    Todd: OK, hello!
    Sarah: Hello!
    Todd: Hi, what's your name?
    Sarah: My name is Sarah.
    Todd: OK, and Sarah where are you from?
    Sarah: I'm from the north of England, Newcastle.
    Todd: OK, so Newcastle, how far is that from London?
    Sarah: Um, it's about 300 miles.
    Todd: Uh-huh, do you go to London a lot or have you been to London before?
    Sarah: I live in London. I've lived in London for the past seven years.
    Todd: Oh, really?
    Sarah: Almost seven years, yeah.
    Todd: OK. Which do you prefer, London or Newcastle?
    Sarah: Um, like them both. I prefer Newcastle because it's smaller, so it's easier to get around and it's also cheaper. London is very expensive.
    Todd: So all your family is in Newcastle?
    Sarah: Um, pretty much yeah.
    Todd: So are they always trying to get you to go back and move back to Newcastle?
    Sarah: Ah, no, no, because most of the jobs are in the south, anyway for younger people so it's quite difficult to get a job in the north in teaching.
    Todd: OK. Um, what do you like about London?
    Sarah: Ah, it's a very busy place, there's lots of things going on all the time. There's also lots of things I don't like about London, but all my friends live there lots of job opportunities.
    Todd: OK, what were you doing before you came to Japan in London?
    Sarah: Ah, I was in Austria for a year. I was teaching in Austria, and then I was in London teaching, in London for a few years.
    Todd: What were you teaching in London?
    Sarah: I was teaching primary school. I was a primary school teacher.
    Todd: Kids!
    Sarah: Yeah.
    Todd: So what's it like teaching kids?
    Sarah: Um, tiring. Very tiring. I prefer teaching adults. That's my preference. I've mainly taught adults in TEFL, but in the state system in England it's only been children. It's fun. It's just very tiring.
