hi everyone my name is Kali and today I'm going to talk about my first week here in Scotland first I'm sorry for any English mistakes and I hope that english-speaking persons will be able to understand me as some of you may already know I'm French I live in France and I'm currently in Scotland it's an internship until June about this title I decided to change it from my first week in Glasgow to my first week in Scotland because I work in Glasgow for my internship but I also work in basely and I live in Paisley which is a city next to Glasgow so it made more sense to just say in Scotland so let's talk about all the funny things that happened to me during that first week so the first thing you need to know about me is that I'm a very very very clumsy person and that first week just proved it so the first thing that happened to me was at the airport I had to go through the Kirsten's and so I had all my alligator of me and give my ID to the man and he looks at it and gives it back to me and so he says he's messy while giving it back to me a witness thank you in French and I was so surprised that he would know French or them speak French me that's my elbow bound into my suitcase and he just fall so I had to be heated up and then I have to take all my stuff and I was like sorry sorry because I was taking so much time because I have to pee it up and everything and they take everything and go in the opposite way from where I was supposed to go so they might have to call me and say no no please place this way this way and I was like oh my god oh I'm sorry I'm sorry and I just repeated I'm sorry like thousands of time because I was just feeling so alone and everyone around was looking at me and I was like I want to disappear just I'm sorry goodbye yeah loneliness II know and I know that I I went to a restaurant to order fish and chips that will take away because you know when you're in the UK just try fish and chips so I went to the restaurant ordered yes and I had to pay and I just opened my wallet in front of me and the woman told me something that I didn't understand so I made her repeat but to understand what she was saying I thought it would be better to be closer to her but being a closer I just burst my wallet and all my little coins just were peeled everywhere like on the floor everywhere and I had to just beat it up and say sorry sorry sorry and I felt so alone and so stupid and people who are looking at me like what is she doing like she's taking so much time we're hungry right now and it was like just I'm sorry I'm sorry it's just me me and me you know I also have a kind of brain problem I don't know what is this but I can speak French out of nowhere in an English sentence but without thinking about it so one morning my colleague comes and I just say salut to her instead of high because salary is high in French but it was just so weird why would I say salary to her she's not friend she won't understand and so fortunately for me she had her earphones so she didn't hear me I hope but yeah just sorry I don't know why I did that another day my other colleague asked me do you have a moment and I didn't understand the word moment and instead of saying can you repeat whatever I said do I have a what but instead of saying do I have a what I said do I have a quad quad is what in French why do I say or instead of what I don't know so he just looked at me what I was like I don't have what I just like moment I was like oh yeah I do so weird I with that same colleague another day he comes up me and asked me something about a video like how many things I should put on it or I don't really remember but i just remember that i answered i think quarter of them will be geared what cat in French is for but I just say cat but with English accent in the middle of nowhere so just quarter of them you just looked at me once again see what I was like four four and he said oh yeah four okay great it was like great now let's talk about of things that surprised me here the first thing that surprised me here was over injuries I was doing some shopping to buy food and as I was at the hotel I couldn't take anything that comes on the fridge because I obviously did not have one so I went to get over enjoys for my breakfast but about all that doesn't need to be kept a fridge in college process right now and this orange is dead she don't keep in the fridge here you have to mix it with water before drinking it and I have no idea it exists at it because for what I know are in France even if your dress doesn't go on the fridge you just have to pour it in your glass and drink it like this you don't have to mix it with water so it's like what is that so I tried and it's just that it has more the taste of the water that really arrangers but as it works speaking about breakfast I can't not tell you about the difference between French breakfast and Scottish breakfast so in France I usually eat sugar based products for breakfast like um fruits cereal or injures and in Scotland here is my first breakfast I have here and it was so so good and I can't tell which one i prefeer because I love both but just try this because it's so good another thing that surprised me about food is how much salt they put in the fish and chips like it tastes so good very good but they put so much out and I was like the woman asked me if I wanted salt and yeah of course I want some because I like cells even it's not real good for your health I like it but just a little bit to make it a kid but not too bad for your health and the woman had this old and she just I was like okay I think that's enough and just like I was like what stop place that's too much and she gave me the fish and chips I tried it and ate it it was very good but all the afternoon I had to go and drink water because I was so thirsty and it was very good like salt didn't make it bad but it's just that it was a lot you know and okay well it was good so why not the last thing that surprised me here is the weather like before I got here everyone in the pros would tell me about how I will never see the Sun in four month in Scotland it's concerning it always raised let me tell you something that's not true in Scotland it can hail to the morning I went to get my Scottish burgers that he so it started to hail and it was very weird because the weather will change every 30 minutes to one hour of time because of the wind that was bringing clouds and then pushing them back so would be sunny Iranian sunny Iranian and at one time it started hailing and as I'm related a French person not used to it I went to Starbridge because he it would cut my face and cut my hands so I was under my breasts like this and people would just walk under the hail like they didn't care because their Scottish people's obviously used it but it was just like I can do this I'm just waiting for the Sun right now and fortunately for me it came back really fast because of the wind but yeah that was crazy and actually Scottish people who told me that they weren't used to that weather champions like this and it was a crazy wake and last but not least I want to tell you about how Scottish people surely are nice and friendly and everything you can hear about it that's something French people told me a lot before I come here is that Scottish people are known for being very friendly and helpful and indeed they are obviously not all of them are as like in France not all of the French people complain all the time but a lot of Scottish people are very nice I'm very grateful for that because they helped me to feel at home really fast here so yeah I'm very grateful for this kindness they naturally have I also met a Scottish girl in the Airbnb I was staying in and we became friends superfast and Morphin if you're watching this video you already know that but I'm very grateful for what it is for me because she helped me feel at home really fast here in basely she made me discover foot specialties like dirty scones and tea cakes which are very very good and it's funny because she wants to learn French so I teach her some French words and she teaches me some Scottish words and that's how I learned that he which means potato but I'm just going to use that here from now on because I just find it so icky it like it's a little tacky so this was my first week
