to live in another place in the world?

Today we are going to ask people in the city of Mexico where you would like to live and why.

Let's go!

If you could live in any part of the world where you would like to live.

I think in this moment of my life I would like to live in China.

I have a lot of friends that are there.

but it is a very interesting thing right now, culture, food, there is a lot of people traveling there, there is a lot to do,

everything is very different from what we are used to in the occidental culture, so I think it is a great experience, a good exchange cultural.

In Mérida, here in Mexico, I've heard a lot of beautiful things from Mérida.

Korea.

Why in Korea?

I think because of the streets, the city, as it is night,

The calmness that one transmits in the movies or the movies, I would like to go there.

Of course, I love Mexico.

I love Mexico.

What part of Mexico?

Precisely, the Condesa is wonderful.

For me, it's easy, Italy.

Especially in the Toscana.

I've always liked it, but I just went to two years ago and I'm in love.

Definitely would choose Italy.

Yes.

What do you call the attention of Italy?

Well, the truth is that I love Italian food.

I love the pasta, I love the pizzas.

And I had the opportunity to go once, two years ago, and literally every day I had pasta.

So, I would love to live in Italy for that, for the food.

I would love to live in Denmark, definitely.

What do you call the attention of Denmark?

Well, I don't know, I'm a very happy place, that people are always happy and very just with their citizens.

I would like to try it.

I would love to live in Islandia.

Wow, what's the attention of Islandia?

The volcanoes.

I love the volcanoes.

All the mountains that are there are very beautiful.

Maybe a little Canada, because the cold weather and the snow.

I would move to Mexico City or if not, I would move to Medellin.

Those are my two options because both are beautiful.

There are a lot of things to do, there are a lot of cultures, a lot of delicious food.

What do you think is important in a place to choose to live in that place?

Well, I think the quality of life that makes you feel safe, that makes you feel happy.

Because even if you are not happy or uncomfortable, it is not to live, at the end.

First, accessibility.

That it is not so expensive in terms of where we are going to live, food and all that.

And that there are many different things to do, and that it is a safe place, being a woman, that it is safe. So, especially security.

To feel safe, to be able to travel by the nights without you having the concern that something can occur.

That is what one more value is, security.

Security, the prices of living, and all that.

I think it's important the language, but not essential.

Obviously it's more difficult to be able to get to meet people, but I think that's part of the cultural shock, the experience you have to go to,

to get from a different point of view of that experience.

But I think it's important to be able to be able to be able to go.

You can be moved, and always a plus, having friends that are traveling around or that have been before, and to exchange opinions, experiences,

advice, or even to see them over there and show you a little bit what they learned.

Much the lifestyle of life.

So, traffic, I walk here in Mexico, I use the bike.

Where we are at the Condesa, there is no noise. So, that is one.

And the second, the environment.

Well, that the place is beautiful.

Or that you can live in a good, tranquility.

I don't like the city, so that there is much traffic and that I like.

So I like the nature.

And I think that it's something very important for me to live in another place.

I also like places where you can walk with your dog.

For example, I like that the playa, that's why I like.

Because you can walk there, see the nightlife.

How is my mom saying?

A place that's natural, that's agradable, for the hours.

What is the main thing that my mother is always to have a stable job, to have goals, and in any case,

if I have the money and the time, why not take it away?

How do you feel with the idea of starting a new life in a new place?

I think it's a bit difficult, but not because, especially if it's a place where you don't speak the language or it's different from your language,

I think it's a bit difficult.

And also because of the culture that have other people, I think that's what's more difficult, the culture and the language.

I would be very nervous, first, first, for the language.

Second, it would be very exciting to get to a place, as you said, from zero and meet so many different people,

it would be a great experience to explore all those horizons that take away from your comfort zone.

I already did it before, so once you start doing it, I think there is no way back, you can do it much easier.

Of course, it's a bit hard to face things you don't know, changes changes of routine, of places, even a different language.

But I think we all do.

