I’ve been doing a lot of dabbling in various languages over the past few months, and I’ve really learned a lot. I’d be lying if I said I regretted it because I quite enjoy having a broad pool of knowledge (though in some parts it’s incredibly shallow) to draw from. Languages are living things which … Fortsätt läsa For the love of words
Over the past few months, I’ve lost my way a bit when it comes to language learning. I’ve been jumping around from project to project like a madman, never really getting anywhere with anything. But I do love a good dabble, and although I’ve not really attained any sort of deep knowledge about any particular … Fortsätt läsa Dabbling on the Livonian coast
Kia ora koutou! Kei te pēhea koutou? Ko Den Språkliga Skatan ahau. Ko wai ō koutou ingoa? Nō Ingaranga ahau. Nō hea koutou? He iti tōku reo Māori. Kei te ako au i te reo Māori.

As … Fortsätt läsa Stock taking & goal setting
Well, who could have believed that we'd be back here again? It honestly doesn't feel like it's been a whole year since my last Eurovision write-up, but this week all eyes have been glued on Tel Aviv. As usual I'm going to go through ten performances that I liked - either from the semifinals or … Fortsätt läsa Eurovision Song Contest 2019
Denna veckan har jag varit ledig från jobbet. Planen var att jag skulle åka utomlands, men efter en titt på min privatekonomi var det ett klart tecken på att det var ingen idé. Så jag bestämde mig för att bara ta lite tid för mig själv och öva lite self-care. Efter tre dagar så började … Fortsätt läsa En kort resa in i spanskan
Merry April, dear readers! This month, I’ll admit, I was struggling a little for ideas. My language learning progress has been minimal at best and I haven’t really done anything exciting travel-wise.

Most of you who are active in the language learner … Fortsätt läsa Eyes front, soldier!
