Hi. My name is Mike and I'm from Canada. And this is for. The topic today is what do you do to stay thin?That's a funny question for me because I don't try and stay thin. In fact, I have a super-fast metabolism, so no matter how much I eat, no matter how many times a day I eat, I don't gain any weight. Lately, I've been on a workout program where I go to the gym as much as I can, and I eat as many times a day, and as much as I can to try and get as much food in me as possible, but the key is just not to eat as much as you can, but while you're keeping up on eating as much as you can, you have to be going to the gym on a regular basis, so that the weight that you gain, is gonna be muscle weight and not fat weight, but the thing is at the same time as eating a healthy diet, you have to take the right supplements, and especially during the summertime, it's important to drink a lot of water, so for me, the biggest challenge is drinking plenty of water a day.

Hi, my name is Erina from Japan, and this is for. Today's topic is do you eat much fast food?Well, I was raised in a family that was very strict with what I eat so I wasn't really allowed to eat fast food and my parents always cooked for me, and I was very fortunate that my parents cooked for me all the time, like in the breakfast, for example, we would eat fish, rice, lots of vegetables and miso soup, and a very healthy diet, and as I grew older, I was hanging out with friends, and obviously, you know, people would go to fast-food restaurants and I would go there and, yeah, I enjoyed it, but I didn't really like it, and now because of the diet I followed for such a long time, I don't crave fast food.

Hi, my name is Mike. I'm from Canada and I'm here from. The question today is what languages are spoken where you live?Well, I'm from Canada so obviously English and the second national language is French, although I don't come from the East Coast. I come from the other coast, the West Coast and there's not much French spoken on the West Coast. Basically, Quebec Province is the only Province in Canada that's French-speaking. Other than that there are scattered parts in Canada where people speak French, but for the most part on the West Coast besides school, which everyone is required to take French in school up until at least the age of fifteen. I took French up until I was fifteen and then I started taking Japanese because I was a little tired of French, so besides English and French those are the only two languages, and I'm sticking with English and Japanese.

Hi, my name is Erina and I'm from Japan. This is for. Today's topic is what would you want to see in China?Well, that is a very good question because I'm Japanese and I live in Japan right now and China is such a close country but I’ve never been there which is very crazy. I have a lot of Chinese friends and we cook together and then they cook Chinese food which are very amazing, which are very I love, so I would love to go to China and go to the restaurants to see what the actual Chinese food is, because in Japan there are a lot of Chinese food restaurants, but my friends say they're not the same. The second thing I want to do in China is going and visiting the temples. I'm Buddhist and I love going to temples in Japan so I would want to go to China and see how different they are in China.

Hi, my name is Mike. I'm from Canada and this is for. Today's topic is do young people in your country have to serve in the army.Well, I'm from Canada and people don't have to serve in the unlike countries like Singapore or for example Korea, where it is mandatory to serve for a certain period of time, for example, two years. In Canada it's optional, and the next thing that you might ask is which is better? Should you have a mandatory army or should you have where it is an optional service. I think both ways could be good. Having a mandatory service definitely instills some discipline in you and it's nice to see that discipline in a certain people from a certain country, whereas from people from a country that don't have to go the army, you can see there is a bit of a relaxation with them, which could also be looked at as a positive note, so who knows if it's better to go to the army or not, but I like having the choice myself.

And when I went, I had a feeling of being somewhere in the past. It's very interesting. I biked all throughout the temples. I saw the sunrise. I saw the sunset from the temples. It is beautiful.What about you? Have you ever been to any ruins?

Hello. My name is Katia and I'm from Mexico. This video is for. And the question today is ... when you travel, do you travel light?Well, here's my answer: the last trip I took, well, let's see, it was very light. Actually, it was for one month, and I only took maybe about seven pieces of clothes and this is what happens, I get everything out of the closet, and I say I'm going to take this, this, this, this. Put everything in the luggage and then I realize it's very heavy, so then I start taking things out and I don't need this and I don't need that. Then, by the end, I realize, I do really like to travel light. There's nothing worse to being in a new place, carrying a bunch of heavy things.What about you? Do you like to travel light?

