Mel: So, Doron, what did you do last Valentine's Day?


Doron: Last Valentine's day I got disappointed 1 I think, 'cause I teach at university, and I'd heard that Japanese students always give their teachers loads and loads of chocolate, and even though it was my fifth year, and every other year I only got like two or three, I was still really excited 'cause I'm at university now and I got two chocolate bars.


Mel: Oh, really?


Doron: How, about you? Are you looking forward to it this year?


Mel: I'm planning on going to Korea 2 with my co-workers to escape the Valentine's Day.


Doron: To escape?


Mel: Atmosphere, yes.


Doron: You're not a fan then?


Mel: I like Valentine's Day, but I don't plan on celebrating it this year. Is Valentine's Day big in England?


Doron: I haven't lived in England for awhile now, about ten years. When I was a kid it was big in school, like in junior school, and we used to have a little Valentine's post box in your class where you could write little messages to your classmates and then you put it in the box and it'd get delivered.


Mel: Oh, in a box?


Doron: Yeah, in a little Valentine's post box.


Mel: Oh, cool.


Doron: The teacher would deliver them.


Mel: Did you only get notes or did you get candy as well?


Doron: No, it was just notes. In England we don't really give candy and chocolate and presents to people. We just give letters, unless it's like a boyfriend or a girlfriend or something. But when you are seven, you don't really bother.


Mel: Well, the thing I liked about Valentine's Day as a kid was that you'd get Valentine's Day cards from everyone, but I was always curious to see what the boy I liked wrote to me.


Doron: Did you know who wrote what to you?


Mel: Yeah, they would sign their name on the card.


Doron: What? They sign names?


Mel: Yeah, it'd be like. Happy Valentine's Day, Adam.


Doron: Oh, in England I don't think you don't put your name. Even if you know who it's from. You know it's from your girlfriend, or your best friend, or your grandma, or something, I think you just put a big question mark.


Mel: Really?


Doron: It's half the fun. You have to figure it out.


Mel: But my favorite Valentine's Day gift is always from my mom.


Doron: She gives you a gift every year?


Mel: Yeah, she'll send me gifts in the mail, and when I was in elementary school, she would hide chocolates and stuff 3 in my desk. It was awesome 4.


Doron: That's brilliant.


Mel: Yeah.


Doron: I don't remember getting any really, really cool Valentine's presents. I remember giving a couple. I was dating a girl who lived in Norway when I was at university in England and so for Valentine's Day it was the same ... I think her birthday was February the 11th or something.


Mel: Oh, yeah.


Doron: So, I just flew over. I e-mailed like her best friend who I knew quite well as well and he picked me up at the airport I and flew over to Norway.


Mel: Yeah.


Doron: And in Norway, it's a very safe country, so they don't really lock their doors (a bit like Japan) and he just drove 5 me down to the house and I walked in at like nine in the morning, and she just came down stairs and she nearly died. She thought I was a ghost.


Mel: Yeah. That would be scary 6 but fun.


Doron: Scary but fun. That's what she said, when she could talk.


Mel: Yeah, so it was a double birthday, Valentine's Day gift.


Doron: Exactly.


Mel: Awesome
