Topic:When is the best time to marry?

Hanna: Hi, I'm Hanna from Australia.

Diego: And I'm Diego from Mexico.

Hanna: And today we're asking the question when is the best time to marry? What do you think Diego?

Diego: I don't know. The question gives me the chills. I have no idea when I'm going to get married so I honestly have no clue. But in Mexico at least, people tend to get married before they are thirty and after they are twenty five so maybe twenty seven, twenty eight would be the average today.

Hanna: Oh really, that's quite early.

Diego: Really.

Hanna: In Australia people tend to get married quite late especially childbirth. Most people don't have their first child until around thirty five or forty.

Diego: Wow, that's really late for Mexicans.

Hanna: I'm not sure about marriage but I think if you're going to have children you should get married earlier because once you get a bit older biologically you're not really able to have children as well and you're not as fit as you used to be. So probably the same as you maybe twenty five or thirty.

Diego: Maybe. Yeah, I think so. I think that's the best age to get married.

Hanna: Yeah.
