I tried to find some videos or podcasts in Slovenian this week but didn't have much luck. Slovenian is not common online - or anywhere really (even in Slovenia at this time of year with so many foreign tourists around. TV is probably best, but it's hard to find interesting programmes. I know a lot of football related vocabulary!

That's a problem that doesn't exist with French, but I hear you. I didn't have much luck with finding material for my parallel series "A language a month." Exploring lesser-known languages is fascinating but...complicated. I hope you'll find something :) Any substacker from Slovenia here?

Salut Federica!

Following your journey makes me feel like I’m not alone in the ups and downs of language learning. I’ve also had a few weeks where the goal was just don’t quit entirely. And hey, listening to French while living near a beach sounds like a pretty sweet tradeoff 😉

It is! I am so lucky. Thanks for supporting me week after week :) I hear you. My French progress is slow because I’m a bit overwhelmed. Better than nothing!

French is tough, and life doesn’t exactly pause to let us conjugate verbs!

You're doing better than you think Federica..

Now I want it on a T-shirt. Like: French is tough, and life doesn't pause. It sounds deep and meaningful. It's also damn true, both parts :) Thank you darling. I should definitely take a break and sleep 250 hours. Hope you're doing great!
