Benvenuto in questa prima puntata del mio nuovo podcast, qui voglio parlarti di uno dei Paesi più belli al mondo: l’Italia. Ci sono centinaia di guide sui viaggi in Italia ma la maggior parte parlano sempre degli stessi luoghi e non approfondiscono mai i luoghi veramente caratteristici, io tenterò di farti conoscere ogni angolo delle città che ti racconterò. La prima è dedicata alla mia città e a tutti i suoi monumenti, luoghi artistici e d'intrattenimento che ti offre, e sono davvero tanti!!

Podcast per tutti i gusti!

Cosa vedere a Roma, parte 1

¡Hola!  Welcome to Español from Zero, a podcast for people who are just starting the amazing journey that is learning Spanish.

Today’s practice is focused on the verb Llamarse (to be called). Basically the verb that we use to talk about people’s names.

The exercise is really short and simple! Your job is to find the mistakes in these sentences (only one of them is correct):

Yo llamo Rafael 
Nosotros nos llamos Pedro y Juan 
Ella se llaman Claudia
Tú te llamas Lucas
Ellos se llama Ana y Sebastián

Let's practice the verb Llamarse (to be called) 

In this story, a deer named Macey plans a secret party with her sister. But what happens when two big cats try to stop her? This is Part 3 of 5.  

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Two huge, strong and dirty cats appear out of nowhere: one proud lion and one sneaky cheetah. They creep forward, saliva dripping from the sides of their mouths. 

The lion says, “Little deer, I don’t usually eat noodles, but I might have to today.” 

The cheetah laughs and laughs and laughs. She has never heard anything so funny in her entire life. 

Macey looks confused, but then notices she has noodles stuck on her horns. She feels embarrassed and angry at the same time. 

“If you must know, there were no chopsticks…” says Macey. 

The cheetah says, still laughing, “Did you get it, little dear? We don’t eat noodles; we’re carnivores… but you have noodles on your head and we’re going to eat you.” 

The lion frowns and looks at the cheetah. “Yes, thank you, Cheetah... That was my point…” 

Macey confidently steps forward and prepares to fight. She looks like a kung-fu master. She says, “I’m not scared of you. You will never eat me… or my noodles!” 

Macey then jumps high into the air and does a flying kick! 

Hiiiiiyyyaaaaaa! 

Macey kicks the lion right in his big face. Saliva explodes from his mouth. The lion hits the floor HARD. The cheetah is so scared that she crouches down and starts purring. The cheetah doesn’t want to get hurt. 

The lion is very weak. He gets up and tries to speak, but he’s in so much pain. He says, “ahh…I… my face… you’re so… powerful… Please don’t hurt me anymore…” 

Macey has fire in her eyes. She is tired of big cats trying to eat her. 

“You carnivores think you’re so strong,” says Macey, looking like she will crush them. “But you’re not! Now get out of here!” 

The two cats, not so big anymore, run away. 

With the setting sun behind her, Macey is standing strong, looking like a hero.

Another part 2 topic for the Summer. I also have part 3 example answers on my website.


“Well, as I live in a very busy city, I sometimes really need to escape the noise, and crowds, as well as finding a place where I can just chill out and relax in peace.  My favourite place to go is a small cafe which is about 3 kilometres from my home, and only takes me about 10 minutes to get to on my motorbike. The cafe is located in the suburbs on an extremely beautiful lake, surrounded by many different kinds of trees, and is a world apart from the busy city centre.

 

I try to go there at least 3 or 4 times a week, and usually bring my laptop with me, as I find I can be very productive in this peaceful environment, and get lots of work done, in a short space of time. I love being able to sit at a quiet table outside on a perfect sunny day, with the many trees to shade me from the hot sun. I’m also able to sit right on the bank of the lake, with a view which is out of this world.

 

I guess the main reason I love to go to this place is because it’s just so quiet and peaceful, and I can get away from all the noise, as well as the hustle and bustle of the city centre, which sometimes drives me crazy. Another reason I like to go to this place is that I find the tranquil environment really, both inspires and motivates me in my work….. And I’m able to be much more productive than I would be if sitting in a noisy office or a busy city centre coffee shop. So…yea, this is a quiet place i love to go to.
