"나도 그래.En: Then she looked at him seriously and said, "I feel the same.Ko: 하지만 우리가 서로 믿고 노력하면 괜찮을 거야."En: But if we trust each other and make an effort, we'll be fine."Ko: 진수는 고개를 끄덕였다.En: Jinsu nodded.Ko: "맞아.En: "You're right.Ko: 우린 조금 더 노력해야 해.En: We need to try a little harder.Ko: 서로에게 더 자주 연락하고, 감정을 숨기지 않는 거야."En: We need to contact each other more often and not hide our feelings."Ko: 희진은 손을 뻗어 진수의 손을 잡았다.En: Heejin reached out and took Jinsu's hand.Ko: "그래, 오빠.En: "Yes, 오빠.Ko: 나도 그렇게 할게."En: I'll do that too."Ko: 그 날 카페에서의 대화는 그들의 관계를 새로운 방향으로 이끌었다.En: The conversation in the cafe that day led their relationship in a new direction.Ko: 진수는 그녀에게 마음을 열었고 희진은 그의 손을 놓지 않겠다고 다짐했다.En: Jinsu opened his heart to her, and Heejin vowed not to let go of his hand.Ko: 서로의 마음을 더 잘 이해하게 됐고, 둘 다 더 희망적인 마음을 갖게 되었다.En: They came to understand each other's feelings better, and both felt more hopeful.Ko: 카페 밖으로 나왔을 때, 가을의 쌀쌀한 바람이 두 사람을 감쌌다.En: As they stepped out of the cafe, the chilly autumn wind embraced them.Ko: 함께 걸어가는 길에는 낙엽의 부드러운 소리가 울렸다.En: The soft sound of leaves echoed on the path they walked together.Ko: 진수와 희진은 더 단단한 관계를 향해 한 걸음 더 나아가고 있었다.En: Jinsu and Heejin were taking a step further toward a stronger relationship.Ko: 그들의 사랑은 이제 찬란한 가을 속에서 다시 시작되고 있었다.En: Their love was now beginning anew amidst the brilliant autumn.

On this episode of Best Ever CRE, Joe Cornwell interviews Dani Beit-Or about his “get-rich-slow” approach to long-distance rental investing and how he started with a sight-unseen Phoenix purchase in 2002 before moving to the U.S. in 2004. He shares cycle-tested lessons from the 2008 crash, why boring, bread-and-butter single-family and small multis still win, and how to pick metros using fundamentals (jobs, demographics, landlord-friendly laws) instead of herd advice. Dani explains current plays to boost yield—mid-term rentals, selective discounts with builders, and the occasional VA-assumption/subject-to—and why today's mostly-normalized rates still leave a closing window for buyer leverage. He and Joe also unpack why information abundance removes the “I don't know how” excuse and how consistent process beats headlines.

Meet Tim,Who met his Mexican wife at work in the US, at the time none spoke each other's language, but still they pushed through one word at the time. His wife, who already had children back in Mexico, had to go back to take care of them, and that's when their 18 year long distance relationship started, with children that he did not see grow up. During those 18 years, Tim managed to go visit her in Mexico 3 times, this by walking, yes walking across the US, until he eventually moved full time to Acapulco a year ago. He's now discovered a completely different life, far from the confort and safety he knew in the US but will finally be present throughout his newborn's life.His recommendations:Sharon's Renacimento location https://www.sharons.mx/Song: El Pipazo de la Simon Bolivarhttps://youtube.com/watch?v=rX3ZgGhbEDc&si=1WKggaJedu1kKl3L Website: www.familyreunitenetwork.comAmazon Book: https://a.co/d/5TLZyhuInstagram: @familyreuniteFacebook: @tscottfamilyreuniteTiktok: @familyreuniteYoutube: @familyreuniteTo support the podcast: https://en.tipeee.com/meet-the-expatsHosted by Ausha.

In this episode of the Tough Girl Podcast, we're joined by Christine Reed—an American long-distance backpacker and award-winning author—whose life changed when she took her first steps on the Appalachian Trail in 2015. With no prior backpacking experience, Christine dove headfirst into the unknown, seeking healing, purpose, and a sense of identity. Since then, Christine has hiked thousands of miles, lived out of a van, and carved a creative path through storytelling. Her debut memoir, Alone in Wonderland, captured her raw and powerful journey of self-discovery, while her latest anthology Blood Sweat Tears amplifies the voices of women+ on trail—sharing unfiltered stories about periods, pain, perseverance, and everything in between. We talk about grief, growth, writing through discomfort, and the courage it takes to follow your passions even when they feel far outside your comfort zone. Christine's story reminds us that you don't have to be outdoorsy, athletic, or fearless to start—you just have to begin. *** New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)!
