A podcast where I speak in slower and clearly spoken Swedish. Perfect practice for listening comprehension, and since it’s storytelling it makes it that much easier to follow along and understand. ✨

هشت راه برای کند کردن روند پیری تا شش سال // Hasht rah baraye kond kardan-e ravan-e pirie ta shesh sal:

In this chapter divided in 2 parts I will relate an experience where I do "hitchhiking" but with a boat, that's why "barcostop" ( It's different to Autostop) . It is set in the "second summer" of 2020, in the famous Argentinian Patagonia, specifically in a town called "Villa La Angostura", a paradisiacal place. 

important locations to guide the listener :
Lago ( Lake ) 
Villa La Angostura ( Place located in the Patagonian Andes ) 
Bahía mansa ( Bahia mansa is a bay of villa la angostura.  )

*Please leave all your questions in your comments, even if they are basic, it can help you and the rest of the listeners. *

*B1/B2* Experiencia en Barco-Stop  1️⃣part  ( or boat hitchhiking expierence )

-PART 2️⃣ The story is told by a former airline employee and is set on December 31, 1987. A woman is late for her flight and stops a plane about to take off by kneeling in front of the captain. The complicity of this exchange of glances is the same that a hitchhiker has with the driver. The plane stops . Happy ending . *Ask in the comments what you need*

En este episodio especial de Hablemos de Salud, conmemoramos el 7 de abril, Día Mundial de la Salud, una fecha que celebra el aniversario de la fundación de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) en 1948. Bajo el título "6 claves de la salud pública para mejorar la salud del mundo", exploramos seis logros fundamentales impulsados por la OMS: la erradicación de enfermedades, la vacunación masiva, el acceso a agua potable y saneamiento, la respuesta a emergencias sanitarias, la promoción de estilos de vida saludables y la cobertura sanitaria universal.

Con un lenguaje claro, ameno y pensado para quienes están aprendiendo español, este episodio invita a reflexionar sobre cómo la salud pública transforma vidas y qué podemos hacer para contribuir desde nuestro entorno.

¡Hablemos de salud!

So when I was deciding which topic to focus on for our second episode I really only needed to look at what the people I work with are actually asking for. One of the most common topics that I discuss with people is presentations. Presentations can be great opportunities to use those English skills that you work so hard on, but they also have their own stresses and challenges. Today we’re going to look at some vocabulary that you might hear when watching a presentation and some that you might want to use when giving your own. At the end we also have our 'big discussion question' to help you with your speaking practice. You can find the vocabulary from this podcast in the vocabulary sets on my profile. I hope you enjoy today's podcast and I look forward to meeting you on a call very soon!
