DuoLingo is one of my all time favorites, I'm determined to learn a few languages. Being monolingual is not okay. And as a fellow blogger working without a shmancy camera, I was very glad to her about Afterlight. <br /><br />By the way, I just found your blog through bloglovin and am really enjoying it. I've always dreamed of visiting the UK and Ireland, so seeing your adventures there is a real treat.

Only three, because the fourth, would be kindle, which I already have as a physical form (although don't use as much as I probably should... I just can't help that I love books so much in physical form!).<br /><br />Also, don't know if I did so already, but I'd just like to say thanks for the follow! <br /><br />G. xG.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637578812877380378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5366490881967438438.post-41198179731186030432014-10-16T00:51:37.421-07:002014-10-16T00:51:37.421-07:00You definitely should :) xxYou definitely should :) xxBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13273757375451264248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5366490881967438438.post-61172737167174592612014-10-16T00:51:18.067-07:002014-10-16T00:51:18.067-07:00I know!

I started learning Portuguese from scratch on it last year, and although it's completely different from any language lessons I've done before, I love picking up words and sentences. I also tried a bit of German and would love to give Dutch a try too... Why don't I have more time?!<br />Jennifer x<br /><a href="http://www.ginevrella.blogspot.co.uk" rel="nofollow"> Ginevrella | Lifestyle Blog </a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02471594784742117240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5366490881967438438.post-80863368747756059782014-10-12T21:01:35.608-07:002014-10-12T21:01:35.608-07:00Great post!
