Episode 5 - Paganism and my experience living within a pagan community in England
The British English Language PodcastShow Notes
During this episode you are going to learn about the elements that make up this ancient and mysterious spiritual movement. I spent 18 months, during 2019-2020, living within a pagan community in England. I share my experiences with you during this episode and describe some of the values I share with this interesting religion/way of life. This episode contains more advanced content as I thought it would be good to challenge you and teach you lots of new vocabulary ! A podcast for intermediate level learners with a free downloadable text version available at www.britishenglishlanguage.com ! Thank you, enjoy !

Following the death of the queen’s husband, Prince Philip, His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh, my two friends and I have an informal chat about what this news means to us individually. Some people adore the Royal Family and some people feel differently, and an event as significant as this one can be a good opportunity to ask ourselves how we feel about the Monarchy and realise our personal values as human beings.
