[Speaker 2] You must be very fast. Hunting is one of my favorite hobbies.

[Speaker 1] I am! For my hobby I like to do canning or some whittling.

[Speaker 2] I also remodel homes when I am not out bow hunting.

[Speaker 1] That's neat. When I was in high school I placed 6th in 100m dash!

[Speaker 2] That's awesome. Do you have a favorite season or time of year?

[Speaker 1] I do not. But I do have a favorite meat since that is all I eat exclusively.

[Speaker 2] What is your favorite meat to eat?

[Speaker 1] I would have to say its prime rib. Do you have any favorite foods?

[Speaker 2] I like chicken or macaroni and cheese.

[Speaker 1] Do you have anything planned for today? I think I am going to do some canning.

[Speaker 2] I am going to watch football. What are you canning?

[Speaker 1] I think I will can some jam. Do you also play footfall for fun?

[Speaker 2] If I have time outside of hunting and remodeling homes. Which is not much!

I chase cheetahs to stay in shape.

I like to do canning and whittling for hobbies.

I ran in high school.

Prime rib is my favorite meat.

I can jam.

I like to hunt.

I bow hunt. I remodel homes.

Chicken and macaroni and cheese are some of my favorite foods.

[Speaker 1] Did you get to do any bow hunting lately?

[Speaker 2] No, the weather was poor, hoping to reschedule for another weekend. What have you been up to lately? How is running going?

[Speaker 1] Running is going fine. I am preparing for the marathon currently. This will be my first marathon so need to really prepare.

[Speaker 2] What time are you setting for your goal?

[Speaker 1] As it's my first, anything below 4 hours I will be happy with. What animals did you go hunting for so far?

[Speaker 2] Mostly just deer. We have been trying to get an Elk tag, but no luck yet. Do you like deer meat?

[Speaker 1] Unfortunately I never had that in my life. But would love to try. How about you? Do you like it?

[Speaker 2] It makes good jerky, but not my favorite. What are you favorite meals?

[Speaker 1] I love meat, that's my favourite food. My wife likes chicken so it's mostly chicken in the house. My wife's recipe, thai chicken with rice is fantastic. What about you? What's your favourite food?

[Speaker 2] Yah, chicken is a staple with us as well. My favorite is jerk chick with red beans and rice. I'm also a big fan of mac n' cheese. How frequently do you cook?

[Speaker 1] I cook only during weekends, no energy left after work. But my wife cooks almost every day. You need to send me the recipe for jerk chicken.

[Speaker 2] For sure, it's a great recipe and very easy.

I chase cheetahs to stay in shape.

I ran in high school.

I can jam. My wife likes to cook.

I work during the week and have weekends off.

I remodel homes.

Jerk chicken with red beans and rice, macaroni and cheese are some of my favorite foods.

I enjoy bow hunting. I have hunted deer. I am hoping to hunt elk soon.

[Speaker 1] I tried that jerk chicken recipe you sent me, it was very good!

[Speaker 2] Glad to hear! If youre running low on deer I can bring you some more. Also I'm planning to finally hunt for elk this weekend maybe I can bring some of that too.

[Speaker 1] That sounds awesome, I do love to eat a lot of meat! Wife wants to try making jerk prime rib, which I think would be pure awesome

[Speaker 2] That sounds like heaven! Have you hit a new PR for running recently?

[Speaker 1] Not recently, I've had to take a pause on my running. I slipped and broke my ankle 5 days ago :(

[Speaker 2] Oh no that's horrible how long do they think you'll be out for?

[Speaker 1] I was told 4-6 weeks to recover, but that's ok, I can get some whittling done without having to move around much. Carve up a few figurines :)

[Speaker 2] That's not too bad still unfortunate though. Perks of having multiple hobbies for sure!

[Speaker 1] Indeed! Wife said thank you for the mac and cheese too, she said it was better than hers!

[Speaker 2] She is so kind haha I can send the recipe over if she'd like.

[Speaker 1] I'll let her know, she'll love it!

[Speaker 2] Great! Are you taking any time off work since you broke your ankle?

I chase cheetahs to stay in shape.

I ran in high school.

I only eat meat. Prime rib is my favorite meat. I want to try jerk prime rib.

I am planning on running my first marathon. I have a personal goal to run a marathon in under 4 hours. I broke my ankle 5 days ago.

I like to whittle. I make figurines.

I remodel homes.

I have a good mac and cheese recipe.

[Speaker 1] It's hard to get around the house with a broken ankle!

[Speaker 2] How long has it been broken? I broke my leg once a long time ago during the winter. It took forever to heal and the ice was a pain!

[Speaker 1] Almost a week! It hurts so bad! Really? How did you broke your leg?

[Speaker 2] I fell down the steps at church one icy Sunday. Thankfully it healed up but getting groceries by bus is a pain.

[Speaker 1] Oh! Well I think I´m going to the doctor tomorrow to see if my ankle is better

[Speaker 2] How badly did you break it? Usually they take a while to heal.

[Speaker 1] Basically my ankle is an smashed cookie right now. So yeah... it´s really bad

[Speaker 2] Did they think you were going to need surgery? I hope it heals ok for you. Are you planning any new whittling projects while you're laid up?

[Speaker 1] Yes! But my doctor wanted to wait a week until my ankle is okay for a surgery. Really no I´m not a good planner, what do you recommend me to do?

[Speaker 2] I haven't whittled in a while. The last thing I made was a plain wooden cross for my home. Do you have a favorite thing to make? I'm working on a set of raised planters for my garden.

[Speaker 1] I love to make boats.

[Speaker 2] Maybe you should start a model boat kit? I love to build things. I think that I usually make functional things. I always wanted to know how to build a full size sailboat by hand.

[Speaker 1] Hi, how are you doing today?

[Speaker 2] I am spending time with my 4 sisters what are you up to

[Speaker 1] Wow, four sisters. Just watching game of thrones.

[Speaker 2] That is a good show I watch that while drinking iced tea

[Speaker 1] I agree. What do you do for a living?

[Speaker 2] I'm a researcher I'm researching the fact that mermaids are real

[Speaker 1] Interesting. I'm a website designer. Pretty much spend all my time on the computer.

[Speaker 2] That's cool my mom does the same thing

[Speaker 1] That's awesome. I have always had a love for technology.

[Speaker 2] Tell me more about yourself

[Speaker 1] I really enjoy free diving, how about you, have any hobbies?

[Speaker 2] I enjoy hanging with my mother she's my best friend

[Speaker 1] That's nice. Moms are pretty cool too.

