FOODIE TEST!

I love feeding my friends. But before I indulge them, unfortunately, they need to do my Ultimate Foodie Challenge first.

What’s a #FOODIETEST?

They have to guess the names of the SNACKS I bought from various grocery shops in Adelaide, South Australia and they have to tell me the COUNTRIES where they originated from.

Easy-peasy?

Well, they have to be blindfolded while eating these snacks.

Guess the snack name, you get 1 point. Guess the country you get another point.

I brought my Spanish friend, Javier Jimenez Lerate (23 years old) to Chinatown in Adelaide to let him try Asian food (more specifically, Japanese food) for the very first time.

Javier is from Seville, Spain and is currently in Adelaide with a work visa.

In this vlog episode, Javier shared what is it like moving from one country to another, what are the differences between his hometown and Adelaide, and how does he usually spend his free time in this new city.

As it’s his first time eating Japanese food, will he like sushis and sashimis served with soya sauce and wasabi? Watch to find out.

Do you know that Australians call “afternoon” as “arvo,” “football” as “footy,” and “barbecue” as “barbie”? If you do, then good on ‘ya mate!

But what about these words: “woop woop,” “bogan,” and “sheila”? Do you know what they stand for? I bet you “defo” had a hard time.

I recently visited one of the first few mates I’ve made in Adelaide, Adam Cannella, who also runs his own gym and personal training (Adam – Movement Therapy) inside his own house. In our vlog challenge, Adam taught me some of the most commonly used Australian slangs while also teaching me some essential workout tips.

Hi there and thanks for visiting my channel! I’m Paolo Avis, founder of HeyPaolo.com, and I migrated to Adelaide, South Australia last March 2019.

Still fresh off the boat, I decided to create this lifestyle blog/vlog in order to help my fellow migrants to learn and discover what it is like living in this festival state and city of churches.

The next vlog episodes lined up in my channel will bring fun and exciting interviews with friends (featuring local Australians, foreigners, and migrants).

In this channel, I aim to provide migrant tips, to share local recommendations (e.g. restaurants, cafes, recreational spots, etc.), and to feature exclusive life stories of the people I meet.

I do hope you will take time to subscribe to my Youtube channel (click here) and I do hope you can also spread the word.

My aim is to help one person at a time and for everyone to see that it’s also fun living in Adelaide City!

See you around, boys and girls.

Cheers,

Paolo
