Well, this is my turn I guess... I am currently at a turning point in my life: I'm slowly settling down in London only to brace myself to live in Canada one day. Is that make sense to anybody? It's always easier, when you are comfortably at home, to figure that you will easily cope when talking to a stranger in an English-speaking country because you have been studying the language your whole life. But the truth is: you never have a good command of the language if you don't experiment the language itself daily. Now that I am in London, I realise how far I am from being fluent and I start to worry: will I ever be proficient and get to settle? Will I ever get ahead? if you have ever been in my shoes a couple of years ago, how did you manage? Look forward to hearing you soon!
