Interview

I did an interview with Bob. He grew up Argentina. There he had a very close bond of friends which he knew since he was little. In school, he stayed with the same class throughout all of the years. His hobbies included playing soccer, doing BMX biking, and sitting on sidewalks watching people and drinking 2 liter coke bottles with friends. His family had two dogs: husky and German Shepard. He also mentioned having another dog, which he could not remember very well since it died when he was little.
Bob moved to the United States when he was a freshmen in high school. When I asked him about his first impression when he first moved here, I could see that he hated it at first. From his words, "I got into a lot of fights my first year in school," one can see that transitioning cultures was not an easy thing to do. Main thing that he did not like about the US, was that friendships seemed to be very superficial. He said that he studied "formal" British English in Argentina. When he moved to the US what helped him a lot was listening to people speak. Up to this point, he has no idea how he learned English.
