The best way to learn a language is to immerse yourself in it.

Listen to English TV programs, English radio, read English books, go to English seminars, make friends who speak English, take a class or go on vacation in an English speaking country.

學習語言最好的方式是讓自己融入其中。看英文節目、聽廣播、閱讀、參加英文座談、與會講英文的人交朋友、到英語系國家進修或渡假。

Afraid to do that? Don’t know where to start? I’ve found a way to help you with that. Be one of 3 or 4 people spending a week with me in Canada. 

猶豫嗎？不知道如何開始嗎？這裡有個好方法！我將召集三到四個人跟我到加拿大一週。

See the sights in Vancouver, eat, shop, bicycle through Stanley Park, play Frisbee golf, relax and enjoy Canada while speaking English the whole time! Let me be your teacher while you practice your English in an English environment as I take you around Vancouver. Stay at Phoebe and my house in Canada. It’s in a beautiful little neighborhood in downtown Vancouver. It’s walking distance to the downtown core, less than ten minutes walk to Chinatown (in case you miss Chinese food), it’s on the Vancouver bike path and minutes from several ESL schools by foot or by bike.

看看溫哥華的風景、嚐嚐道地的美食、購物、騎腳踏車、玩飛盤高爾夫、放鬆、享受、並且全程說英語。我既是你的英語家教、同時也是你的導遊。而居住地點，就是我跟嘉千在溫哥華的家。宜人舒適的環境，步行即可達市中心，十分鐘內就能走到中國城(這樣就不必擔心懷念家鄉味了)。另外，房子就位於四通八達的自行車道旁，鄰近還有數所語言中心。

I can spend a week showing you around Vancouver (maybe even go to Whistler mountain if you’re good), making you at home and comfortable with the surroundings. Remember, we’ll be speaking in English for the whole week! You won’t be able to escape English and you can enjoy the feeling of living abroad in an English speaking environment.

我會親自陪各位一個星期熟悉環境、適應國外生活、認識美麗的溫哥華(如果想滑雪的人，我們還可以到惠斯勒渡假勝地)。在這一個禮拜的時間，我們全程說英文，走到哪說到哪，讓你自然而然融入全英語環境中。

At the end of the week I’ll have to go back to Taiwan but my friend Brian will be living in the house so you don’t have to feel abandoned if you want to stay for another week.

一週後我會回台灣。可是別擔心，我的好朋友布萊恩就住在屋子裡，他會接替我照顧各位。

 There is a cute little coffee shop a two minute walk away with great coffee and breakfast treats (including great French toast!) The neighbors often sit at the tables out front and talk to one another (even more chances to practice your English).

Less than a minute walk in the other direction is an Italian grocery store which makes the best sandwiches you can find (Cheap!) and they have everything you might need. The house has a kitchen if you want to save money and cook for yourself. Chinatown is three blocks down the street if you get homesick; but don’t spend too much time there coz you should be improving your English; not speaking Chinese.

住宿地點不遠處有一家可愛的咖啡店，這裡的咖啡與早餐超讚(我推薦法式吐司)！可愛的鄰居們喜歡坐在店門口，邊吃邊聊天(別錯過跟他們練習英文的機會)。另外一頭還有間義大利雜貨店，他們做的三明治既好吃又便宜！店裡賣的東西琳瑯滿目，應有盡有。如果你想省錢，也歡迎使用我家的廚房自己煮。真的想家時，還可以走到三條街外的中國城打牙祭。不過，別常去中國城，否則英文學不好，廣東國語反而溜了。

I’ll go back to Taiwan to film my show but will be back a week later so if you want to do another week of English immersion touring with me again then just stay the whole month! We’d love to have you as it should be a lot of fun and a great way to learn English.

陪伴各位一週後，我得回台灣製作電視節目，可是一個星期之後，我會再回到溫哥華。如果各位還樂意跟我到處逛，那就待久一點！非常歡迎大家把握這個機會，快樂、有效的學英文。

If you happen to fall in love while on vacation staying at our house in Vancouver or end up getting an incredible job there or in Taiwan after returning, because of this trip; then you can put your story up on my blog page (once I figure out how to make a blog.)

你很有可能在這趟旅程愛上加拿大、或是因為這樣的出國機會，增添人生的樂趣與未來工作的競爭力，我鼓勵各位在我的部落格上分享故事。(不過我得先學會經營我的部落格)

Maybe, later on, I’ll bring people to Quebec to visit my parents house on the lake. Let me know if you would be interested in that trip too and I’ll try begging my parents for you.

不久之後，我還可能帶各位到魁北克，造訪我爸媽在湖邊的老家。如果你對這個行程有興趣，也歡迎留言，我會想辦法說服我爸媽。
