[00:01.13] Todd: Hey, Meg. We are talking about traveling and visiting other countries. What countries have you traveled to?

[00:07.13] Meg: I've been to quite a few different countries, for example, Spain, Belize and Indonesia.

[00:14.63] Todd: Wow, three different continents.

[00:16.63] Meg: Yeah, pretty far apart.

[00:17.88] Todd: Wow, that's cool. So Spain, that must be a really nice country. What did you think of Spain?

[00:24.38] Meg: Spain is really beautiful. There's a lot of beautiful nature and also some nice cities.

[00:31.88] While I was there, I lived in a small city called Caceres.

[00:36.14] Todd: Oh nice. Are the people really friendly in Spain?

[00:39.88] Meg: Yes. Actually, the people are very friendly and very helpful, especially if you're lost.

[00:45.88] Todd: Oh, that's great. I hear Spanish food is really, really good.

[00:49.64] Meg: Spanish food is delicious.

[00:51.89] I lived with a Spanish family and my Spanish mom cooked delicious meals every day for lunch.

[00:58.63] In Spain, seafood is really popular, so I ate a lot of fish and shrimp.

[01:03.38] Todd: Oh, I love fish and shrimp.

[01:04.88] Meg: Me too.

[01:05.88] Todd: Now, Spain is really warm, right?

[01:09.39] Meg: Yes. Spain was very hot while I was there during the summer.

[01:14.38] Todd: Oh yeah? How hot? How hot does it get?

[01:19.13] Meg: It got up past 40 Degrees Celsius during the summer.

[01:20.88] Todd: Wow.

[01:21.88] Meg: Yeah. It was pretty hot.

[01:24.63] Todd: Does it rain?

[01:25.38] Meg: It does rain. But when I was there in the summer, it didn't rain very often.

[01:30.13] Todd: So what about Belize? Belize is a really small country.

[01:33.63] Meg: Belize is very small, but it's also hot similar to Spain in the summer.

[01:38.89] Todd: Why did you go to Belize?

[01:40.88] Meg: I went to Belize on a study trip for school, and I stayed there for about two weeks.

[01:47.38] Todd: Okay. Now, does Belize have good food?

[01:50.63] Meg: Belize also has good food. There was a family that cooked for us, and we had a lot of delicious almost Mexican type food.

[02:00.13] Todd: Oh really? So for example, what do you eat? Like, what do people eat in Belize?

[02:05.13] Meg: People eat – it's kind of like a taco but flat with a tortilla, and some meat and vegetables on top and some spices that make it really delicious.

[02:17.63] Todd: So the last country is Indonesia. When did you go to Indonesia?

[02:25.13] Meg: I actually went to Indonesia just last year.

[02:25.63] Todd: Oh wow. How long did you stay?

[02:30.64] Meg: I only stayed there for about a week.

[02:31.13] Todd: Oh yeah? Oh, short trip.

[02:32.38] Meg: Yeah, it was a short trip, but I was just visiting some friends there.

[02:35.88] Todd: Where did you go?

[02:36.88] Meg: I went to Jakarta and Bali.

[02:39.13] Todd: Oh, okay. So I hear Bali has really beautiful beaches. Is it true?

[02:44.13] Meg: Yeah, it's true. There are a lot of famous and beautiful beaches in Bali.

[02:48.63] Todd: Oh, did you surf in Bali?

[02:51.13] Meg: I've never surfed before. Usually, when I went to the beach, I just wanted to put my feet in the water.

[02:57.13] Todd: Oh yeah. Now, Bali also has very famous scenery on the inside like the rice fields. Did you see the rice fields of Bali?

[03:06.63] Meg: No, I didn't see the rice fields. But I did go to some famous historical spots.

[03:13.13] Todd: So of the three countries – Spain, Belize and Indonesia – what country was your favorite?

[03:19.88] Meg: Maybe Spain was my favorite because I love learning language, and it was really nice to stay with my Spanish family.

[03:26.90] Todd: Yeah. I could see that. I really want to go to Spain, and I hope to go soon.

[03:31.13] Meg: I hope you can go too. It's beautiful.
