People in Britain have a unique sense of humour. For lots of foreigners, it's difficult to understand and confusing. But British people are fiercely proud of their sense of humour, and the UK has produced some of the world's best comedies. In this episode, we take a look at what makes Brits laugh, and tell a few jokes along the way.

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 )

What is a winning mindset for a job interview?+

As someone who has interviewed hundreds of English teachers, I’ve seen firsthand the mindset patterns that set top performers apart.

Here are a few key traits of winners:

Growth Mindset: Winners see every interview, even those that don’t lead to a job offer, as an opportunity to learn and grow. They reflect on their performance, identify areas for improvement, and use feedback to enhance their skills.

Positive Self-Belief: Winners believe in their abilities and their potential to succeed. They approach interviews with confidence and a genuine enthusiasm for the opportunity.

Goal-Oriented: Winners have a clear understanding of their career goals and how the role aligns with their aspirations. They articulate their aspirations clearly and demonstrate how their skills and experience can contribute to the company’s success.

So, what exactly is a winning mindset?

It’s not about being perfect or always getting the job. It’s about embracing a set of attitudes and beliefs that empower you to overcome challenges and achieve your goals.

Listen to the recording and gain insights from someone who was the top performer for 54 consecutive months out of 1500-4000 English teachers!

You’ll uncover key strategies that can help you develop a winning mindset and ace your next interview.

To Your Success,
Anatoly

TRANSCRIPTION (explanation included)
These various expressions for negation span a spectrum of formality and tone. In the lexicon of everyday conversation, one might simply assert "no," "nope," or "nah," and even employ a touch of informality with "not gonna happen." When a matter is more absolute, phrases like "without a doubt, no" and "under no circumstances" make the position clear. In informal settings, a definitive refusal might take the form of "not a chance" or "ain't gonna happen," perhaps even with a touch of camaraderie, as in "nah, mate." For matters requiring decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "I'm afraid the answer is no" or "I must decline," while adding regret, as in "regrettably, no," imparts a sense of genuine consideration. Politeness tempers the refusal in phrases such as "I'm sorry, but no" and "thank you for considering me, but I'll have to say no," expressing gratitude for the offer. The witty turn of phrase adds a touch of humor to the refusal, suggesting impossibility with expressions like "I'd sooner sprout wings and fly" or "when pigs fly." In more elevated circles, the upper class might communicate their refusal with statements like "I regret to inform you that the answer is in the negative" or "it would not be fitting, I'm afraid," while maintaining an air of politeness. For royalty, a refusal is conveyed with grace and tact, as in "one must respectfully decline" or "I cannot acquiesce to that request," underscoring the formal nature of the response. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.
