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
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
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
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

Well, it's finally here. The first of November. The day we've all been waiting for - the first day of Polyglot NaNoWriMo. First of all, I just want to say how absolutely blown away I've been by the amount of support and enthusiasm I've seen on both Twitter and Instagram about this challenge - for … Fortsätt läsa NaNoWriMo, here we go again
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
Tere-tere, kallid lugejad! Hello there, dear readers! It's always a pleasure to be back here with you. To be perfectly honest, though, I had absolutely no idea what I was going to write about today. I've been working full time (from home) throughout lockdown, and because of a huge increase in life admin, I've not … Fortsätt läsa Üks päev korraga
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
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