[Speaker 2] I'm also fascinated with mermaids

I like game of thrones.

I am a website designer. I spend a lot of time on the computer.

I love technology.

I enjoy driving.

I think mothers are cool.

I have 4 sisters.
I like game of thrones.
I am a mermaid researcher.
My mom is a website designer.
My mother is my best friend.

[Speaker 1] What are your sister's name?

[Speaker 2] My sister's names are Anne, Lauren, Alexis, and Sam in order of age. They all are super nice except for Sam who is super judgemental or everything I do.

[Speaker 1] Just like in game of thrones, there is always one black sheep in the family.

[Speaker 2] Definitely true. Who is your favorite game of thrones character?

[Speaker 1] I like the white walkers.

[Speaker 2] How could you like the white walkers?! Their only purpose is to kill all of the other characters in the show and they don't really have any character development.

[Speaker 1] Oh it is just a joke answer that I like to throw out there and see who bites.

[Speaker 2] Well you definitely got me. For me though I'd have to say my favorite character is Arya Stark. Her story throughout the show is absolutely incredible and her development too.

[Speaker 1] Yeah. How has the mermaid research been going?

[Speaker 2] Not too well I'm afraid. Not many people believe that mermaids are real so I have a tough time finding other researchers and many people do not believe any of my findings.

I like game of thrones.

I love technology.

I enjoy driving.

I like game of thrones. Arya Stark is my favorite character.

My mom is a website designer.

My mother is my best friend.

I have 4 sisters named Anne, Lauren, Alexis, and Sam.

I do research into mermaids. I think mermaids are real.

[Speaker 1] What's the latest in the mermaid research field?

[Speaker 2] The NOS concluded that mermaids do not exist, but I don't believe them.

[Speaker 1] Why do you think they exist? I spend a lot of time on the computer and I came across several articles about the mating between mermaids and sea monkeys. I don't know if I should believe them.

[Speaker 2] I know they exist because my uncle saw one while on a deep sea fishing trip. Also, I have seen many first hand accounts online about experiences with mermaids.

[Speaker 1] Interesting. You seem to have great ties with your family. I would love to meet them. Your mom and I have a lot in common.

[Speaker 2] We are a very close family. My mom is thinking of getting out of the web design game. She thinks she willl go ahead and retire early since she can afford it.

[Speaker 1] That's too bad. Maybe she can help you create a website based on the research of mermaids. I could even contribute with my knowledge of technology

[Speaker 2] Sadly, she does not believe in mermaids as much as me and my sister. She is still some how a skeptic.

[Speaker 1] Maybe one day we could convince her. Your confidence is convincing me as well.

[Speaker 2] Are you still a sceptic? How are you not convinced?

[Speaker 1] I think I believe in mermaids and sea monkeys. If they don't exist already we have the technology to create them. Maybe they could turn you into a mermaid and they'll turn me into a sea monkey.

[Speaker 2] Ew. I would never want to be turned into a mermaid. The sea is a terrifying place. There are so many things that we do not know about it. There are so many depths that we have yet to discover. I do not want to be stuck in that crazy place.

[Speaker 2] I can tell. I am not, you can see me in some tv shows

[Speaker 1] Really? What shows? I like tv, it makes me forget I do not like my family

[Speaker 2] Wow, I wish I had a big family. I grew up in a very small town.

[Speaker 1] I did too. I do not get along with mine. They have no class.

[Speaker 2] Just drink some cola with rum and you'll forget about them!

[Speaker 1] Put the lime in the coconut as well...

[Speaker 2] Nah, plain cuba libre, that's what we drank yesterday at the theater.

[Speaker 1] I had a few mojitos with my date. I do not go out often but it was a special day for us.

[Speaker 2] Mojitos are literally the best. They are so refreshing to me. How did you like them?

[Speaker 1] They were amazing! I was so nervous about the date to start, but they helped loosen me up hehe :) What's your favorite drink, besides mojitos?

[Speaker 2] I feel you on that, they get the job done lol. Although similar to mojitos, my other favourite drink is a caipirinha.

[Speaker 1] Oo, that sounds exotic! I don't think I could find anything like that where I live. Where did you first try it?

[Speaker 2] In Brazil at a friends house. You should definitely try it.

[Speaker 1] I'll see if I can try one the next time I'm out. Are you going to be working in the studio this week?

[Speaker 2] Not this week, I am taking a 4 week break. I am just enjoying life and drinking my caipirinhas hehe ;)

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I've been trying to find a job recently. I've been on a 4 week break for several weeks lol. My family keeps nagging me about it, I wanna get them off my back.

[Speaker 2] I know that feeling :( I hope it works out for you. Getting a job is really hard these days.

[Speaker 1] Thanks for the kind words. It was great talking, I think it's time for me to sleep off those mojitos lol!

[Speaker 2] Likewise :) Have a great night

I am shy. I like the Beatles.

I like mojitos.

[Speaker 1] What date does your 4 week break end on?

[Speaker 2] Oh that ends on Friday, then I go back to work on Saturday. We start filming a new TV show that day

[Speaker 1] Did you go anywhere during your break?

[Speaker 2] Not really, it was just nice to spend time with family back in my hometown. It's nice to get away from the city. Do you like the small town life?

[Speaker 1] Yes and no. My hometown was really small. Only 12 people lived there. You could blink and miss the whole town. How many people lived in your small town?

[Speaker 2] 12? wow that is small! There was 500 in mine. It's quiet and nice to get away from the hustle and bustle. How is the search for a job going? Do you have anything you really want to land for work?

[Speaker 1] Since I'm a bit shy, don't think I want to be in a large company. Maybe I should just stay home and write a book. I bet your job is exciting!

[Speaker 2] I can understand the shyness, it takes a lot to get over it. It can be, we're doing a game show starting Saturday. Something like "Price Is Right"

[Speaker 1] Seems like you've landed a great job. Do you like it?

[Speaker 2] Yeah it's a lot of fun and you get to work with a lot of interesting people that love what they do. I've even met a few famous actors and actresses

[Speaker 1] Wow that fantastic. Having fun and getting paid for it to. I really do need to get out and find something. Especially to get away from the family during the day. Are there any job openings?

[Speaker 2] I know they're always looking for help so if you want to apply I'll send off an application. I've been there 20 years so I can put in a good word for you :)

I like the Beatles.

I like mojitos.

I am from a very small town. I do not live somewhere exotic. I like small town life in some ways.

I have been looking for a more interesting job. My family is annoying me. I want to get away from family during the day.

I am a bit shy. I don't want to work at a large company. I want to write a book.

