It’s gonna be a long journey

Kick-off

Look at a map of the world. Where do you think people living in the USA go on holiday? Write down
five options. Then listen to Sidney, Jacquelyn, Alex and Emily talking about where they’re going.

Sidney:But we do travel a lot. Like for example myself, Emily and Jacquelyn we’re going to Costa Rica this summer.
Jacquelyn:Mhm.
Sidney:We’re really excited about that. We’re taking a trip with our Spanish group, so … that’s gonna be a long journey. It takes three hours for us to even get to the airport we’re flying out of, but by the time we get there I think we’ll love it. [laughter]
Jacquelyn:It’s worth it.
Sidney:Yeah.
Alex:Yeah.
Emily:Didn’t you say that you were going to London this summer?
Alex:Yeah, I plan on going to London either this summer or next summer. Uh, and then over the winter I should be going to New York City. So enjoy the dropping of the ball … and Christmas and Rockefeller Square and all that.
Emily:That’s nice.
Sidney:That’s awesome. I know in college I wanna travel abroad, like especially study abroad. I hope to finish my uhm … studies in England. I wanna … get an internship at the BBC because I’m studying jour-, journalism and music so that’s one of my biggest hopes and dreams. I also wanna become like a journalist for the Rolling Stones magazine, so I’m hoping for that. So with that under my belt I hope I can grab a job, but … [laughter]
Emily:I think it would be really cool to go back to like where our ancestors are from. Because most Americans have like people travelling from other countries. So I personally, I’m Italian, so I’d like to go to Italy and experience like the old culture because it – In … America there’s not much like history like, granted we have a lot, but it’s really cool how … uhm, far you can go back in European countries and like …
Sidney:Traditions …
Emily:Yeah. It’s something that we don’t have and it’s really intriguing to us.
Alex:Yeah.
Jacquelyn:Mhm.
Sidney:One thing that’s cool about having all of our foreign exchange students and just different aspects of the world are the accents. Cause moving from state to state, for me you definitely see a diversity in how people speak, and it’s just so bizarre some of the words that people say, you’re just like “What does that mean?” But you get used to it after a while, but you just have to catch on pretty quickly.
Jacquelyn:Mhm.
Alex:Yeah.
Emily:Yeah, it’s unique how even in America we have different accents from –
Sidney:For sure.
Emily:– Southern accents, and then you can get like the Boston accents and then like …
Sidney:… get the coffee, with dogs … [laughter] …
Emily:… and then like the middle east, and then you’ll have like the laid back west coast so ... There’s a lot of different accents.
Alex:Gnarly, dude.
Sidney:Gnarly.
