Translation Nathaniel’s Portuguese Message:

Last year I started to learn Portuguese, but I stopped studying it because I don't have the opportunity to travel right now. I can't go to Brazil. But every time that I have the opportunity of saying something in Portuguese, with someone from Brazil or Portugal. I take advantage of this opportunity, and I have to say something because this is special for me.

Like I said, every time that I have the opportunity to speak Portuguese. I do it!

In this episode, I interviewed Risa from Indonesia, she shared with us her journey of learning English, we talked about learning English with music and we discuss that learning a language doesn’t need to be boring it can be fun, also if you think that you have to learn all the grammar rules before starting practicing a new language, you might change your perspective, we talked about it. At the end of our call, I had a surprise for Risa.
