Episode 06 is a long chat with Glen, an expat from Australia, who has lived in Ho Chi Minh City since 2012. Glen was recently married to his girlfriend, Hang, who was also sitting with us during the recording of this interview.
Glen is our first Australian guest, which will give you a great opportunity to listen to the Australian English accent. It is also our first alcohol episode, which means we spoke a bit more informally with each other. This is great for high-level students who want experience listening to two native speakers talking to each other.
Among other conversations, Glen tells us about his move to Vietnam, riding motorbikes, drinking coffee and what it’s like to work in a Vietnamese company. There are quite a few funny stories mixed into this 47+ minute interview.
All topics:
*How he came to Vietnam as a student
*The day he left Australia
*The day he arrived in HCMC
*His thoughts on motorbikes
*University life in Australia v. Vietnam
*Vietnamese Coffee
*Communication and the working life
*Getting married in Vietnam

Enjoy!
