¿A qué te dedicas ? un francés vs. un argentino

We’re speaking Spanish today, and you can find the transcription on my website Connect2languages.com where you can also find information about my language courses.Today, we’re gonna talk about a topic that I find deeply interesting. We’re gonna talk about how in France and in many other cultures I guess, we tend to put people in boxes. An example of it is our relationship with work and professional careers. In France, we tend to specialize in one field. We become experts in one field and according to the field you should project an image that matches that field.I’m saying, if you’re a serious journalist for Le Monde, this serious newspaper, it might come across as strange if you’re also a stand-up comedian. Dedicating your time in two different jobs or careers may even make you lose credibility in your Main occupation.Today, I want to talk about the fact that things are different in Argentina. You can have different jobs and dedicate time to various occupations and it’s actually valued. Experience matters, or should I say experiences matter.Let’s talk about that in my absolutely beautiful Spanish, that’s my British dark humour here, I’m not confident in Spanish anymore, so this podcast is a great way to challenge myself.
