“Languages are ultimately designed to bring people together.”

Welcome to an inspiring interview with one of my favourite language bloggers: Ron Gullekson from Language Surfer. His relaxed language learning attitude will make you so comfortable. 

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why Ron's blog is called Language Surfer
• How formal language learners all know what "drawing a line down the middle" means :)
• How Ron structures his on curriculum for language learning
• Which level of language learning you might be at if you studied Arabic for 8 hours a day..for 64 weeks!
• Free listening, and how soon you can start doing this in your own study routine
• How to create your organic SRS system

I had secretly expected Ron to choose tip 3 as a music fan, but his own choice was tip 1: Get out and talk to people.

1) Meet up in conversation groups offline

2) Find local podcasts by switching itunes to the country's store

3) Learn with music on Spotify
