October 15th
Well my 2 weeks off has been and gone and I have returned to my morning routine of fighting for the shower, fighting to eat my breakfast whilst fighting with my 1 year old to get ready, all to get into the car and fight my way through the traffic to the office.
Only today’s car journey was slightly different, it was accompanied by the voice of Michel Thomas, the linguist who in his lifetime has learnt over ten languages and has taught many of Hollywood’s A-list stars to speak a variety of different languages.
This is because on my 2-week break I set a goal that I will learn Spanish. My husband, Dan has successfully worked his way through the Michel Thomas audio language course in Spanish to the advance stages, and not to be outdone I will follow in these great footsteps.
Being a keen football fan, to help make his learning more fun, Dan would translate the sports pages of Spanish newspapers. Great idea I thought. What could I translate to keep my interest and make it more fun?
I know! Just off to the newsagents to buy ¡Hola! the Spanish version of Hello! As well as learning Spanish I’m also going to be up to speed with all the gossip and be able to discuss the latest must-have celeb sandals with the locals on my next trip to Spain. Hasta la vez próxima mis amigos.
