ELLLO  RENT

http://www.elllo.org/english/Mixers/T093-Rent.htm


Lindsay / United States
speakerI definitely would rather rent my own home because right now I can't imagine myself settling down and being in a permanent place for a long time. I haven't lived in one place for more than three years in the last ten years, so it's really hard for me to imagine actually owning my house and staying in there for the rest of my life.
Chris / England
speakerI think it's better to own a home. I know that it's always a big investment. You know, you have to pay a lot of money up front, but I think it's important to think of it as like a long term benefit that's going to provide you with some security when you choose to sell, or when you retire. You're gonna have somewhere to live.
Maiko / England
speakerI prefer to own a home, even though at the moment I rent an apartment, I would very much like to own a home so I can have my own garden and grow plants that I like.
Amir / Iran
speakerI believe that owning a house or owning a home is always better because land prices is something stable and most probably it will become more expensive so getting a loan and trying to own a house is much better than paying money for the rent, which goes nowhere.
Lori / Canada
speakerI would say it's better to own if you possibly can because otherwise you're just throwing money away if you're renting but I also think it's important not to tie up all your money in a home. You should enjoy yourself in other ways and not become 'house poor' as they say.
Eoin / England
speakerAt this stage in life, I think I would rather rent a home because I wouldn't want to be tied to being on one place for a long period of time. Later in life, I can imagine thought that I would like to own a property somewhere

BACKPACKING



M: Hi, everyone, my name is JM and I'm from the Philippines.
Phuong: And I am Phuong. I am from Vietnam.
JM: And today's question is: what do you think of backpackers. So Phuong, what do you think of backpackers?
Phuong: I don't think it's bad to be a backpacker because I myself, once, I was a backpacker to go to like Tokyo, Kyoto, Yokohama. A lot of places in Japan, and because we are students we don't have much money so we spend, how do I say, safely, and like we save as much money as possible, and also we hire a very cheap hotel to stay for some nights, and it's good and I like the feeling to be myself, not depend on any others, people, something. And also, I think that backpackers, like, they are very , how do you say, adventurous. They like adventure, and they want to travel around and to, like, test life by their own and also, they want to like challenge themself. So I think it's good to be a backpacker. And you?
JM: Yeah, I think backpackers are pretty cool. I think they are very adventurous, and I've never actually done backpacking myself but that is how I would travel myself cause it's the cheapest way, and you probably get to see things that you don't normally see like the regular tourist tours, so yeah, I think backpacking is pretty good.
Phuong: Yeah, it's cool to be like a backpacker.

) Jonathan says you do not want to be ______ .


2) He says you need a alarm clock to ______ . 



3) He says you should carry ______ . 


4) You will need ________ clothes. 


5) He says you can pass the time with ______ . 


6) He says you need a pen to _______ . 



Hi, this is Jonathan from Canada, and I'm going to talk about six things that you should always have with you when you travel. Of course, you need to have your passport and any visas that are required for your travels. The last thing you want is to be stuck somewhere with no identification.
You'll need an alarm clock to make sure you wake up on time, to go and catch your flight or catch the bus. Sometimes you mightbe out late and you need to be sure you can wake up.
You'll need a bank card or credit card or something to access your money. You don't always want to carry around a lot of cash, so a bank card can be good.
You'll need at least one change of clothes. You certainly don't want to be walking around smelling bad and feeling uncomfortable. You can usually wash one pair of clothes, while you wear the other one.
You'll need for example a book pass the time while you're on a long bus ride or a long train ride or killing time somewhere. Or you could you use something like an MP3 player to listen to music.
And of course, you always need a pen. From the moment you arrive in a country, you'll need to fill out the immigration forms using your pen. You'll use it many times to write down the information when you need like directions, plus you can use your pen to write down the contact information of new friends you make so that you can stay in touch with them into the future.