Hello. My name is Katia and this video is for. The question for today is have you ever had to adjust to a hot climate?Well, actually, I had to once, even though I never adjusted. It was very hot. I lived in Las Vegas, Nevada. Close to Las Vegas, there's the Death Valley. It's called Death Valley because nothing lives there. It's very hot. I even remember once, it was around twelve a.m. at night - no sun - and it was about a hundred degrees Fahrenheit - very hot. They even say If you drop an egg on the concrete, it will actually cook.What about you? Have you ever had to adjust to a hot climate?

Hello, everyone, this is Buddhini. I'm from Sri Lanka. The question today is where do you find the most beautiful beaches?Well, my country's a very small island and we're surrounded by many beautiful beaches, so I would say that Sri Lanka has the most beautiful beaches. Anyways, unfortunately, I do not have experience with many other countries, but I think Sri Lanka has the most beautiful beaches because they are very clean, very transparent water, beautiful white sand, and so many seashells and the most beautiful thing about it is when you walk around the feeling you get is amazing.What do you guys think? Have you visited Sri Lanka or anywhere else that you think has very beautiful beaches?

Hello! This is Tea from Vietnam, and this is for. Ok, our topic today is: Why do boys prefer video games than girls?Well, in my opinion, I don't think that this is a matter of preference. Because many video games, they are made, they are supposed to be for boys. Actually, I know a lot of girls who are hooked to video games. And once they are hooked, they are even bigger and crazier fans than boys. So if only video games makers make more games for girls, and market them, advertise them to girls, that can be a great idea of business.How about you? What is your opinion?

Hello, this is Paul. I'm from England. Today I'm speaking for. The question today is: Are video games too violent?I think this is a very important, difficult question to answer. My answer would be Yeah, I think a lot of video games are, nowadays are a little bit too violent. But actually, I think mainly it's the responsibility of the parents to decide whether the child should be allowed to play these video games. I think if, if the parents are good parents, and they limit the time the child play on the game, I think often it's Ok for the children to play the video game. But if, if they leave the child play the video game for 10 hours a day, then I think this gonna affect the child in a negative way. So that would be my answer.How about you? What do you think?

Hello everyone. This is Bhuddhini for. I'm from Sri Lanka, and our topic today is text messages and grammar. Do you think that text messages have a bad influence on grammar and language?Well, I don't personally think so because you cannot blame text messages for your language inefficiency right? I mean, well, you might tend to use the shortened forms of words and language in serious work as well, but you should be careful about it and you cannot blame text messages for that. That's what I think.What do you think? Do you agree with me?

My question is: Is hunting popular where you live?Well, I lived in Tehran, the capital city of Iran, and hunting is not that popular although me and my father, I love hunting. Ten years ago, or more than that, when I was young in mid-school, we were going out hunting out to the desert, a little far from the city, you go to the desert and there are some birds that cannot fly for long distances and we were hunting those birds, shooting them with a shotgun.

This vacation, we went to the beaches of Nha Trang in the South of Vietnam, and my boyfriend and I were among the only people to be sunbathing at the height of noon.

You must have different ideas. How about your country?

Hello, I'm Amir from Iran and I'm speaking for. My question is what is something you wish you could do?All of us in our childhood, we wish we could do something. I personally watched so many science fiction movies, and what I like to do is to actually move things without touching them, just concentrating, looking at them, and then make them move the way I like, so when I was a child I thought I had this ability. Well, I was a child and never that happened although I really practiced developing that type of ability I thought people can have. Yeah, that was about me.How about you?

Hello everyone. This is Buddhini for. I'm from Sri Lanka. We're gonna talk about if you always procrastinate, meaning if you always wait until the last moment to do everything.Well, the ideal question for me because - yes - unfortunately I do wait for the last moment to do many things but in a way, I think it's good because some people are very productive at the last moment and they end up doing a good job. I'm talking about reports and exams and all that but, well, it's best to do not stay for the last moment because in case you feel that you need more time to be perfect, yeah, it might be a problem. Anyways, the advice

Hi, my name is Paul. I’m speaking for. I’m from England. Today’s question is are English people different from Australian people?I think England and Australia, they have a, a lot of connections, and a lot of similarities. Because of this, the people are quite similar, obviously. We both speak English. And we have a lot of cultural things that are the same. Maybe the biggest difference between the two countries is the weather. In Australia, they have a lot of sunny weather, a lot of nice beaches. I think because of this, the people are often friendlier, and more upbeat than English people. I would say this is the biggest difference.What do you think?

