Story Transcript:

Ca: Jordi camina per la Rambla.
En: Jordi walks down the Rambla.

Ca: Els intèrprets de carrer intenten aturar-lo, però ell vol comprar un record per a la seva mare.
En: The street performers try to stop him, but he wants to buy a souvenir for his mother.

Ca: La Rambla és una avinguda molt transitada, plena de gent de tot el món.
En: La Rambla is a very busy avenue, full of people from all over the world.

Ca: Jordi busca una botiga de records per a la seva mare, però no en troba cap.
En: Jordi looks for a souvenir shop for his mother, but can't find one.

Ca: Finalment, veu una botiga de records i entra.
En: Finally, he sees a souvenir shop and enters.

Ca: El propietari li ofereix diversos records, però Jordi no pot decidir-se.
En: The owner offers him several souvenirs, but Jordi can't decide.

Ca: La botiga està plena de postals, imants i somriures de la ciutat.
En: The shop is full of postcards, magnets and smiles from the city.

Ca: Jordi veu un imant amb forma de gat, i decideix comprar-lo per a la seva mare.
En: Jordi sees a magnet in the shape of a cat, and decides to buy it for his mother.

Ca: Quan està a punt de sortir de la botiga, una intèrpret de carrer s'acosta a ell i li pregunta si vol escoltar música.
En: As he is about to leave the store, a street performer approaches him and asks if he wants to listen to music.

Ca: Jordi respon que no i segueix caminant.
En: Jordi says no and keeps walking.

Ca: De sobte, una mà estira la seva samarreta.
En: Suddenly, a hand tugs at his shirt.

Ca: Jordi es gira i veu que un altre intèrpret de carrer li ofereix un espectacle de música.
En: Jordi turns around and sees that another street performer is offering him a music show.

Ca: Jordi diu que no i intenta caminar més ràpid.
En: Jordi says no and tries to walk faster.

Ca: Però mentre intenta esquivar els intèrprets de carrer, Jordi es perd.
En: But while trying to avoid the street performers, Jordi gets lost.

Ca: No sap on és i es posa nerviós.
En: He doesn't know where he is and gets nervous.

Ca: Veig la botiga de records a la distància i corre cap al lloc.
En: I see the souvenir shop in the distance and run towards the place.

Ca: Finalment, arriba a la botiga de records de nou i compra l'imant amb forma de gat per a la seva mare.
En: Finally, he reaches the souvenir shop again and buys the cat magnet for his mother.

Ca: Se'n va content, sentint-se molt lleuger.
En: He left happy, feeling very light.

Ca: La Rambla és un lloc animat i ple de vida, i Jordi està content de trobar el regal perfecte per a la seva mare.
En: La Rambla is a lively place full of life, and Jordi is happy to find the perfect gift for his mother.

Ca: Així, gràcies a la seva perseverança i paciència, Jordi aconsegueix comprar un record meravellós per a la seva mare i esquivar els intèrprets de carrer avorrits.
En: Thus, thanks to his perseverance and patience, Jordi manages to buy a wonderful souvenir for his mother and avoid the boring street performers.
