she's just chewing something that she shouldn't be I know if you like dogsor not I have a staff you know yeah even thoughI had my headphones iam with noise County heard crunching I was like doesthat mean she's got something she shouldn't have so anyway it might justbe you

and I you know in the discussion today generally we have a couple ofstudents that will come on by now on when Wednesday night we just to give youa bit of information about enjoy ABC each night there's a few differentlessons and they're on different topics and on Wednesday evening

for meWednesday day for you this lesson is all in travel okay so we try and keep itbased conversation based on trouble we have a video that I will play that's adifferent video each week just randomly about some death a tourist destinationand then we'll discuss it but before we

do traveling is that something you'reinterested in actually I'm supposed to be in Japan right now this was last yearin December I flights to Japan to travel to Japan in Korea but tell me what didyou think of Japan very different from Spain okay how they they say not a

touchy-feelyculture I I used to live in Asia I used to live in Cambodia and I had quite afew Japanese friends that lived there as well and I found the same see inAustralia and in my family and culture I grew up in we all hug each other we saywe

see each other we give each other a hug I had friend Japanese friends I introverted culture especially toforeigners you need something even if they don't understand what they say whatyou are saying because I think that they yeah they're very hospitable people verykind very hospitable people yeah did you

see and you said you've traveled quite alot in Europe itself tell me what's wrong okay tell me what's your favoritecountry to visit outside of Spain not your own country traveling what's yourfavourite European country that you thinking Laureyyes okay why did you like hungry I don't know I think

that it was like in Spainbut some a lot of years ago like maybe 15 years ago did you go tothe Jews in Budapest you went to under Budapest yeah I've never been toBuddhist I had a friend who used to live in Budapest and after talking with him Iso

want to go on the visit this city it sounds amazinga beautiful place yeah I love travelling it's one that's I started troubling whenI was about 22 and for me it was like a drug once I too was addicted you know Ifelt like I had to do it all

the time and every two years I have to travelsomewhere save money for one year then travel extensively each so it's I thinkit's one of the best things we can do you know you know maybe it's not a goodlife choice for me because I'm 36 years old now and

I have friends who spend allmy money traveling yeah it's I think that one of the most amazing things thattraveling is experiencing different cultures like what you're saying aboutgoing to Japan it's so different right and to seeing different civilizationshow they live what do you like most about traveling in

different countriesnot only the people are really fun different cultures okay so this is coronavirus ticket toanywhere in the world it's not meant to happen for you so that would be yourdestination what if you could go anywhere in the world tomorrow sincethings that we can do now yeah we

would like to all today Antarctica why do theydo it you see because we saw you are in a boat with some desperationyou are like one more of the interpolation them so maybe yeah I heardabout this trip because I think this trip they leave from Tasmania I believefrom magic

because I believe there's also a research vessel that you could goon a research trip from Tasmania which goes down to Antarctica as well I'veread about doing one of these because I would love to do that as well that's one I read about the research trips I thinkthat would

just be amazing but yes you're right it's so expensiveyeah so the worst thing about traveling is how expensive it is right it's theit's the worst thing about traveling is it so expensive and maybe will becomemore expensive now went once the virus finishes because some airlines might notbe viable

anymore some may have gone bankrupt and so it troubling might bedifferent be nice after coronavirus yeah anyway in my I'm gonna play the videonow on Honolulu that you've already watched just good so we'll just watch ittogether and I show my screen and I'll play it and after it's

for a little bit you can say they are connected actually Hong Kong isbelongs to China but just before England China give it to England and thenEngland if it to China so Hong Kong is now belongs to cha China and it is footshopping if it was you a question

about a rich family somedayHong Kong is like fine about China you mean she's aged hi nice rich isthere more rich people more wealthy people in Hong Kong Western than inChina most of is richer but not the richestbecause it is using different policy to Hong Kong in China Hong