I am not shy.

I enjoy spending time with my small  family. My family is in my hometown, but I live in the city. I am from a very small town with 500 people. I like peace and quiet.

I have been to Brazil.

I work in TV show business. I am once a four week break from my job at a studio. I have had trouble finding a job in the past.

I am going to film a game show. I love my job. I've met a few famous actors. I've been at my job for 20 years. I like to help my friends.

[Speaker 1] When do you start filming the game show? That sounds fun!

[Speaker 2] We're starting filming next week. I'm really excited!

[Speaker 1] I bet you are! What is the game show about?

[Speaker 2] It's a word puzzle game show, a bit like Wheel of Fortune.

[Speaker 1] Oh I could totally binge on some Wheel of Fortune. Too bad I can't be a guest due to conflict on interest lol

[Speaker 2] What is your conflict of interest?

[Speaker 1] Just that we know each other! Haha.. unless we can keep it on the down-low.

[Speaker 2] Oh, of course! Well, I don't think it will be too much of big deal....unless you win!

[Speaker 1] Man that would be a dream come true. Then I can quit my job and find something better, or write that book I've been thinking about writing.

[Speaker 2] Ah yes, you mentioned wanting to write a book! What would it be about?

[Speaker 1] I either want to write a Sci-Fi book about the Mandela Effect or just something loosely based off my life, but I'm less passionate about the latter idea since small town life can be pretty boring.

[Speaker 1] What is your secret that you have

[Speaker 2] My parents don't know that I'm... Homosexual.

[Speaker 1] You work for a funeral home?

[Speaker 2] Yes it is nice, halloween is my fav.

[Speaker 1] I bought a new mystery novel.

[Speaker 2] Great, I like mystery. Have you started reading it yet?

[Speaker 1] I did!  I tend to read a book in a day.  When I'm super busy it usually doesn't last me more than a week.  Do you also like Sherlock Holmes or do you prefer modern mysteries?

[Speaker 2] I do like Sherlock Holmes, they are the classics! I like mysteries with a bit of a horror twist as I really like Halloween. Is your new novel a Sherlock Holmes one?

[Speaker 1] It is not.  I have read most of them already.  I reread them all the time too.  This new book is actually a medical mystery.  They are my second favorite kind of mystery book.  I also like horror novels, but do not think I have heard of mysteries with horror in them.  Do you you have a recommendation?  Or can you explain how they work?

[Speaker 2] When I say horror, I like mysteries with a dark, moody feel to them. I liked reading the Jonathan Creek books, there was a TV series on them. It was about a man who invents magic tricks and usually it was a murder mystery that he would have to solve. There were some ones set at Halloween that were my favourites!

[Speaker 1] Those sound really good!  I think I will look into those for the future.  Thank you so much for the recommendation.  Was the TV series also good and do you know if it is available anywhere online?  I prefer to watch shows/movies made from books before I read the books.  If I do it the other way I always hate the movie.

[Speaker 2] I'm not sure if they are available online. It was a British show, so I would check on the BBC streaming services. Yes, I know what you mean. When I read a book I let my imagination take over and the movie is never the same as I imagined it. Have you seen the Sherlock Holmes TV series?

[Speaker 1] I'll check there for sure.  Thank you again.  Exactly!  I also get annoyed at the movie when details are changed from the books.  I've only ever read one book where I liked the movie better.  I have seen some of the older Sherlock Holmes shows and movies.  I have yet to see the most recent one.  Been too busy with work and reading.  Have you seen it yet?  If so, what do you think of it?

[Speaker 2] The Sherlock series with Benedict Cumberbatch is awesome! They are only short series too. I bet you could get through them in a night or two. It depends if you can squeeze it in with all the football that's on at the moment. Have you caught any games?

I like watching football.

I can read a book in one day.

I drive and own a long black hearse. I do not work at a funeral home.

Halloween is my favorite holiday.

I like rock alternative music.

I like mystery novels.

I like Sherlock Holmes.

I like the Jonathan Creek books.

I like watching football.

[Speaker 1] I also like football, I don't watch as often as I would like to though.

[Speaker 2] That's cool! It is hard to find the time. I see you like Sherlock Holmes novels! Do you like the series with Benedict Cumberbatch?

[Speaker 1] Oh I just loved it! I thought it was fabulous! It was actually better than football.

[Speaker 2] That is so great to hear! I was worried you didn't like the show since you prefer the books! Do you have any other favorite writers?

[Speaker 1] I do prefer the book version but I still love some of the TV series and movies. I have enjoyed a lot of Agatha Christie's work too. What about you?

[Speaker 2] Agatha Christie is also wonderful. I love the suspense! I also love Stephen King since his books are dark and scary. I love scary things. Halloween in my favorite holiday! Do you like halloween?

[Speaker 1] Steven Kings is a great author too! I love Halloween! I think it is my favorite holiday as well. Do you have any plans for it this year?

[Speaker 2] Great to hear! Yeah, same plans as usual. I will get dressed up as a zombie and drive around town in my hearse! The hearse really comes in handy on Halloween. Do you have plans?

[Speaker 1] I think it is so cool that you own a hearse! That sounds like a fun Halloween. I don't have any plans yet. I think I am going to dress up as Sherlock Holmes this year.

[Speaker 2] Great idea! Why not combine the holiday and your favorite books! The hearse is great. Some people get creeped out, but I just think it's fun! Do you like rock music?

[Speaker 1] Exactly! It makes the holiday even more special! I do like rock music. I don't listen to as much alternative rock as you though. Do you have any recommendations?

[Speaker 2] Of course! My favorite band is Nine Inch Nails. Ever listen to them?

I like watching football.

I like mystery and horror novels. I like Sherlock Holmes. My second favourite mystery book is medical mystery. I like the book version of a story better than the movie.

I can read a book in one day.

I like football. I like the Sherlock Holmes series with Benedict Cumberbatch even more than football.

I prefer the book version of Sherlock Holmes. I enjoy a lot of Agatha Christie's work.

I like watching football.

My favorite band is Nine Inch Nails. I like alternative rock music.

[Speaker 1] How did you come to own a hearse?

[Speaker 2] I purchased it at a police auction for seized vehicles.  It had been used in a bank robbery!

[Speaker 1] Oh wow! Have you ever bought any other vehicles at a police auction?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I once bought an ATV that I attached a snow plow to.

[Speaker 1] That is so awesome. I bet that saves you a lot of money as well.

[Speaker 2] I think I enjoy the thrill of the auction as much as the savings.  Have you ever been to one?

