TQ 069 Mel from England

Mel is from the Isle of Wight, which is a small island off the southern coast of England. After she finished her studies in chemistry she started traveling. Her main form of transportation is hitchhiking and she often stays with people on couchsurfing.org. Listen as we talk about the novel "Moby Dick" by Herman Melville, the Brexit, and as she says that she is uncomfortable with being comfortable!

Note: In this interview I spell the word "carnival" wrong. However, I looked it up, and discovered that I had spelled it correctly . . . in Portuguese.

Note, again: She mentioned Costa Rica a couple of times. She did this because I had told her that as far as I know, the person who has listened to my podcast the longest is in Costa Rica. This is for you, professor!

Here are some words that we use that you may not know: pier, arcade, hence, to portray, canyon, frugal, dual, carnival, lent.