It requires being brave, to be open to everything that you can find.

But I recommend it very much.

Well, I would like to say, it would be great to know, to explore, because you don't know.

But, however, knowing new people, knowing their traditions, their culture.

I've been working all the time, I'm a entrepreneur, so I started things from scratch.

I have 34 years old, I live in four different countries.

I started to create something from scratch.

It's me.

It's me, because it's just everything I have here.

I can't leave my work, I can't leave my dogs, because I'm not in my bed or I'm not in my bed.

I can't leave everything to start from scratch.

Yes, it will be complicated, but I don't see why not to try it.

Also in the videos, we also have a podcast.

In the podcast we can talk about some topics with more extension.

We talk about topics of everyday life, such as this video, or cultural topics of the Spanish-speaking countries.

100

And the podcast you can listen to while you're walking your dog, while you're leaving your house, or anything else.

101

And with the membership of the podcast, you get a interactive transcript for you to read while you're listening.

102

and the vocab helper that shows the words and expressions most important with their translation minute to minute.

103

If you are interested to see all the things that include this membership and see our other membership, we leave the link in the description of the episode.

104

When you are outside of home, even in other cities, what do you like from home?

105

The food.

106

The truth is that part of what I can't stop eating is the Mexican food, which I consider super rich.

107

The food, of course.

108

That's always Mexico.

109

The food can't be left and my close people.

110

Although they're far away, I always remember them with love.

111

One, the family, obviously.

112

I'm going to see them after almost 3 months, 4 months of not seeing them.

113

My dad, my mom, my brothers.

114

And two, the food.

115

I mean, in Mexico, something I love is that.

116

The tacos, the food.

117

Well, they say spicy, but that you know something. So...

118

The sazón.

119

The sazón, yes, yes, yes.

120

To get to another place and not have the same sazón, it's complicated.

121

Yes.

122

You could go to a McDonald's or any chain of fast food

123

that you know is safe and that you have that knowledge

124

but those tacos or the food of your parents that you know the season that has, well, nobody will be able to give you.

125

I think that the privilege in Mexico is the climate, so I and my husband, it happens that when we go to the city,

126

it is that's nice to return to this climate.

127

My dogs.

128

What I was going to say, my dog.

129

My family, obviously, but my dogs, because they're the ones who always follow me.

130

I would like to bring them to a city like this, but they don't know how to travel.

131

My dogs.

132

It's what I'm more like.

133

I'm more like to be able to spend time with them.

134

I feel like maybe my friends and my family, but the truth is that when I go to travel I forget everything

135

so I only enjoy it If you had to choose between being in Mexico all your life and not leaving

136

or being able to leave anywhere outside of Mexico but never back what would you choose?

137

No, I would be in Mexico I would be with Mexico a thousand times, the food, the people me to go to the places where when I arrive,

138

I want to go back to my country with my beautiful people and my delicious food.

139

No, I'm staying in Mexico, no problem.

140

Here you can find everything without needing to go out of the country. So easy.

141

Well, my family is here, my friends, and maybe many people can't go out of the country, maybe because they don't have any visa or because they don't have any visa,

142

so I don't know if I would decide to go out.

143

Well, of love that I have to have my family, it's Mexico, to leave Mexico without leaving, because we have a very rich culture,

144

not only the culinary, but in general.

145

So, to be in Mexico, we have a lot to explore.

146

I also think I'm going to be with Mexico because it's like my home.

147

We've grown up and lived the most of our lives.

148

I want to know everyone.

149

I know Mexico.

150

I love my Mexico, of course, but I know it very well, so maybe I'll take the opportunity to know something new.

151

And of course, I'll miss all of the time.

152

I don't have any doubts.

153

I also like to live in the beach.

154

I mean...

155

A beautiful beach.

156

The weather, the weather, the weather.

157

The sea, the sea, the sea, the sea.

158

The sea, the sea, the sea, the sea.

159

Now I would like to know where to live.

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