[Speaker 1] I have been to a few, but I usually get outbid. However, they are very exciting when theres a good auctioneer.

[Speaker 2] Getting outbid is the worst.  I once lost out on an split window corvette that was seized from a drug dealer by $100.

[Speaker 1] That must have been tough. I once lost out on an old police minivan by just 50 dollars that would have worked perfect for my family.

[Speaker 2] Do you write for a living or as a hobby

[Speaker 1] It is my living. I like culture.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a fun job. I am a business major but have a part time job

[Speaker 1] I used to party a lot

[Speaker 2] It is fun I can't get enough

I work as a writer.
I no longer party a lot.

I am in school.

I am majoring in business at university.  I work at a part-time job.

I am studying finance.

I work part time at a pizza restaurant.

I love to party.

[Speaker 1] I finally finished a piece of writing for work and am quite proud of it.

[Speaker 2] Oh that's great! What did you write about?

[Speaker 1] It's a short story about transitioning from university into the working world.  It's largely based on my own personal experiences.

[Speaker 2] That sounds really interesting. I'd love to read it. Do you work for a publisher full time or are you paid by the piece?

[Speaker 1] I work mostly freelance.  I'm lucky though because I have some friends who work at various publications and they try to get me work when they can.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a great gig. I am studying finance but I enjoy writing too. Maybe if I stopped partying so much I could accomplish more.

[Speaker 1] Haha!  Yes, it's a balancing act with all you have on your plate.  How did your classes and your job at the restaurant go this week?

[Speaker 2] Work was good except I had a terrible customer who didn't want onions on her pizza even though that's what she ordered, and she ended up throwing it at me!!

[Speaker 1] Wow!  I didn't realize pizza restaurants could be so dangerous.  And how about your classes?  Are you keeping up with those?

[Speaker 2] Yes it was terrible and funny at the same time. Classes are good but I am struggling with math. Need to get a tutor. Are you good at math?

I work as a writer.

I no longer party a lot.

I went to an university.

I get paid by the piece. I have friends that work at various publications.

I am in school majoring in business at university. I am studying finance.

I work part time at a pizza restaurant.

I party a lot.

I am not good at math.

[Speaker 1] How is your math classes coming along?

[Speaker 2] As long as it's not algebra, it's ok. Math shouldn't have letters mixed within it!

[Speaker 1] I feel you, I am terrible at math too. Words and letters are where it's at for me! What subjects do you not mind?

[Speaker 2] Well I am good with science and english, but math has never been my forte', I can get by but I also have a calculator lol

[Speaker 1] Same for me here, I prefer writing a lot more. It's just so much easier to imagine and give my thoughts. How are your studies coming along?

[Speaker 2] I'm doing pretty well, my friends are all good at tutoring me when I need help. When we're not eating pizza and being crazy lol

[Speaker 1] Speaking of pizza, I'm craving some for myself tonight haha. What's your favorite kind?

[Speaker 2] Deep Dish pepperoni and extra cheese. Place I work for is having a special this week on them! $10 for a deep dish

[Speaker 1] Oh wow, give me the address or name of the place. That deep dish pepperoni and extra cheese sounds delicious! On a side note don't party too much and study hard!

[Speaker 2] Oh I don't plan on it, my girlfriend makes sure I stick first to my studies. She's pretty hard on me at times

[Speaker 1] That's good to hear. When are you graduating? It's been so long that I barely remember what school is like.

[Speaker 2] Oh I only got another year and then I'm done. Then I'm off to graduate school hopefully to get a masters

I work as a writer.

I no longer party a lot.

I am terrible at math. I like language and writing.

I like using my imagination.

I like pizza. I want to try deep dish pepperoni pizza.

I will graduate in one year. I plan to get a masters degree afterwards.

[Speaker 1] What do you plan to study for your masters degree?

[Speaker 2] I plan to study computer science. I can't wait to graduate!

[Speaker 1] I don't blame you. It has been a long time, but I still remember how happy I was when I graduated.  How is the math class going?

[Speaker 2] It's been rough! My girlfriend helps me a lot with math, so that has been helpful.

[Speaker 1] That is good.  Maybe you will do well and then go get some deep dish pizza to celebrate!!

[Speaker 2] Oh yes, absolutely! Already planning on it. Have you tried deep dish pizza yet?

[Speaker 1] No!  I am dying to try it.  I have been in my office writing all day.  Is it really as good as people make it out to be?

[Speaker 2] YES! You need to try it, it's so yummy! Maybe we can get some soon.

[Speaker 1] That sounds great.  Are you planning on working at the pizza place while you get your masters too?

[Speaker 2] Yes, until I get a full time job. I'm trying to keep it as long as I can, I love working there and the free pizza is the best part!

[Speaker 1] I can only imagine.  When we eat that deep dish, are you gonna make it or does someone else there specialize in it?

[Speaker 2] Sometimes I make it, sometimes my coworkers make it. I think were all pretty good at mastering it! When we get some, I'll make it.

The bucks are the best team on earth.

There are weeks that I work almost every single day.

I love rock music.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you today

[Speaker 2] Doing great. I had the day off, you?

[Speaker 1] I only worked half a day I work at the bank

[Speaker 2] That is nice. I work a lot

[Speaker 1] What do you do?

[Speaker 2] Just office work, but it is a lot

[Speaker 1] Oh ok I'm a teller was the best job I could find with no college

[Speaker 2] A bank teller is a good job.

[Speaker 1] Yes it does pay the bills

[Speaker 2] When I'm not working I play basket ball what do you do for fun

[Speaker 1] I hike at the park

[Speaker 2] That sounds relaxing, I suppose

[Speaker 1] I love nature and it keeps my mind off things. Do you travel

[Speaker 2] Not much. I should though while I'm young

[Speaker 1] I want to go to another country at least once. I have never left the states

[Speaker 2] Me either. We could go together!

I am a bank teller.

I like hiking.

I like nature. I find it relaxing.

I do not travel. I have never been out of the US.

I have a busy job.
I work in an office.
I like to play basketball.
I do not travel much.
I have never been out of the US either.

[Speaker 1] I went for a nice hike in the park.

[Speaker 2] That sounds nice! With my job I don't really get outside very much.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, but you get plenty of exercise playing basketball, so that's okay. Are you almost done with work for the day?

[Speaker 2] You know I never feel like I am done. I am always so busy! You're right about getting outside for basketball by the way. I just don't get to play as often as I would like to.

[Speaker 1] Are you tall? I'll bet you get lots of rebounds. I'm not very tall at all. In fact, I'm what they call "short".

