Hi. My name is Mike. I'm from Canada and the question is are people safe drivers in my country? Well, it's tough to generalize for a whole country of people and although Canada only has thirty million people, that's a lot of people to generalize. So I have to say for the most part, people are quite safe drivers but you do sometimes run into people who are unsafe and, of course, you get people who get very angry on the road and they have some road rage. It's very understandable to be frustrated while driving, especially if you're driving under pressure and you're late but I have to say that road rage could be very dangerous and I would advise to steer away from that.

The question is ... what is your favorite season? My favorite season is summer because I don't have to wear a lot of clothes and I can move freely and it's not cold. It's not rainy, and everything is sunny and bright and I like the air in summer. It's so fresh, so warm and maybe another reason could be I was born in South Asia and I like the weather there. It's summer all the time.

Alex: So how do you feel about long distance relationships?
Maria: Not that good. I had two relationships by now and both of them ended after me going somewhere. First time I was in Denmark but like I lived on a school in another city and while I was there for four monPublicar postagemths like I think two months after I went home to him and broke up and then came back to the school and just didn't really care. And then the second time I went traveling and I missed him so much and I came back and realized that there was nothing left. I'd lost everything while I was away so I don't, after one month, after two months, I think it just doesn't work for me if it's not really special.
Alex: Yeah, I guess you're kind of like me. I have to see the person.
Maria: Exactly.
Alex: Almost, you know, daily.
Maria: Exactly and you can have conversations online and on the phone but if there's no, I don't know, it doesn't have to be much, just like be close, see each other in the eye.
Alex: It's a big difference, yeah. I did a month when I went home to Australia away...
Maria: This summer?
Alex: Yeah, this recent summer and like Skype is just not enough. Do you know what I mean? You can see the person, you can talk to them, you know you can kiss the camera if you want but it's not...
Maria: If you want.
Alex: You know it's not the same but that's not to say I don't think, some people can do it.
Maria: I figure if it's a very, like if the relationship is very, it's very passionate or you've been going on for a long time because both of my relationships were under one year I think. The first one was one year and the second one was half a year. So if we're used to staying together then I think you can work it out. I'm just too impatient.
Alex: Yeah, I guess under a year you haven't really learned to depend on the other person all the time.
Maria: Exactly.
Alex: Or...
Maria: Still going by the passion and if you can't see the person every day or like whenever you want, then the passion just slowly fades.
Alex: Yeah, agreed.
Maria: But this is your first relationship right?
Alex: Yes it is and I did one month when I went home away from the person and it was just...
Maria: And that was the first time you ever went away from the person?
Alex: Yeah and it was just aah horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible.
Maria: I remember the first time I like traveled while my boyfriend was still at home and it was a week and I was devastated so it's, if it's passionate it's...
Alex: Well I did Christmas away from them when I went to Christmas, I did India for Christmas last year.
Maria: OK.
Alex: And two weeks was bad enough and then a month and I was just pulling my hair out, do you know? So.
Maria: Yeah, it's hard.
Alex: It, yeah, it certainly is.
Maria: Yeah.

Hi, I'm Antoine from France, and I'm going to talk about six things you have do and see if you come to my country, and if you go to Southwest of France, to Basque country. So, first thing, I think is that you have to come during summer because there are a lot of activities in summer.

So first thing to do is like just going to the beach, just to chill, just to get a good tan. After that, you can learn how to surf because it's a really big sport, very famous sport in France, and it's quite funny to try to catch some waves and just be in the water, and that's quite good.

The third thing is there's a really big event in summer in my part of France in Bayonne. It is the name of the city. It's called the party of Bayonne, Fêtes de Bayonne. It's the fifth biggest party in the world. Like the first one is the Carnival of Rio. The second one is the Octoberfest in Germany, and during that party there is like almost two million people coming there, just to have some funny times, to party, to drink, and I think that's a really cool event.

After this, you can go to watch what we call the corridor. It's an entertaining events coming from Spain, but it's really famous in my part of France. It's a fight between a man and a bull, and at the end most of the time, the men kill the bulls and that's really typical, and I think you have to see it.

After you can listen to some Basque music, cause in Basque country we have our own language, so we have like very traditional songs and it's always I think interesting to discover new language and new music.

And finally, we also have traditional sports. It's called pelota basque. It's kind of a mix between tennis and squash, because you're playing in front of a big wall, and yeah, I think definitely have to see this because it's really, really famous in the Basque country.

 Rainy Day!
Nydja talks about what she like to do on a rainy day.
Hi, this is Nydja and I'm from the United States. I'd like to tell you about six things that I enjoy doing on a rainy day.One of the things I enjoy doing on a rainy day is reading. I like to read books on a rainy day because when it's gloomy outside, a good book can brighten my mood. One of my favorite books to read on a rainy day would be Jane Eyre.
One of the other things, I enjoy doing on a rainy day is going over to my friend's house or having them come over to my house, and we just go outside and sit on the porch. We talk about what's been going on in our lives and maybe have some hot tea or cocoa to warm us up.
Some of the other things that we do on a rainy day is we go out to the movies and sometimes we spend the entire day out there. We'll find two or three movies we really want to see, maybe long movies and just spend the who day at the theater.
Sometimes, when it's raining you don't want to go outside, so I tend to stay in and redecorate my house. Move all the furniture around. Rehang pictures that I haven't had up in awhile. Just change what's going on inside since I can't change the rain.
Sometimes because it's not too bad on the roads, I like to go for long drives on backroads that aren't too busy and just see the rain outside and to take in all the scenery.
The last thing that I enjoy doing on a rainy day would have to be baking a warm meal, maybe a cake or a roast. Something that would really warm up the house get rid of all the cold.

