Zabanshenash Talk Show

Host: Hello everyone! Welcome to Zabanshenas talk show! I’m so excited for our guest today! Hasti is an inspirational Persian girl who will be sharing her experience of immigrating to Australia with us… & I can’t tell you how excited I am for you guys to meet her and the conversation we’ll get to have today! So Ladies and gentlemen without further ado…. please welcome Hasti!

Hasti: Hi Luna! I’m so glad to be here. Thank you so much for inviting me! And hello to everyone out there, I hope that you enjoy this episode!

Host: Hasti I’m so happy you’re here! So, let’s get straight to the questions. First of all, can you tell us how long have you been living in Australia for?

Hasti: Well I have been living in Melbourne for a year and a half now but I have never been to Sydney or any other cities of Australia. That also means that I haven’t visited the Opera house, which is such a shame!

Host: Are there any special places that you’ve visited in Melbourne???

Hasti: oh yeah! I’ve been to quite a few places actually… I’ve gone to Luna park and the Aquarium as well as Melbourne Zoo. I have also visited the University of Melbourne and La Lrobe University on their Open Day to see what universities are like in Melbourne! Oh… in case you are wondering whether I’ve seen kangaroos or not…there’s this park near our house that we go to all the time and there’s just wild kangaroos hopping around.

Host: I hope I can go there one day!!! Hasti, how has life in Australia been so far?

Hasti: Oh well it’s kinda hard for me to answer that question! So I have found so many new friends at school who are loving and supportive. I have also just started working at McDonald’s or as we would call it here (Macca’s)! And so I have developed as a young individual through the experiences that I have had so far… but sadly, there have been some difficulties coming along with all these great things.

Host: As you are away from home, have you ever felt lonely?

Hasti: Yes, I’ve been feeling quite homesick recently, and I’ve been missing my family and friends in Iran.

Host: oh… this must be a bit hard for you…! And, I know that you are studying at an Australian school right now…Is it a good record?

Hasti: Yeah, I would most certainly say that going to school here is the most amazing part of my life in Australia… I have been learning so many new things that I don’t think I would ever learn without going to my school.

Host: Have you ever had any language challenges as a foreigner?

Hasti: Well because I had studied English before my immigration… I actually had no problems in becoming fluent after going to school here, but I’ve always been trying to improve and challenge myself to learn more because , you know, the learning process never ends!

Host: Yes, that’s right… OK, I think that’s all for today…. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences Hasti…

Hasti: Well, thank YOU for inviting me! Bye for now…

Host: So see you next time right here on Zabanshenas talk show.