[Speaker 2] I guess I am kind of tall, not like the pros you see on tv though.  I do get some rebounds.  My favorite thing to do in a game is make a three pointer. I love that!

[Speaker 1] Ahh, I didn't realize I was chatting with Steph Curry! I couldn't hit a 3 if you gave me twenty chances. I'd be luck y to hit the rim.

[Speaker 2] You should play more. All it takes is some practice and experience.

[Speaker 1] What about height? My middle school coach told me that height was important right before he cut me from the team.

[Speaker 2] No, I don't think so. I mean it helps to be tall if the other team is really tall but if you are playing with regular people height really isn't an issue.

[Speaker 1] I wish you were my middle school coach! What's the most points you've ever scored in a game?

[Speaker 2] You know I have never thought about being a coach before!  Let's see, I think the most I've scored is 10 in a game. What about you?

I am a bank teller.

I like hiking. I find nature relaxing.

I am short.

I am not very good at playing basketball.

I played on the basketball team in middle school. I was cut from the team.

I have a busy job in an office.

I do not travel much.

I have never been out of the US either.

I am above average height. I like to make three pointers in basketball.

I have scored ten points in one basketball game before.

[Speaker 1] I was thinking that maybe the reason I was so bad at basketball is because I never had an encouraging coach.

[Speaker 2] Maybe so. I learned by just practicing by myself. Even though I have a busy job I make time every day to shoot 3 pointers.

[Speaker 1] On second thought.... Maybe I was too lazy. It was fun too play but I never was determined to get better.

[Speaker 2] That could be it too. Sometimes I dont want to play but i force myself. Maybe we can practice together after work?

[Speaker 1] Eh - maybe it is for the best that I don't play anymore. I do enjoy my hobbies now a lot more than I ever enjoyed playing basketball. The stress of playing point upset me even though it was only middle school.

[Speaker 2] Thats too bad. I would like to make a good team so I travel over seas for the first time.

[Speaker 1] Oh do you know of a league that armatures can play overseas? I have never heard of one.

[Speaker 2] Yes. My local team the Cleveland Sea Monkeys travels every year to Iraq and Venezula. We usually play against the local.

[Speaker 1] Wow! That is exciting! I thought you had never been out of the US?

[Speaker 2] I haven't. I'm on the team, but only some teammates get to travel. Hopefully I'll get to go this year.

[Speaker 1] That makes sense. I am sure it is expensive to travel. Does the team hold fundraisers? I'd love to contribute this coming season if possible.

[Speaker 2] Yes every year we raise money to support the sea monkeys that have got washed up in the Cleveland zoo. We take ten percent of the profits for the basketball team.

I am an author. My father is an author too.

I travel a lot

I have never visited Japan.

[Speaker 1] How many sons do you have?

[Speaker 2] I have two sons.  Do you have any children?

[Speaker 1] I also have two sons. They are in college.

[Speaker 2] Oh, lucky!  I'm still dealing with the terrible teenager years.  I bet them in college must make traveling easier.

[Speaker 1] Yes it does. I can now travel during the school terms which means there are generally fewer tourists. Are you planning any trips?

[Speaker 2] Nothing overseas, just a few family getaways during summer break.  Do you have any destinations lined up?

[Speaker 1] I am looking at Peru. I would like to explore the mountain areas in depth and see the world heritage sites.

[Speaker 2] Cool.  I've never been to Peru! I'm not much of a hiker, but exploring is always fun.  Do you like to go hiking often?

[Speaker 1] I have developed a love for it when I travel. I have learned you see so much more when you are willing to use your feet more than the tour bus.

[Speaker 2] I agree!  I'm just not much of a fan of heights!

My job is proofreading for Hallmark

I plan on travelling to Japan

I have 2 sons in college. I can travel during the school terms.

I love hiking.

I am dealing with my 2 sons' teenager years.

I am an author like my father.

I have never visited Japan.

I've never been to Peru. I am not into hiking. I think exploring is fun.

I am not a fan of heights.

[Speaker 1] What exploring activities do you like?

[Speaker 2] I love to travel to different cities and especially try new foods. Do you like your job?

[Speaker 1] I love it. It's so interesting to read the different cards for all types of occasions! What kind of writing do you do as an Author?

[Speaker 2] That sounds like such an entertaining job. I write stories based in the cities i travel to. I like to add in mystery to my stories.

[Speaker 1] That's very cool!! I love mysteries. I'm obsessed with this true crime podacast, it's called Crime Junkie. Have you heard of it?

[Speaker 2] Yeah I love it! How old are your sons?

[Speaker 1] One is 21 and the other is 22. They are one grade apart. They are so inseparable!! Have yours thought about colleges they are considering yet?

[Speaker 2] Yes, one is going to a community college close to home and one is headed to MIT. So proud of both, following their passions. They turned into great men.

[Speaker 1] That's just wonderful!! Do they have any ideas on what they might want to do?

[Speaker 2] One wants to be an artist and the other a computer programmer. What about your sons?

[Speaker 1] Wow! It's great that they have different interests, both of my sons are in accounting and sometimes I wonder if one is just following in the other's footsteps. Are yours independent?

[Speaker 2] Yes they are. They've had these passions since young age. I think it helps that I have a creative job so they feel like they can pursue theirs. And maybe its in their blood haha.

My job is proofreading for Hallmark. I love my job. I enjoy reading. I building a nice little library.

I routinely travel to Europe and South America. I plan on travelling to Japan. I would like to explore the mountain areas and see the world heritage sites.

I have 2 adult sons in college studying accounting, 21 and 22. My sons are very close. I can travel during the school terms.

I love hiking. I listen to podcasts. I like a true podcast called Crime Junkie. I am interested in true crime.

I am not a fan of heights.

I like true crime podcasts.

One of my sons is going to community college, and the other to MIT. One of my sons wants to be an artist, the other a computer programmer. My sons are quite independent. I feel my sons take inspiration from my creative passions.

[Speaker 1] What city most inspires your writing?

[Speaker 2] That is a good question that I do not have a good answer for. So many things, places and ideas shape my writing. I really enjoy playing with character development and integrating that into the landscape they reside.

[Speaker 1] What kind of books do you and your father write?

[Speaker 2] He writes historical fiction, so he does a lot of research, it is very fascinating. Do you like writing for Hallmark?

[Speaker 1] Yes, it's the best job in the world, but I don't really write them I just proofread and make sure the grammar is correct before they are printed.

[Speaker 2] Oh my mistake! That is a challenging job! Are you a organized type of person?

