So, one of my interests that I don’t talk about nearly often enough is reading. And that’s probably because I don’t do it nearly often enough. It’s hard to believe now that just over a decade ago (a truly terrifying thought in and of itself), I graduated with a BA in English Literature. I used … Fortsätt läsa Re-learning to love literature

One year and counting
So, I've got to say, as we approach the first anniversary of the first lockdown implemented to try and tackle the Covid-19 pandemic (or maybe we've already passed it - who knows, what is time anyway?)... I'm pretty done with all of this now. I'll admit that in the beginning, as an introvert, I quite … Fortsätt läsa One year and counting
Swedish books and where to find them
Well! February already! It feels like this year has been going on for at least five months already, but somehow I found myself surprised when the calendar ticked over to February - surely that can’t be right? But far be it from me to question the men and women in charge of time and keeping … Fortsätt läsa Swedish books and where to find them
Gobsmacked and goalless
If you’re anything like me and you like to keep abreast of the online world of language learning, you’ve probably read a lot of Tweets, Instagram posts and indeed blog posts about goals for the new year. I have, and you’re all such an inspiration to me that you’ve made me really reflect hard on … Fortsätt läsa Gobsmacked and goalless
Klara av kaoset
Denna månad blir det ett kanske lite kortare inlägg än vad ni är vana vid att läsa, eller jag är van vid att skriva. Det är väldigt mycket på gång i mitt liv just nu, och jag tänkte att ni nog skulle förlåta mig, speciellt eftersom att det kommer ett ganska stort projekt nästa månad … Fortsätt läsa Klara av kaoset
Goals for the year that wasn’t
Well, they say better late than never... it's no secret that this blog post was a bit of a rush at the last minute. I've been a little conspicuous only by my absence in the online language learning community as of late, but I promise I have a good reason. You often hear that buying … Fortsätt läsa Goals for the year that wasn’t
Getting to know you
Hello everyone! I wanted to do something a little bit different this month, and try and get to know you all a little better! Instead of doing a bog-standard post introducing myself, I took to Curious Cat to see if there was anything you guys were wondering about me… and boy, did you guys deliver! … Fortsätt läsa Getting to know you
Shine a Light
The Eurovision Song Contest is a staple of my year. I start looking forward to it in about November, after listening to the songs from previous years so much I start to get tired of them. But the excitement for the coming year fills me with a sense of nostalgia, so I can enjoy them … Fortsätt läsa Shine a Light
A promise to be kinder
So, I know that I mentioned it in passing in my last post, but I think it’s time to address the elephant in the room. If you’re reading this far in the future, then you might have heard about the Covid-19 pandemic. If you’re reading this on the day I publish this, then you’re probably … Fortsätt läsa A promise to be kinder
A General Update
This past month I've been so busy with work and other commitments that I've barely had any time for anything else. My language books have mostly been gathering dust, I haven't had time to even think about writing and even my Netflix account called the police remotely to carry out a welfare check. So to … Fortsätt läsa A General Update
