In this episode, I slow down and talk about something many of us experience every day - the commute.
It might seem boring at first: the same train or bus, the same journey, the same faces.
But if you look closely, it’s more than that.
I share how I sometimes watch the people around me and imagine what their lives are like - where they’re going, what they’re thinking, who they’re texting.
Even though we never speak, there’s an odd feeling of connection.
We’re all just strangers on the same journey, with our own dreams, problems, and routines.
If you’ve ever looked around on a train or bus and started to wonder who the other passengers really are… this episode is for you.

🧠 You Will Learn:
Vocabulary: Transport & Daily Routine, Sounds & Movement, Everyday Phrasal Verbs, Work & Daily Life
Grammar: Modals for possibility (might, could, may), Intensifiers (really, a bit, so)