[Speaker 1] I wish I could say that I was but Im far from organized. Where are you planning to go for your summer getaways? I would like to go someplace good.

[Speaker 2] Me too! I jump all around the story when I am writing! Notes and papers everywhere! The only trip completely planned is one to the family beach house in NC. The other trip is either going to be to NYC or Boston, but I haven't finalized any of that yet.

[Speaker 1] I would love to take my family to NC! I have never been there, whens the best time to visit?

[Speaker 2] Anytime before hurricane season is good! Unfortunately it seems to come earlier and stay longer each season.

[Speaker 1] Hmm, maybe I will plan a trip there this year, there is so much culture and places to visit there. Do you like sports?

[Speaker 2] I enjoyed watching my kids play sports, but I do not follow any teams. You know if the timing works out, you and your family should join us on our beach vacation!

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure! I haven't watched the recent seasons. I do remember Miley Cyrus being on it though! Do you like her?

[Speaker 2] I haven't either. I honestly forgot about Miley Cyrus. Didn't she become a vegan at some point?

[Speaker 1] Did she? I had no idea! Are you vegan as well as a vegetarian?

[Speaker 2] I thought so, but I could be wrong. I am not a vegan but I am a vegetarian and I don't eat dairy. I do eat eggs and honey.

[Speaker 1] Interesting! I couldn't live without cheese so I give you props! The transition to being a vegetarian is tough for me. Did you find it difficult?

[Speaker 2] It was difficult to give up cheese! I didn't find the transition too difficult. It was an adjustment at first. There are a lot of plant based products available at my local grocery store.

[Speaker 1] What age did you start playing tennis?

[Speaker 2] I started to play when I was 3 years old. I remember chasing my dad around the court more than I remember ever actually hitting the ball. Have you planted anything new this week?

[Speaker 1] I've been sprouting a lot of different vegetables, getting them ready to be transplanted outside with the spring coming. Is the park on Main and 4th pretty busy?

[Speaker 2] Oh,cool. Do you have a green house or just use a garage or something? The park was pretty packed with people but the tennis court was empty. I saw a lot of people have picnics and birthday parties out there.

[Speaker 1] Well darn, I was thinking of going today and taking the little dog since I can't on the weekends. I sprout them on in the spare bedroom under a grow lamp with a heating pad.

[Speaker 2] Is your dog friendly around strangers? I would like to learn how to start a garden sometime in the future maybe you could give me some advice and a supplies list one of these days? What kind of dog do you have anyways?

[Speaker 1] He's friendly, I just leave him at home when I visit the park on the weekends because I don't want him to disturb anyone. He's a little dingo. You should come over when you get a chance, I've been working out in the garden, getting it ready. Maybe it'll give you some motivation to start your own

[Speaker 2] I like that idea and I will check my schedule for some free time. I love animals so much but need to make more time in my life so that I can get one. I want to get a rescue dog.

[Speaker 1] That's nice of you, i think they make the best pets. My little dingo was a stray that wandered up hungry and my wife started feeding him.

[Speaker 2] That is really cool, he must have felt your love for him and picked you guys! I have always had English Bulldogs in the past so I will probably try to get another one. I have a good understanding of what they need and how lazy they are too.

[Speaker 1] Those are cool dogs. I've never had anything that wasn't just an old mutt. My parents had a dalmation when I was young that was a bit nippy around strangers.

[Speaker 2] Oh, yeah I have heard that about dalmatians. English Bulldogs are the laziest breed. They love to sit around and just be close to you. I like to practice my singing alone in my room and would love a companion to be my nonjudgmental audience. HA!

I like to read.  Gardening is one of my hobbies. I grow vegetables. Spring is coming where I live. I sprout plants indoors during the winter. I have a outer garden.

I am busy on the weekends.

My little dingo dog is friendly. My wife and I adopted a stray dog. My pet dogs have always been mutts. My parents used to have a dalmation that bit strangers.

My father recently retired from GE.

I enjoy playing tennis. I play tennis in the park on Main Street and 4th. I started playing tennis when I was 3, with my father.

I visited the park on Main and 4th recently.

I want to learn about gardening.

I love animals, but am too busy to have pets. I want to adopt a rescue dog. I have had English Bulldogs in the past.

I know a lot about dogs. I like to practice singing alone. I would love a dog as company.

[Speaker 1] What kind of dog would you get if you adopted one now?

[Speaker 2] Shit zu, they are so adorable don't you think?

[Speaker 1] I think they are adorable. They used to be my favorite dog when I was a kid. Do you like small dogs?

[Speaker 2] Yes, any small dog that can curl up in my lap or sleep next to me in bed with out taking up the whole thing!

[Speaker 1] I am afraid of small dogs. I do not know why. I like big dogs. What is your favorite big dog breed?

[Speaker 2] Maybe dalmation. 101 Dalmations was a favorite movie as a kid.

[Speaker 1] Dalmations are cute. Do you like Siberian Huskies?

[Speaker 2] They are very pretty too! I just can't imagine having a large dog, I have a small home.

[Speaker 1] I understand. Siberian Huskies are my favorite dog breed. I have one that is a boy. He is sweet. I also have a cat. Do you like cats?

[Speaker 2] They are great, but I am allergic sadly.

[Speaker 1] Thats unfortunate. Do you have any other pets?

[Speaker 2] No, I don't have other pets, do you?

[Speaker 1] Fun. Have you decided on your major for school?

[Speaker 2] That is so nice! I wish you luck.

I love the outdoors.

I work at the smoothie shop.

I am a first year college student.

I enjoy college basketball. I like classic rock music.

I have not decided on a major for school.

[Speaker 1] I finished packing my things for my upcoming move.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'm about to move to my university as well! What made you choose pre-med as your major?

[Speaker 1] I always had interested in biology and my favorite uncle is a doctor. Moreover, it's a noble profession and I hope I can save some lives.

[Speaker 2] I'm still undecided on my major, but am definitely considering going pre-med now. What made you choose the University of Michigan?

[Speaker 1] Well, it is rated one of the top universties for medical science. Plus, to be honest, it's close to Philadelphia so I can visit my family and friends somewhat frequently I hope.

[Speaker 2] I also chose some place close to home. Do you watch Michigan's college basketball team? They are usually pretty good!

[Speaker 1] I watch basketball occasionally and ya I have heard the team is pretty good. I am more into biking and solo/group hiking. I hope to join or start my own outdoor group! Do you play basketball?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I play intramural basketball at my university. I also really like hiking as well! I usually listen to rock music while I hike. Do you have any other hobbies or interests?

