The Busy Language Learner First, I launched a free email course called “The Busy Language Learner”. It’s a 7-day productivity challenge to help you fit just a little bit more...

Please note that I was given a month trial to Baselang in order to write this review. All opinions are my own. After studying Russian, I decided I needed a break. Something that in comparison, with my background in French and Italian, would be easier. Spanish seemed to be the perfect solution. I began dabbling in the language, trying it on to see how it...

You know those restaurants that are ‘in the neighborhood’, those that you pass by endlessly without ever realizing the incredible experience that awaits you just within their doors?

Normally, when I travel I like to spend a few days in each city I visit, having the time to enjoy the food, the people and the energy. But on occasion, I like to change things up and do things a little different. As a musician, I’ve had the opportunity to perform on cruise ships every so often and it’s always an incredible experience. Especially...

At a quick glance, it’s easy to feel like you don’t have time to learn a language. It’s also easy to blame not making any progress on a lack of time, as well.
