Racism At Work. What Should I Do?
Learn Australian English in this
Advanced English Listening Skills Practice Lesson!

In today's episode...
G’day legends! In this episode, we’re buzzing with excitement as we celebrate Raquel, my amazing wife’s, official Aussie citizenship! Buckle up for a fun-filled ride as I chat about her journey, answer your burning questions straight from Instagram, and share some juicy insights into life Down Under.
Ever felt lost in translation after migrating? I’ve got your back! Tune in for tips on navigating communication hurdles and embracing the unique Aussie lingo. You’ll also discover the hilarious meaning behind “chill the beans” and why “I didn’t come down in the last shower” isn’t what it seems!
Ever pondered your dream destination? I spill the beans (pun intended!) on where I’d explore if Australia wasn’t my home. Plus, we tackle real-life challenges: facing racism at work (can you report it to HR?), and uncovering the diverse tapestry of languages spoken in Aussie households today.
This episode is packed with laughs, practical advice, and a glimpse into the joys and complexities of migrant life. So, grab your favorite bevvy, crank up the volume, and let’s dive into the Aussie spirit!