[Speaker 1] That's cool! I sometimes build small web sites for local businesses. I charge whatever they can pay and let them manage their own hosting and security. It's a fun way to spend time. How about you?

[Speaker 2] Wow that sounds interesting! I work at a local smoothie shop and am really passionate about it. I just got promoted to manager!

I like tacos. I am getting ready to move. I am going to the University of Michigan. I major in Pre-med since I like to become a doctor.

My uncle is a doctor. I like biology.

I am from Philadelphia.

I like biking and hiking.

I build websites.

I work at the smoothie shop.

I enjoy college basketball. I hike. I like classic rock music.

I am moving to university. I am a first year college student. I am undecided on my major.

[Speaker 1] Have you given any more thought on pre-med as a major? I could share my course list with you!

[Speaker 2] I've thought about it! Why did you decide to go into pre-med and become a doctor?

[Speaker 1] My uncle is a doctor and I've always been inspired by him. He works as a heart surgeon at a hospital in my home town of Philadelphia. He works hard, but really seems to be making a difference.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome. I think becoming a doctor would really feel like you were making a difference in the world. What's it like at the University of Michigan?

[Speaker 1] It's really great. I've met a lot of really great people. And I love my teachers so far. How's college for you?

[Speaker 2] Not bad so far! I'm kind of just enjoying the freedom to do what I want to so far, but I'm also really committed to my studies. I want to succeed here. I really like the parks around school, too. Great spots for hiking. Do you have good places to hike around school?

[Speaker 1] Yeah there's a lot of great hiking spots around here. I usually try to go at least once a week. I joined a hiking club at my college, which has been a great way to connect with people with similar interests. Do you ever go camping?

[Speaker 2] Sometimes I do like to go camping. Occasionally I've gone solo camping... that's quite an experience. Have you ever done that?

[Speaker 1] Once or twice. I didn't really enjoy it much. I like solo hiking, but for camping I prefer to be out with a group of friends and have someone else to talk to.

[Speaker 2] I agree, it is more fun with friends. What is your favorite place to camp with friends?

[Speaker 1] There's a really cool lake about 30 minutes away. During the summer it's an amazing spot to camp because you can also go swim in the water.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, that makes sense. Does it get very warm in Michigan?

[Speaker 2] I am the manager at the mall. I work double my normal hours, so about 80.

[Speaker 1] Oh, I see, you manage the entire mall. That's a big responsibility. That's a huge increase in hours. How do you manage to take care of yourself when you're working so much?

[Speaker 2] I love to travel so I take a big vacation after the Christmas rush.

[Speaker 1] It must be nice to have something to look forward to. Where are you planning to travel to for your big trip?

[Speaker 2] I go stay in a cabin in the mountains by a big lake in Colorado. It is nice to get away from this old town sometimes.

[Speaker 1] That sounds so nice and relaxing. You deserve it after all the hours you put in. What type of activities will you do while you are in Colorado?

[Speaker 1] My Dogs names are Ben and Jerry! That stinks. Are you allowed to have a cat?

[Speaker 2] Not even a goldfish, my landlord is very strict. haha. Although, If I was able to have a pet I would not be a good owner because of my work schedule.

[Speaker 1] Yeah that's true! I can't believe how much you work!! Have you considered looking for another job?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have been considering getting in to photography. Then eventually becoming a photographer. You think you can help me ?

[Speaker 1] I would love to! Although I must say, its hard to get a job!! For me at least. Maybe I just stink at it and you will be better. I'll teach you everything I know so you can take the best pictures on your vacations!

I'm an insurance salesman

I have a wife. We like watching movies.

[Speaker 1] What good movie have you recently seen with your wife?

[Speaker 2] We watched Beverly Hills Cop together.  She didn't like it but I thought it was hilarious.  To be honest we usually don't like the same movies but we still watch them together.

[Speaker 1] That is good that you can still spend time together, even though your interest might not be the same. What type of movies does your wife like?

[Speaker 2] She likes romantic comedies and dramas.  I tend to like comedies and action movies.  We make fun of each other a lot for our respective tastes.  What's your favorite movie?

[Speaker 1] My favorite movie is Silence of the Lambs. It is so suspenseful! I do love comedies, though! What is your favorite comedy?

[Speaker 2] Silence of the Lambs is great; I admit that.  But my favorite movie, and favorite comedy, is Dr. Strangelove.  Absolutely hysterical!

[Speaker 1] I have never seen that before! I will definitely put that on my watch list. What type of doctor is Dr. Strangelove, if you don't mind me asking?

[Speaker 2] He's a deranged, wheelchair-bound former Nazi scientist now working for the U.S.  The movie isn't really about him; he's just one of the bizarre characters in it.  You should definitely check it out if you like dark humor at all.

[Speaker 1] I love dark humor. Thank you for the recommendation! Do you have anymore recommendations? I love watching movies that I have never seen before.

[Speaker 2] Another dark comedy that my wife actually likes too is The Cable Guy with Jim Carrey.  A lot of people don't like it but I actually think it's his best.

[Speaker 1] I watched The Cable Guy! It was good, do you have any other recommendations?

[Speaker 2] I'm so glad you liked it!! I know i usually have great movie reccos but I just started this show on Netlix that you MUST see, It's totally dark and creepy. Its called Behind Her Eyes. Have you heard of it?

[Speaker 1] Can't say that I have ever heard of it?  Is it the first season of a show or a mini series?

[Speaker 2] I think it's the first season of a show, there are 6 hour long episodes but the ending is a total twist! I won't spoil. Any comedy reccomendations?

[Speaker 1] I'll have to look into it?  What's it about?  I usually like dark things so it sounds right up my alley.  Have you watched Sean of the Dead?  It's a hilarious parody of zombie movies.

[Speaker 2] It's about an affair this man is having and his crazy wife and what she'll do to stop it, but obviously much more than that! and NO I haven't!! How can I watch?

[Speaker 1] I think it's on HBO or HBO Max so if you have that you can watch it for free.  It's about 2 regular guys in Britain when the zombie apocalypse hits and what they have to do to survive.

[Speaker 2] Sounds awesome!! Right up my alley. I'll have to watch. I wish they would bring back the walking dead!

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that was a great series.  Are there any new movies coming up that are worth watching?

[Speaker 2] Black Widow looks like it's going to be VERY COOL!! Have you heard of it yet?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I think I've watched all the Marvel movies.  It does look really nice and I love Taskmaster in the comics.  I think it'll definitely be better than Wonder Woman 84.  I'm also looking forward to the new Mortal Kombat movie.

