  • Hello Everybody my name is Steve Ford and welcome to How to Speak English Challenge 6

  • So let's go and talk about those vacation packages

  • Everybody wants to travel, everybody loves to travel, everybody wants to travel the world

  • so when you go on a shopping spree, that means when you want to splurge, you want to spend a lot of money

  • on your shopping, we say that you shop until you drop

  • this means that you shop as much as you can, spend as much as you can, carry as much as you can

  • until you can't shop anymore and whether you're shopping for clothes, smartphones, laptops, perfume, alcohol

  • you want to do some shopping around and shopping around means that you want to compare prices

  • between one store and another

  • now some people may be shopaholics

  • you might know the word alcoholic, somebody who is addicted to alcohol

  • but a shopaholic is somebody who can't stop shopping

  • and I hear stories from my students that shopaholics do exist

  • some people who spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars on shopping

  • and when they get their credit card bill, they're like, "oh my God" , they get a shopping hangover

  • now the opposite to a shopaholic would be someone who's a bargain hunter

  • they're a little bit more tight with their money which means that they are spending their money the best way possible

  • if you don't want to spend any money, of course you can go window shopping

  • this just means that you're looking

  • another great vacation package is a historical vacation package that's for all of you people

  • who are very curious and want to know more about world history, you wanna see it up close

  • when people go and see megalithic structures like the pyramids, something like that can be very breathtaking

  • you go to Machu Picchu and it's just stunning

  • stunning or when you feel stunned means that you feel very very amazed

  • your mind stops in amazement

  • now many people, when they go to these historical places find it very intriguing

  • how the heck did they build those things thousands of years ago?

  • intriguing means that it stimulates your curiosity

  • so intriguing is very curious

  • you want to know more and a more informal way of saying that is

  • things that make you go hmmm

  • you don't know how those things were built, but you want to investigate more

  • things that make you go hmmm

  • next we have adventure vacations

  • this is for people who want to take a walk on the wild side

  • to take a walk on the wild side means that normally in your day-to-day living you do boring and monotonous things

  • they're repetitive, it's a routine

  • so when you take a walk on the wild side, you step out of that routine and you do something radically different

  • and there is no better way to do that than on an adventure or sports vacation

  • OK our last one is getaway vacations

  • and get away means exactly that

  • it's a way for people to escape from their stressful lives

  • from the long winter months so that they can go somewhere nice and chill out

  • and to chill out means to relax, so it's a relaxing vacation quite often at the beach

  • warm weather, take a dip in the ocean and just chill out

  • during a get away vacation, a lot of people can put their feet up

  • to put your feet up means exactly that

  • it means sit down and put your feet up so that you can relax

  • Well everybody, I've given you 4 different types of vacations

  • which one would you prefer to take and why?

  • please leave your comments below and I look forward to reading them

  • Bye for now!

  • Getway vacations, a great chance for people to literally get away or escape from their stressful lives, from the wintertime, from Thor!!!!!

  • Thor, you are the only cat who has not entered into one of my videos

  • Thor if you come out here, you're coming in the video

  • I'm waintin' for ya Thor

  • Nobody's ever seen Thor!

  • This is Thor, say hello Thor!

  • This is the troublemaker