Hello, I'm Amir from Iran and I'm speaking for. My question is how often do you work out?Well, I'm a Master's student. I'm a graduate school student and I need to write my thesis. All-day, I'm in front of the computer working on my thesis. It's a very exhausting job. My shoulders, my neck, my back hurts sitting in front of the screen all the time so every day, at the morning, I decided to go to the gym and exercise and that's really helping me to refresh my mind and go back to my studies. It's really helping me to live a healthy life.How about you?

Hello, this is Fred from Canada for. Adventure! Adventure! I love adventure! I, if I could, I would take different kinds of adventure every day!But if I were to choose the biggest adventure that I’ve taken in my life, I would say that it was during this one, a skiing trip, this one, skiing adventure. So when I was, maybe 16 years old, we went to Switzerland, and then we skied on the glaciers over there, and so with some friends who decided to put our money together, and er…rent a helicopter, and then go into the work you call the snowball, and so when we went there, the helicopter drops us on top of the mountain. And then there was nothing, there was nobody, and so we were skiing there, and on the fresh powder, I’ve never touched before. We had some powder up to our shoulders almost, you know, and it was really… It was worth it. Every second of it! It was one of the most amazing adventures of my life. One of the craziest also!What kind of crazy adventure do you have?

Hello, everyone! This is Tea from Vietnam, and this is for. Our topic today is very interesting! That’s, what is an adventure you’d like to take?Well, if you ask me, to be honest, I’m not a very adventurous person. So, the kind of adventure I’d like to take is an organized adventure. For example, I would love to take an adventure to discover the Mekong Delta. You know, to know how people are making a living there. And see how they are producing their daily… you know, products. agriculture products, for example. And, to try all the local foods! They must be gorgeous. So to be part of the scenario around me! So, that’s the kind of adventure I’d like to take.How about you? There must be much more adventurous people out there, more than me!So, what kind of adventure you’d like to take? Would you tell me?

Hello! I'm Amir from Iran and I'm speaking for. My question is do you like an adventure where you travel?Well, I see myself as a person that likes adventure. I even like to make people laugh all the time when I'm speaking to them so that's how it is. I like people to always have fun, like myself to have excitement. When I go far distances by car, I sometimes, to entertain myself, I speed up and I drive fast. When I get there, I look for the places that I am not familiar with, so there I can actually discover new things and know something more about myself even handling some unpredictable happenings, and that's I guess how life is once you have an adventurous spirit.Thank you.

Hello everybody. This is Buddhini for. I'm from Sri Lanka, and today the topic is do you think that everything happens for a reason?In my opinion - yes -everything happens for a reason and I think that every circumstance that you have to face, everything that happens in your life, is for a reason, and it is to teach you a lesson and it is kind of like preparing you for the future, in case you were wrong there. Maybe you can remember the lesson and you can not repeat the mistakes in your future.What do you think? Do you think that everything happens for a reason?

Hello, this is Fred from Canada for. My routine has changed a lot over the past year.Actually, it changes all the time, every day! Do I really have a routine? Mm, not so sure! Someday I wake up early, someday I wake up late. It depends. But, I would say, mostly, if my work changes, then there is a big change in my routine. So if I get a job, then, perhaps depending on whether I work in the morning, or night, then the routine really changes.So, does your routine change often? Do you have the same routine every day?

Hi, this is Paul. I’m from England. I’m speaking today for. Have I ever been in an accident?Well, that’s, maybe not a very nice question. Have I ever been in an accident? Let me think. Yea, there was one time when I was on a motorbike, and I was in Thailand. And I was driving down the road, not very fast. But the road was very, very bumpy. And I actually hit a small rock that was in the middle of the road. And I lost control of the bike. And I, I fell off the bike. And, erm, yeah, I cut my arm. I was very lucky, because I was not wearing a helmet. So, I was quite young and a little bit crazy. But, luckily, I was OK, so that’s my story.How about you? Have you ever been in an accident?

Hello, this is Paul. I’m speaking for. I’m from England. Erm, the question today is country or city? Where would you rather live?Myself, I do like the city. I think there’s, there’s a lot of things you can do in the city. A lot of fun! You can go out. You can party, er, you can go bowling. You can go to a lot of nice restaurants. But actually I think I would prefer to live in the country. Because I really like to wake up every morning, with the fresh air, and to listen to the sound of the birds’ singing! So I think my answer to the question is I would prefer to live in the countryside.How about you?

