I love taking walks on the beach. In my free time, I go on mountain hikes. I can speak english and spanish fluently. I'm currently in high school. I am moving to a new house next week.
Speaker 2
I am a hunter. I like to go hunting. My favorite animal to hunt is deer. Deer are over populated and that concerns me. I am generally concerned about wildlife.
Speaker 1
I love walking on the beach near where I live in my spare time. I am in year 9 of high school and doing my o levels. I live in the uk and study spanish. The fees in the uk are expensive for university.
Speaker 2
I love reading and going to art museums in my spare time. I live about an hour away from the beach. I have not been able to hike in the mountains lately due to the rain. I have a daughter who is in high school. I am from California and my daughter is in the 11th grade. My daughter studies french. My daughter wants to attend a university in either the uk or france. I believe my daughter is leaning towards attending university in the uk.
Speaker 1
Hi.
Speaker 2
Hi.
Speaker 1
What do you like doing in your spare time?
Speaker 2
I love reading and going to art museums. What about you?
Speaker 1
Walking on the beach near where I live is great fun.
Speaker 2
I wish I was closer to the beach. I live about an hour away.
Speaker 1
The mountains are great for walking also.
Speaker 2
They are. I haven't done much hiking though because of the rain.
Speaker 1
I don't get out often because I am still in high school studying.
Speaker 2
I have a daughter in high school. What grade are you in?
Speaker 1
I am in year 9, so doing my o levels now.
Speaker 2
You must be somewhere in europe then. My daughter is in 11th grade and I'm in california.
Speaker 1
Yes I am in the uk studying spanish.
Speaker 2
My daughter is studying french.
Speaker 1
That is good for a job in europe.
Speaker 2
I think for university she wants to study either in the uk or france.
Speaker 1
I would say uk is better. Better quality teaching. But that is just my opinion.
Speaker 2
I think she is leaning that way..
Speaker 1
The fees are expensive so shop around for the best university.
Speaker 2
Will do. Thanks for chatting with me..
Speaker 1
No probs. Been a pleasure, hope I helped.
Speaker 2
You did. Have a good rest of your day!

Speaker 1
I was able to find some time today to take a break from studying for school and go walk on the beach.
Speaker 2
That sounds lovely, I am goin to the beach with my daughter later today.
Speaker 1
It's always nice to get out to the beach and take a walk. Does your daughter like the beach?
Speaker 2
She does, but school studies take up a lot of her time, she is trying to get in to university.
Speaker 1
Tell me about it. I spend most of my time studying. Has she decided where she is going to go?
Speaker 2
She wants to study French at a university abroad. What are you studying?
Speaker 1
I'm studying Spanish. So, she wants to study a foreign language like me. How fascinating!
Speaker 2
I do not speak any foreign languages, Spanish sounds like a great language to learn. Where do you study?
Speaker 1
I study in the UK but go to Spain in the summer to put it all to the test. Thinking back, I probably should have just attended school in Spain to learn better and be immersed in the language.
Speaker 2
Do you hike in the UK? I am going to spend my summer time hiking in California while my daughter is busy studying.
Speaker 1
I haven't been proper hiking in some time. The last time was in the Ludlow area. When I get some free time from studying I like to go the beach instead. What is it like hiking in California?
Speaker 2
Ludlow, that sounds like a beautiful place, I have never been! Hiking in California is wonderful, I can walk down to the beach and enjoy drinks and lunch at my favorite taco spot to relax.

My friends are planning a hike just like we talked about. This is gonna get interesting.
Speaker 2
Oh, cool! Where are they planning to go? I love hiking.
Speaker 1
Haha, I know you love hiking, silly! I will be visiting CA next week on business. You got the time for us?
Speaker 2
Yes, of course! The weather should be better then. It actually rained today which is unusual for southern California. I'll come pick you up at the airport if you like.
Speaker 1
Sounds great! Bring your daughter along! The hike is on near the ocean in Malibu.
Speaker 2
I have the perfect place. We just need to climb down the path but it's pretty safe. At the bottom is a natural Hot Springs. A bunch of us meet up there.
Speaker 1
We can watch the sunset & sing campfire songs! I have a harmonica. Which one of you lovely ladies strums or sings?
Speaker 2
I really want to make some s'mores then! I play the guitar, but, still learning. I bet it will sound good with your harmonica.
Speaker 1
After a beers anyways! 
Speaker 2
That sounds perfect. I'll make sure to pick some up. 
Speaker 1
And I will bring some from the UK with me, I am sure you will love. So, how was tour day?
Speaker 2
I'd love to try the UK beer! My day was good but tiring. I'm glad tomorrow is a day off. How was yours?

How are your guitar lessons going? I'm thinking about picking it up myself for fun.
Speaker 2
They are going really well! I think you should get a guitar! It is so much fun!
Speaker 1
Yeah I might at some point. I have always wanted to play the guitar, but I have never pulled the trigger. Can you play any songs yet?
Speaker 2
I'm just learning all the different chords right now but I'm hoping to start learning songs in the next two weeks!
Speaker 1
Are you playing electric or acoustic guitar?
Speaker 2
Acoustic guitar right now but I would like to learn electric too! Which would you prefer?
Speaker 1
I listen to a lot of rock, so electric guitar for sure.
Speaker 2
That's super cool! I love rock music. Do you have a favorite band or artist?
Speaker 1
Probably Led Zeppelin. I am a big fan of the classic stuff, you?
Speaker 2
I like more modern rock definitely am more into bluesy grassroots type stuff. Maybe we could start a band!
Speaker 1
I'm down, what will our band's name be?
Speaker 2
I think we should be called "The Guitar Heroes"! What do you think?

Speaker 1
Did you and your daughter get to go to the beach today?
Speaker 2
Yeah, it's pretty cloudy but they decided to go down anyway and make the most of it.  I'm sure with the holiday it must be packed though.
Speaker 1
Here's hoping the clouds keep a few people away.  I think one plus with the 4th of July is a lot of people might be heading to some firework displays away from the beach?  
Speaker 2
Yeah, they're not in an area where they do fireworks over the water so hopefully where they're at it's not packed.  How have you been spending your summer vacation?
Speaker 1
It's been pretty good.  Just recently I was getting everything ready for my trip to California.  I also found out that a Zeppelin cover band is going to be performing near my hotel while I'm in town!
Speaker 2
Nice, how long are you visiting for?  Hopefully the weather is good for you.
Speaker 1
It was going to be for a week, but I was able to get it to a week-and-a-half.  The last three days will be like a true vacation!  The weather looked pretty good for the week ahead, but you never know!
Speaker 2
So the first week will be jam packed and the last three days will be dedicated to relaxing?  That's definitely a good plan.  Sometimes vacations can be so jam packed you need a vacation to recover from vacation.lol
Speaker 1
LOL.  I bet I will get some down-time during the business portion as well.  Sometimes there is one or two serious meetings and the rest is wining and dining!
Speaker 2
I hope the wine is grape juice since you're still in grade school.lol  
Speaker 1
LOL.  Well, Year 9 is a step above that, but you know I like being silly.  It's a phrase my dad loves using all the time.  I guess it's his way of saying "it's ok to get knackered!"
Speaker 2
The drinking age is lower in the UK than it is here in the states, right?  It's 21 here.
