En este episodio quiero explicar por qué hablamos tan diferente en cada país de Latinoamérica? Cómo un sólo idioma puede variar tanto? Bueno, hay motivos socio-antropológicos e históricos que explican este fenómeno. 
I want to explain why we speak so differently in each Latin American country. How can a single language vary so much? Well, there are socio-anthropological and historical reasons that explain this phenomenon.

Acing a job interview goes beyond showcasing your skills and experience. It's about persuasion – convincing the interviewer you're the perfect fit. Here are three key techniques to transform your interview from good to great:

1. The Power of Storytelling: Facts and figures are important, but stories resonate. Weave a compelling narrative about a time you faced a challenge in a previous role.  Describe your thought process, actions taken, and the positive outcome. This not only highlights your skills but also demonstrates your problem-solving abilities and impact.

2. The "Why" Factor:  Don't just explain what you can do; connect it to the company's mission. Research the company's values and goals. During your interview, explain why their vision aligns with your own aspirations. This showcases your genuine interest and how you'd contribute to their success.

3. Anticipation is Key:  Prepare for their questions, but also anticipate potential objections about your experience or qualifications.  For example, if you lack direct experience in a specific area, highlight transferable skills or relevant coursework.  Have data or references ready to back up your claims, demonstrating your initiative and preparedness.

By mastering these techniques, you'll move from simply answering questions to shaping the narrative of the interview. You'll showcase your passion, problem-solving skills, and alignment with the company, ultimately persuading them that you're the ideal candidate for the job. Remember, a successful interview is a two-way street. Let your enthusiasm and persuasive communication shine through, and you'll be well on your way to landing your dream job.

Episode #56 - Searching for housing in Sweden

8_Plastik – SEGEN ODER FLUCH?

(A)  In den 60er Jahren hielt Plastik Einzug in den Alltag der Menschen. Hatte man eine Tragetasche aus Plastik ergattert, war man glücklich. Sie war HALTBAR, leicht, wasserdicht und man bekam sie – es war einfach unglaublich – kostenlos im Supermarkt. 
(B)   In den 80er Jahren begann sich das öffentliche Bewusstsein zu ändern. Plötzlich HIESS ES, dass Plastik ein GEFÄHRLICHES Umweltproblem darstellte. Die Menschen begannen sich zu fragen, was eigentlich mit dem leeren Joghurtbecher passierte, nachdem man ihn in die Mülltonne geworfen hatte. 
(C)   Heute wissen wir, dass Plastik BEI ALLER NÜTZLICHKEIT ein problematisches Material ist. Verbrennen wir es, erzeugen wir GIFTIGE Dämpfe. Werfen wir es auf die Müllhalde, dann liegt es dort Hunderte von Jahren bis es zerfällt. Es kann auch im Ozean enden, wo Meerestiere es verschlucken und QUALVOLL daran sterben. Recycling ist auch eine Möglichkeit, allerdings ist das aufwendig und teuer.
(D)   Es existieren einige vielversprechende neue Methoden zur Lösung des Problems. Die beste Idee ist aber, Plastik nur dann zu verwenden, wenn man es wirklich braucht.