Hello, I'm Amir from Iran and I'm speaking for. My question is are the people in your city friendly?Well, I can't be generalizing it but the people in my city, Tehran - the capital city of Iran, but I somehow see them as very friendly people because they can communicate with total strangers very easily. In public transportation, like bus, trains, subways in Iran, I see this total stranger come sit next to me and then he start talking about his personal problems, difficulties he went through, or happiest moment in his life because actually, Iranians are very people who are very talkative and at the same time cannot keep quiet much I believe. I see them a little close to Italians. We are talkative people, so they are very much friendly in that sense in public spirit.Thank you.

Hello, this is Fred from Canada for. Living on a tropical island?That’s what I always dream of. That’s, that’s my… That’s paradise for me!

And if I were to choose, mm… Where would I go on a tropical island? Somewhere where there’s nobody. I’ll be alone. That would be great, you know. I, and…Maybe somewhere in the Asia Pacific!If you were to decide where you would live on a tropical island, where would that be?

Hello, this is Paul from England. I’m speaking for. What’s my pet peeve when shopping?I really like shopping, especially I like shopping for clothes. The thing I don’t like about shopping is when I’m, I’m trying to walk around and go into the different shops but the city or the shopping center is very, very busy, this really, this really starts to annoy me after a while and I, erm, I start to feel really, really tired by the end of the day.And that’s my pet peeve about shopping, OK, how about you?

Hello. My name is Hoa. I'm from Vietnam. Now, I'm speaking to and today's question is how often do you go shopping?Well, I think for girls, they do like shopping a lot, and me too, so I shop ... I go shopping I think every two weeks and I love shopping for clothes, for cosmetics and I often go to the supermarket ... not supermarket .. department store, and I usually go with my friends, and I think it takes me around like two - no - more than two hours a day. Whenever I go shopping, it takes me a lot of time, and that's why it takes a lot of money too, so in order to go, I mean, in order to satisfy my shopping habit, I think I need to work a lot, a lot, and well however, I do not like shopping for men's stuff. I mean, sometimes I have to shop for my boyfriend's gift, present, birthday present, or something, and I really hate to do that cause I don't really get what boys want, so please give me some advice if you know how to shop for guys, I'd really, really appreciate it.So, how about you?

Hello, I'm Hristo from Bulgaria, and the question is what is a wedding like in your country?Wedding in Bulgaria is pretty similar to a Western wedding, but we still have some traditional features to it, and one of the features is the religious part, which takes place in a church, and one really interesting thing is that the bride and the groom are supposed to walk around the altar, following a priest, and exchange crowns, which are symbols of power and unity at the same time. Another interesting thing is that a great deal of people, the whole family is usually present in the church, and of course everything is followed by a huge party in a restaurant or a discotheque.

Hi, I'm Aray from Kazakhstan. So, my question is describe a traditional wedding in your country?I myself like wedding ceremony very much. Wedding party in Kazakhstan lasts for two days.

Hello, my name is Mike, from Canada, and this is for. The question is do you make New Year's resolutions?Well, to be perfectly honest, I only make New Year's resolutions when I know that I can keep them for sure, because if I make a New Year's resolution that I don't think I will live up to, I definitely won't make that resolution, because I don't want to be a person that breaks the resolutions he made for the New Year. That's not a very good way to start the New Year. So yes, when I do have a goal that I know I will stick to, I announce it that I will make this New Year's resolution, and I stick to that, and aside from that I just keep my mouth shut and have a good New Year's.

Hello, I'm Hristo from Bulgaria, and the question is do you like to set goals for yourself?My answer is, actually, no. I don't like setting to specific goals because usually my plans change pretty often, and things often don't work the way I would like them to do. But, I know generally where I'm going and what do I want to do, which is perfectly fine. I like improvising, and that makes my life more interesting.

Hi, my name is Mike, from Canada, and this is for. The question is how have you changed in the last twelve months?Well, for me, I'm still the same person, but I have made a lot of changes in my life, and the biggest change perhaps is getting engaged to my girlfriend. Now, that doesn't actually change our relationship, we still have the same loving relationship we always did, but now we have a title of engagement. It's exciting, and I can't believe that it's the next step to life, but it's definitely the biggest change that has happened to me in the next, in the last twelve months.