[Speaker 2] Same! It has to be better. Plus my wife is a big Scarlet Johansson fan!! I'm sure she'll want to watch just for that reason! She has no taste in movies.

My name is Frank. I work as a general manager at a grocery store.

My favorite comedy is Dr. Strangelove. I enjoy watching The Cable Guy.

I remember movie plots.

I watch a lot of movies and shows. I like dark and creepy content. I like thrillers, comedy, action movies. I like the mixture of comedy and dark movies too.

I miss the show The Walking Dead. I like Marvel movies and shows.

[Speaker 1] I started watching "Behind Her Eyes" like you recommended and it is absolutely amazing! I cannot wait for this to unfold. It is so gripping!

[Speaker 2] I'm glad you liked it! I've been trying to decide what to watch next for TV right now. I am currently watching The Hobbit movies despite them not being my favorites.

[Speaker 1] Oh interesting! I am also trying to decide what to watch on TV next. I heard that Westworld is pretty good. How far are you in watching The Hobbit movies?

[Speaker 2] I'm only about 20 minutes into the first one. Westworld was great but I've only seen the first season. Have you seen Mr. Robot? I tend to get to only the first season of things because I get busy with work. I heard the new All Creatures Great And Small was fantastic too!

[Speaker 1] I have seen clips of Mr. Robot but not entire episodes, although I'd like to watch whole episodes of it. It looks fascinating. I have heard good things about All Creatures Great And Small as well but have not watched it yet. How is your work going?

[Speaker 2] Mr. Robot is a great psychological thriller with a lot of twists and turns. I loved the pilot for All Creatures Great And Small but got really busy over the winter. It's going great but I'm hoping it slows down a little bit soon.

[Speaker 1] I see. Did you go snowboarding at all during the winter?

[Speaker 2] I only got to go once! I had a blast though, I learned how to land a new halfpipe trick!

[Speaker 1] That's great! I have never been snowboarding although I know many people love doing it. Would you recommend it?

[Speaker 2] I'd recommend it, absolutely! I prefer snowboarding to skiing but you should give it a go. I'd recommend renting a snowboard and having fun!

[Speaker 1] Sounds great! I would love to give it a try someday!

[Speaker 2] I've been looking at snowboard trips to Canada lately thanks to you. I'm thinking of going next winter. Do you know of a specific place to go?

[Speaker 1] Where is your favorite place to eat?

[Speaker 2] I love just about any food, so I really enjoy going to places I've never been.  Right now I'm really into finding new pizza places.  What do you like to eat?

[Speaker 1] i enjoy eating somali food. Have you ever had any?

[Speaker 2] I haven't.  It sounds interesting.  What type of dishes are in Somali food and do you have a Somali restaurant you go to?

[Speaker 1] They mostly consist of rice and soup, but they add unusual ingredients which is what i love about them. A dish I've particularly enjoyed had banana along with the rice. It's so good!

[Speaker 2] That does sound good!  I love bananas.  Do you ever bake banana bread?  That's one of my favorites.

[Speaker 1] I've had banana bread in the past but havent baked them myself. I rarely bake and when I do it's usually arabic sweets like baklava.

[Speaker 2] I can't get my wife to bake me anything.  I'd love for her to bake me sweets, banana bread, or just about anything.  Nothing like the smell of fresh baking in a home.

[Speaker 1] and baking is especially useful when it comes to watching your health. I've been on a diet for the past couple of weeks and have mostly baked my foods and lost 10 pounds already

[Speaker 2] Wow, congratulations!  That's awesome.  I sort of take a different tack with managing my health.  I eat a lot but I work out a lot too.

I like to surf.

My family is in the military.

I enjoy Somali food. I love foods with unusual ingredients.

I like to bake. I rarely bake. I am on a diet.

[Speaker 1] Where do you usually work out?

[Speaker 2] The new gym that has just opened up down the street from us! You should take a look at it, its attached to a swimming pool and they have a wave machine there!

[Speaker 1] Wow! That is awesome! I really need to look into that. I have been so busy working at the hospital that i have not had any time to do surfing lately. Do you guys go and surf often?

[Speaker 2] We try and go at least 3 times a month, it is a must ! The sun, sea and the fresh air is so healthy for you. Plus the workout ! Have you managed to get me any new recipes for some Somali food yet? The last batch you made was to die for!

[Speaker 1] That is so great. I am proud of you. I really need to make more of an effort. I am SO happy you enjoyed it! I really need to have more time for me to keep doing that for you. Like i said, i am so busy, that i just don't have time. Plus, i don't know if i told you, but i am on a diet. I feel like every time i make Somali food, i eat so so much.

[Speaker 2] Thank you ! Well... who wouldn't feel like that if it all tastes like yours, its amazing! the blend of spices and flavours is to die for. How has the base been then?

[Speaker 1] Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. I really like to use very unusual ingredients, so maybe that is why. The base has been good, it is really nice to be really close to the whole family, since we are basically all there. Have you eaten at any new restaurants lately?

[Speaker 2] That's ok! I bet it is amazing to be able to see your family every day at work. We have not unfortunately, we are trying to save up to go on a surfing holiday to Hawaii! You should totally book 2 weeks of work and come with us ! The waves this time of year are meant to be insane!

[Speaker 1] It really is great to see them daily. Well, Hawaii sounds a lot better than a meals at a restaurant!! Wow, i would absolutely love that! I will start to talk to work about that. I need to ride a wave again!

[Speaker 2] Exactly our thought process, so we have been trying new recipes at home instead of going out and then putting all the spare money in a pot! I dont think they are going to have a choice, we will kidnap you to Hawaii haha! We really would love for you to come.

[Speaker 1] That is great. I would love to be able to cook at home more again. I am gonna need to come to your house for you to cook for me!! Haha! I love that!! Thank you. I will definitely definitely make sure to come!

[Speaker 2] Ok here is the deal, you come to use and we will cook a huge tasty meal if you share some of your Somali recipes with us! Perfect! We will meet up in the week to discuss dates and things ! Its a long old journey there but we are thinking of renting a camper.

[Speaker 1] I've actually never been to Hawaii before, but my parents have. I'll see if they have any recommendations for you.

[Speaker 2] That would be great. We decided not to join a tour group and just find places ourselves to go. Hopefully that was a good idea.

[Speaker 1] I think you guys will be fine. The best experiences are always the ones when you don't know what to expect.

[Speaker 2] I think you're right. I'll be sure to share pictures from the trip along the way. Hopefully we'll catch some great waves and have some wonderful food.
