Mitch: [0:24] Hello. Welcome to episode number... Isi: [0:27] 53. Mitch: [0:28] 53, well done. Isi: [0:30] Thank you. Mitch: [0:31] Of the Easy English Podcast. We are back in Brighton. Were we ever saying where we were before? When we made our Relationship Goals Podcast last time? Isi: [0:45] I'm not sure. Maybe we did. Maybe only in the Aftershow for the members. because our podcast always goes on a little bit for our members. If you want to join that and also listen to that and get a lot of other perks go to easyenglish.video/membership and join us that would be great but I think yeah we have only talked about it in the Aftershow so we have been to France. Mitch: [1:11] Yeah, and we thought today we could make an episode about our expectations and then the realities of France, from things we've heard, things we've kind of, presumed, and if we were right and wrong with our presumptions. Isi: [1:28] Okay, I have two things to say first. I say France and you say France. Mitch: [1:34] Oh, yeah. Isi: [1:34] What is right? Mitch: [1:36] You are doing a southern British English pronunciation of France. Isi: [1:44] France. Mitch: [1:45] Which sounds nice though. Isi: [1:46] It's more sophisticated. Mitch: [1:47] It does sound a lot smoother and a lot more, I don't know. It has a joie de vivre about it. Isi: [1:55] D'accord. God. And you say France, which is Northern English. Mitch: [2:02] France. And there's also, funnily enough, not funnily enough, by coincidence how American. Isi: [2:08] Northern British English, sorry. Mitch: [2:09] Yeah. Isi: [2:10] I said that. Mitch: [2:10] It's also how I think American English people would say it; France. Isi: [2:14] France. Mitch: [2:15] Not France. Isi: [2:16] France. And the second thing I wanted to say is it hasn't been our first time in in France we both have been... in the past years we've been, five times I think. Before that I have been a few times maybe but you have been a lot of times for holidays right? Mitch: [2:37] I've been very often but mostly was a holiday and was camping and it was not really feeling like you're settled into French life because those camping places are a bit, a culture mix and they're kind of, I don't think they represent French life, but this time we were in French towns, French villages. Isi: [2:58] And yeah, your parents live there, we have to say. Mitch: [3:00] And my parents are now living there. Isi: [3:02] It's more integrating in French lifestyle.
