Starting point is 00:03:37 to hear a an explanation in English as we begin this conversation Rory is asking Maria
Starting point is 00:03:47 what she wants to do after the summer because now she's finished her degree he's asking do you want
Starting point is 00:03:52 to do a master's but the fact is Maria has been so busy finishing her degree in art history and
Starting point is 00:03:59 thinking about summer that now the summer has finally arrived she doesn't really know what the next step
Starting point is 00:04:04 is now now She doesn't really see herself doing a master's. And indeed she thinks that the sign updates, the matriculation dates have already passed. She has got some money saved and she is probably thinking more along the lines of doing some traveling. There are lots of countries that she would like to visit. She mentions Mexico, Argentina, Peru, Bolivia. She's not quite sure where she wants to go. And of course, Rory kind of agrees with her.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Oh, man, no is a bad idea. In fact, he thinks traveling is the best thing that you can possibly do. It's the best school of all of the schools that exist. But he does wonder if she's forgot about him in all her plans. And of course, the answer to this is no. However, she does think that they can put up with not seeing each other for a few months if that needs to be the case. I see that we can
Starting point is 00:05:02 hangar without and also she reminds him that he's got his doctorate to think about in Scotland
Starting point is 00:05:09 Rory however is not quite sure if he is going to be able to afford it or indeed if he can

Starting point is 00:05:22 if he is spending so long under the water he will find his inspiration there
Starting point is 00:05:27 after all he is studying marine biology I think that Tantas hours
Starting point is 00:05:32 Bajo the help to find the inspiration Maria agrees
Starting point is 00:05:36 that the most difficult aspect is finding the money
Starting point is 00:05:40 and of course Rory feels that he is going to
Starting point is 00:05:42 work until he earns the necessary funds to do
Starting point is 00:05:47 his studies but they've got plenty of time to
Starting point is 00:05:49 think about all that they've got the whole summer ahead
Starting point is 00:05:51 of them they should perhaps just enjoy things and
Starting point is 00:05:54 enjoy their lives over the summer in the Sunshine
Starting point is 00:05:57 of says, and indeed Rory likes this philosophy. Then Maria asks Rory when Alejandro is coming, and in fact he is going to be arriving the following week, and he's staying for six days. Rory has told Alejandro that he needn't worry about accommodation, and he decides now to ask Maria if she thinks it would be a good idea that because Consuelo should try and find him somewhere to stay. Maria doesn't think it should be a problem. She says that she's sure that Consuelo will find a, well, literally she says she's sure. She's sure. that Consuelo will find a hole.
Starting point is 00:06:32 A place for him to stay a hole. And yes, they'll get something sorted out. Yeah, we'll arreglaremos. I like that word. Yeah, we'll fix it. We will sort it out. Yeah, it will arreglaremos. Del verbo, arreglare.
