Rosetta Hola! So this week I managed to do three lessons on Rosetta Stone which was very immersive. Soon as my internet connection decides to behave itself I am hoping to practice more. It's actually quite a fun way to learn. Of course I would much rather be in Spain learning the language first hand but for now have to find creative and immersive ways to keep me going. I am also looking forward to writing these notes in Spanish someday soon I hope! Need to practice a little every day. Hasta luego!

Day dreaming about Spanish So right now I am still just dreaming about learning Spanish. Challenge is to face the books and start learning the basics. I am so glad my university days are long over as studying was not always my favourite pass time but hoping this time studying will be much more enjoyable as I want to learn something beautiful and it also means connecting with some lovely people. Where I live is very pretty and since we have such gorgeous weather at the moment (very rare for England!) might try and find a little cafe or find somewhere green and pretty to sit tomorrow and see if I can do some Spanish language study - be good to get to grips with the basics of grammar! ***A little random note*** I brought a basil plant a week ago because I just love basil especially as a snack with tomatoes. Plan was to make pasta with fresh basil. Sadly I watched the plant all week hoping it would last into the weekend and even managed to water it a little but sadly today came home to find it looking sad and wilted beyond recognition! Had no time to cook as was too busy during the week so finally only managed to have a few sprigs of basil today! Think I am going to stick with the one's that come in a plastic packet in future!
