I'm sitting down to my breakfast of pepper with a bit of scrambled eggs on toast.
Are there any Te Reo or Mandarin speakers here?
I've been super hooked on ADV Podcasts and learning all about China, so now I have the urge to learn Mandarin.
I think I'll be having another downsize day where I try to declutter as much as I can, but it gets exponentially harder as I get closer to only having essentials.
I know there are a few te reo learners around, not sure about fluent speakers. You can probably find Mandarin night classes pretty easily.
I think when learning a language, having a class that you attend with others can really help with motivation. I did a couple of years of (mostly) in person classes of te reo, and once they stopped it was a lot harder to keep the motivation to continue learning.
Got arborists in today cutting back tree overgrowth on the driveway and removing smaller stuff that is rapidly taking over. These last 2 wet years have really caused a lot of excessive growth.
