みなさんはカフェに行くのが好きですか？
私はコーヒーを飲むのは好きじゃないんですが、カフェで作業したり、勉強したりすると気分転換になるのでよく利用します。私の家の近所には大学があるので学生が勉強や作業スペースとして使うことができる静かなカフェが数軒あります。値段も都内に比べて安いし、時間制限などもないのでゆっくり集中することができます。おまけにインターネットの速度も申し分ないです。

特に私のお気に入りのカフェは家から徒歩3分ぐらいのところにあるカフェで、水曜日と日曜日の定休日以外は毎日10時から19時までやっています。たくさん席があって作業している人が多いのでとても静かです。メニューも豊富で色々な飲み物があります。実はこのポッドキャストもカフェで書いています。今日は温かい抹茶ラテを注文しました。飲み物の他にパスタやパンケーキ、クッキーやケーキなどの軽食もあります。

みなさんのお気に入りのカフェがあればどんなカフェか教えてください。

Welcome English learners! Today we’re continuing the conversation between Jennifer and James. In the last episode, James had just met Jennifer while he was walking in the park. Her dog had fetched a ball and had come close to him. Jennifer was in the middle of telling him why she started dog sitting for her friend. Listen to the story in this episode to grow your vocabulary and listening skills. Enjoy!
“I was having coffee with my friend, Sarah, and we were talking about how difficult it is to live up to the standards of being a “modern woman.” Jennifer started her story.
“Oh, that sounds like an interesting conversation…” James responded. “I’ve always felt like it must be almost impossible for women to balance career and family. Especially single women.”
“Well, yeah, that’s what we were saying to each other. There’s a lot of pressure on women to be “independent,” as if they don’t need men in their lives. I think marriage and family are great and I hate the stigma that is sometimes given to housewives in our society.”
“That’s an interesting perspective to hear from a woman.” James replied. “You wouldn’t know that based on what you see in the media.”
“Exactly. Anyways, Sarah is married, so she and her husband are taking a trip this weekend. She works as an accountant, so she stays busy, but she wants to have kids, too. That’s why we were talking about “modern women.” Anyhow, I offered to watch their dog for the weekend, so here I am!” Jennifer explained.
“I see. That’s nice of you to do for her!” James appreciated this small act Jennifer was doing for her friend. He wanted to learn more about her, but she had a question for him.
“So, what brings you out to the park on a Saturday morning?” Jennifer inquired.
“I like to go for a walk when I’m thinking about something.” James told her.
“Ah, ok. So, can I ask what’s on your mind?” Sarah asked with an inquisitive look on her face. 
James was more than happy to tell her.
