We have another incredible guest, one whom my wife has called a friend for over a decade, Masha (Maria) "Bubbles". She has travelled to over twenty different countries from Switzerland in the mountains, to Japan in the city. She tells about her experience learning English and its usefulness, as well as her reviews of fancy restaurants and which countries are her favorites.
Idioms used:
In for a penny, in for a pound = once you've invested something, you want to see it through to the end.
Chip off the old block = You're very similar to someone, especially a parent or relative.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you = The Golden Rule of Christ and Kant's basis for his philosophy; be nice to people and they'll be nice to you.
Other words used:
Hype = when everyone claims that something is amazing; normally it turns out to be disappointing.
Obsequious = when someone acts like a servant for you.
Equality = having the same terms as everyone.
