Intentaré esto en español éste es mi gato más viejo. Él es dos años. Su nombre es Gollum. Él es un birmano marrón. Él es un gato muy cariñoso y perezoso. (this is my eldest cat. He is two years old. His name is Gollum. He is a chocolate brown burmese. He is a very affectionate and lazy cat.)

This is my youngest cat this is my youngest cat Lily.... she is 18 months old. She is a Lilac and Cream Tortiseshell Burmese. Can you write a comment below in English and spanish about her for me or about the picture itself?

Day 2 realising how friendly people are here and meeting people from all over the world. Can't wait to get started. Have purchased a few books on learning Spanish and learn from TV and movies the basics of some phrases. I have some very basic skills in Italian that I learned a long time ago and can see the similarities in some of the languages and even in the English to Spanish translations. I would love to visit Peru, Chile, Argentina and Brasil. I would also like to visit Spain and Portugal at some point too. The culture of these countries intrigues me. I have been involved in breeding Alpaca also and the wool crafts is of interest to me also along with the farming practices of these countries as I live in a rural area in Australia.

I am just a beginner  looking for help to start learning to read Spanish and have fluent conversations. The Spanish language is used in so many countries I would like to visit someday and I would really appreciate being able to speak the language. If there is someone out there that would also like to improve English I would be willing to swap language classes with someone. I am a fully qualified school teacher and have post graduate university studies.

First notebook entry: Introducing myself I hope to learn spanish to increase my enjoyment of life.
