   We have some very, very exciting new at Culips: We’ve added a new co-host to our team! Now, along with Maura and Harp 1, you’ll hear Andrew’s voice too. He’s got lots of experience and training in teaching 2 languages, and he’s travelled a bunch too! He’s also got experience learning 3 Korean, German, and now French; the perfect recipe for a great language teacher. In this episode 4, Maura interviews Andrew so you can get to know what he’s all about, and he’ll be back as a co-host in the future!


  Maura:What was it like growing up in Kelowna? I know I’m from Ontario, which doesn’t have mountains and is a little bit more flat, and I’m always jealous 5 of people who are from the West Coast and have beautiful natural scenes around them.
  Andrew:Yeah, absolutely. Well, the nice thing about Kelowna is the four seasons, I think. We have summer, a beautiful long summer, and the winter. It’s fairly grey in the winter but it’s not too cold, which is nice. And of course there’s skiing, lots of mountains. And I’m a big snowboarder, so, yeah, it was great for that.
  Maura:Yeah. That’s something that I think a lot of people maybe don’t know; that there are parts of Canada where the winter isn’t that bad.
  Andrew:Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think the coldest it would get in Kelowna during the winter is maybe minus 10. So it’s not that bad in Kelowna. And then in the summer it’s… Yeah, it’s really warm.
  Maura:Yeah. Minus ten. It seems not bad at all, actually.