Hi. My name is Mike. I'm from Canada and the question is how often do you ride your bike? Well, I recently bought a new bike about three months ago and sadly enough I don't often ride my bike because I'm really busy with work. So I've only had a handful of times, maybe four or five times, where I've had a chance to ride my bike but the bike I bought is a road bike and it goes really fast on the road so I'm looking forward to riding more in the future.

HOW DID YOU MEET YOUR WIFE?
PRE INTERMEDIATES AND INTERMEDIATES

http://www.elllo.org/english/0551/597-Michael-Marriage.html 


Todd: Hey, Michael, I just met your wife. She's a really nice woman. Really friendly.
Mike: Yeah. yeah. We met a long time ago. We've been married a lot of years, now.
Todd: How did you meet actually?
Mike: Oh, gosh, we back when we were both students, at Arizona State University in Tempe Arizona, and I had volunteered to be one of the tour guides for new students, foreign students who just coming in for that school year, and it was the end of August, and it was very steamy, a very hot day, and I remember I met the students, there were maybe four or five of them at the Student Union for this walking orientation tour of the campus. It's a beautiful campus, by the way, and so, you know, I remember she was sitting on this bench and I went and, you know, she smiled at me and I smiled at her, and there was some kind of spark.
Todd: Yeah, yeah, like a connection.
Mike: There was a connection. There was a connection there, and I, you know, we went on this walking tour of the campus and when we were you done, you know, I kind of reluctantly, sort of said goodbye to her and the rest of the group, and you know, kind of said, see you around, and I think the next day even, she went found out who I was and where I worked and she dropped in my office.
Todd: Wow, that's pretty cool. That's pretty romantic.
Mike: It was very cool. Very romantic. You know the funny thing is, that particular bench, where we met, on our anniversary, 20th anniversary, we went back to the campus (no way) where we met and we took a picture of ourselves on the same bench because this is where we first met.
Todd: What a great story.
Mike: It was very cool to go back there.
Todd: So, in terms of your personality, how are you guys similar?
Mike: How are we similar? Oh, man, I think we're more different than anything. I think our biggest similarity is that we're both so different, in other words that we're both very tolerant (yeah) of people who are different and so we, you know we kind of get along. We have an understanding that's we're going to misunderstand each other most of the time.
Todd: Right, right.
Mike: But we sort of approach that with a kind of humor and flexibility so I think that's what makes our relationship work is that we got that kind of agreement.
Todd: So you think that's the key to any successful marriage?
Mike: Is not getting so upset at misunderstanding each other or kind of using misunderstanding as a way of getting to know each other. I think that is one of the keys.
Todd: That's nice. Thanks.
Mike: Sure.

HAVE YOU  RAISED AN ANIMAL

http://www.elllo.org/video/1101/V1108-Camp.htm


Hello, my name is Aiko, I'm from Japan and my question is have you raised an animal and my answer is yes. I have raised quite a few animals actually. I had a bird and hamster and dogs but my strongest memories with my pets are from my very young days. I merely kept insects and amphibians because when I was a child I suffered from asthma and I wasn't allowed to have any furry animals for quite a long time. I enjoyed observing the insects' habit. For example, whilst I kept quite a few crickets, one cricket loved watermelon. He didn't eat anything but watermelon and another one loved cabbage.
I was also into what I called categorization. I collected wood lice and then I separated females from males and another example is I collected tadpoles and I put the tadpoles with tails together. I really enjoyed my days with my small animals but my Mum certainly did not. One day I decorated my shoulders with caterpillars. They were really big, fat and colorful and beautiful but my Mum found this very gross and it made her scream.

Hey, my name is Daniel and I'm from Chile and the question is should children be allowed to use social media? Well, there's a whole dilemma and there's a whole debate about it and I get the point. I know it's very risky because you don't really know who is on the other side and, you know, it might seem, like to children it might seem like there's a very friendly person but at the end it might be something kind of tricky. So if you take that point, I mean kids shouldn't be allowed to use social media. But on the other hand, I think it's better if they do because it's not, the problem is not about social media itself. I think it's because the problem is about how parents raise their children and what values they teach to them so I think if children are raised properly with like strong values, there's no problem towards social media. I think social media is as risky or as good as any other thing that we have now so I should focus a bit more on how parents raise children.

 mom, my brother and sister. But when I am away then I use internet of course like Facebook. 


For example, like my brother and my sister they have Facebook accounts so I can actually send 


her, send them, messages any time. Well, to my grandparents or my uncle and aunts, I usually 


use Skype. It's actually very easy to call them to their phones and then for my mom she knows 


how to use a computer really well so I always email her and with my dad he actually likes to use 


the video to call me, to call me on my phone so we actually use Skype or Facetime all the time.

The first thing I'm going to talk about is my family using social media and, you know, I usually talk to my brother on Facebook or, you know, we'll post or tweet to each other just little things we're doing during the day. It's kind of more casual than email so it's kind of more relaxed. You don't feel the pressure of having to write in complete sentences and watching your grammar and I don't know what it is about the format that let's you sort of be a little more intimate with people than you would in say a formal, in a letter or email format. So, yeah, my family and I do use social media a lot like Facebook. My mother doesn't use it so much. I think older people are maybe more reluctant to share stuff on the internet but as for my brother and I, yeah, we always, we always use social media and we really like it. Thanks very much.
