Getting to know someone, part one.
Getting to know someone.
Hi, what are you doing?
Omar, just reading the news before the class starts.
How are you?
OK, thanks, a little sunburnt, as you can see.
Did you enjoy yourself during the weekend?
Yeah, I went kayaking with my friends.
Kayaking.
That's so cool.
It's a hobby of mine.
I don't always have time for it, but I try to get back into it when the days of warm.
So how did it all come about?
My cousin Gary introduced me to kayaking probably five years ago.
He's doing it semi professionally, so he knows quite a bit about it.
It must be nice to have someone who can guide you.
True, true, you can always find stuff online, but I prefer getting tips first hand.
I see, so do you have your own kayak or what?
No, I usually hire it, I live in a dorm and my family is in another state, so I don't have the storage
space for it.
Yeah, that makes sense.
Is it expensive?
About 50 dollars a day.
That doesn't sound that bad.
It's totally worth it.