Kong is meanthat Hong Kong versus most of the major one is said Hong Kong people there andthe money don't need to give to the government and China is if you earn somemoney then you need to share some to every people in China go homeso Hong Kong people don't

need to give some money to government are all peopleso their money will be more and don't need to give government so there will bericher different communism isn't it what's the same they say same countrydifferent different different governments same country differentgovernment there's a saying I forget about this oneone

country and two different law one country two laws yes and until 2014seven and then after that we don't know when what will change like I don't knowis Hong Kong law change or belongs to China law no one said about this that'swhat all the protesting is about now isn't

until twenty still it's still along way off but I think 27 years more yeah that's rightyeah have you been into Asia at all before other than Japan have youtroubled to beat Japan yeah it's Hong Kong in such a beautiful city I reallylove such an exciting vibrant city and

one thing I Western one thing I loveabout Hong Kong is your food amazing food can you tell them where a littlebit about the food in Hong Kong Hong Kong it is their shit foot and also thefooty restaurant Hong Kong because it is good for Hong Kong and is

open to thewhole world and the people in power I'll also come to Hong Kong so it will havedifferent countries would like you will have Japan Korea China India ordifferent country foot and then Hong Kong is also open for people to travelso they Hong Kong open many supermarket and

Westin do you have any questionsyou'd like to you'd like to ask in my image from Spain do you have anyquestions you'd like to ask her she is from Spain Dani where is being a normal thing I'msitting that is for paratha that is between my different marsalano not kilometre

from our cinema 400 fromBarcelona yeah do you know much about Spain Weston laughing yes sirI know inside events to raise the cow the cow they raced the cow what's hetalking about in MA like the people go to do the cowright run with the Bulls run with the Bulls

cows run with the Bulls race thecows he restored the bullfighting bad weather we did a foolish thing but yeahI don't know if I could say more people there are the people that is again undercontrol there are people that is clean from that kind of people they are moreconscious

of the Wellness of the animals so is that running with the bulls isthat close to where you live or is that a different part of Spain I thoughtthey're running with the Bulls running with these feelings there are two famousmovies that they are from Pune they are called some

four minutes now they arethey small sum per minute that sooner okay explaining in Spain what is thegeneral consensus of public opinion when it comes to running with the Bulls what's the situation what's your personal opinion I thinkthat a society has evolution maybe in Sevilla unity not one not

able to happyyeah yeah yeah that's always been one of the crazythings I've thought about Spain is like that's it was in Australia it would beit creates such outrage it's always when I see it on TV they're running the wallsit seems so crazy people sing crazy I love how

Western you court raced thecows tasters and anything else in value you picked up men from the video oranything else you'd like to ask myself no because I just come to like just oneminute yeah I know did you come up with any more it always amazes me withtechnology that

I can talk to people all over the world like you're on one sideof the world Westen's in the middle between us different corners of the world is prettycool but yeah I think there's a lot ofsimilarities actually from especially where I live in in Queensland inAustralia to Spain it's

quite tropical quite a warm client a lot of Englishpeople come here as well because of the weather even though it's further away but yeah I think it's and when I went toBarcelona I thought the weather was very similarly thing the weather in thechoose from the same but the

kocho is so differentI found Barcelona is very famous for its seafood right Ruslan has wonderfulseafood in your city is there something that your city is famous for sweets thatwill break your teeth if you could go like anywhere after watching this videoand Weston you can answer this – after

watching this video what interests youmore a beach holiday like this you're going to Honolulu Hawaii having arelaxing Beach holiday or perhaps going to a city and having a culturalexperience in a different city where it's totally different to where you livewhat would you prefer go to Japan sushi how

about you in math when I Hey I'vegone on dates just I try a raw fish I in Australia we had this weird type ofsushi where because the Australians are the same wedon't do raw fish too well so we cook the fish and put it in sushi and I

lovethis the raw fish here I'm not that interested in but I was so excited totry raw fish in Japan because I think I think they probably do it better I washoping you did you try it when you enter Japan did you try the raw fishI'd say the Rockies
