你愿意住房车吗? Are you willing to live in an RV?

V tomto podcaste vás zoberiem na emotívnu cestu medzi dvoma krajinami. Môj bratranec Richard so svojou manželkou Mirkou zdieľajú svoj fascinujúci životný príbeh o odchode do Írska, kde si počas trinástich rokov vybudovali nový domov a vychovali deti.

V tomto rozhovore sa dozviete:

- Aké boli ich začiatky v cudzej krajine a s akými najväčšími prekážkami bojovali.
- Ako prebiehal proces učenia sa jazyka a adaptácie na úplne inú kultúru.
- Čo ich po trinástich rokoch viedlo k zásadnému rozhodnutiu vrátiť sa späť na Slovensko.
- Či je návrat domov po takej dlhej dobe jednoduchší ako samotný odchod do zahraničia.

Toto video je plné úprimných skúseností o kultúrnom šoku, rodinných putách a o tom, čo to dnes vlastne znamená „cítiť sa doma“.

💡 Pre študentov slovenčiny:
Rozhovor je vedený prirodzenou slovenčinou, vďaka čomu je ideálnym materiálom na trénovanie počúvania s porozumením a rozširovanie slovnej zásoby o témy sťahovania, práce a rodinného života.
