Harriet Rich moved to Valladolid, Mexico from the US, when she retired, about 15 years ago. I stayed at the Airbnb she has there, in 2023. It feels like a blessing to say we’ve been friends ever since. 

These days, we’re playing around with podcasting. Here we are, talking about writing and publishing and more!

In this episode, we explore one of the most fascinating questions: what if life were a game? Starting from a personal intuition and moving through art, science, video games, and philosophy, we reflect on “play” as a hidden thread connecting human culture.

✅ My final thoughts on why communication is more important than perfection.

English with Hamed

English is YOUR Language!

Диктант - это не самая любимая часть занятий по русскому языку у школьников, но очень полезная. Так что давайте учиться понимать русский и грамотно его записывать! 
Система будет такая. Я читаю текст два раза: в первый раз медленно, по несколько слов (ставьте эпизод на паузу, чтобы успеть записать), второй раз - быстрее, чтобы вы проверили, всё ли правильно. 
На этот раз я взяла отрывок из рассказа А.П. Чехова “Весной”. У нас сейчас всё именно так, как описывает великий русский писатель. А у вас?
Отправьте мне сообщение "второй диктант готов", как только закончите, и я пришлю вам его текст для проверки. 
Удачного диктанта, друзья!

Why Starting a Business is the Ultimate Personal Development

Il cavallo e l'asino viaggiano insieme sulla strada, quando, ad un tratto, l'asino chiede al cavallo di prendere un po' del suo carico: l'asino si sente molto stanco e teme di poter morire. Il cavallo rifiuta la sua proposta ma ben presto si pentirà di averlo fatto.
