How new is too new? Warning: I ramble. I joined this site based on a friend's recommendation. My current goal is to learn Icelandic and when I reach a comfortable level to move into Vietnamese. I've been to Vietnam, and I would eventually like to go back, but my next travel goal is Iceland. Granted, limited knowledge of the language does not prevent the travel from happening but I've always been fascinated with Icelandic and I enjoy constantly challenged myself to learn new things. I am extremely new to this, so I'm having trouble deciding how to even find friends on here. Do I write a message in what limited Icelandic I know? Fun fact, I think I know a total of 3 sentences currently. The rest are just individual words. What can I offer? English seems to be common enough that whomever I find to chat with, it wouldn't be a fair trade. These are the things I think about, and probably why I will continue lurking on here without actually messaging folk. But, I thought perhaps a notebook entry would at least get me feeling more confident in interaction. We shall see!
