Why learn two languages the same time? Hi all! I'm low intermediate... I've been studying English almost 2 years and 6 months ago I tried Spanish, but I couldn't! Its very difficult keep focus in one language,and two languages the same time is complicated. I prefer to improve my English skills and after that start Spanish.I study English because I have a dream, I want to travel around the world and make new friends, but of course I need to speak English to get that. When I compare English with my mother tongue(Portuguese) , the two languages are very differents! Some sounds in English there aren't in Portuguese. I have difficult in my speech... but I've been trying speak the language everyday, that is important to get fluency. I watch videos from Youtube with native speakers in English, I think that is a great way to learn and have fun the same time.Thank you! Have a nice week!

We were to a city near here, Natal. My daughter really enjoyed that week, my wife said, we go back many times. Our moments were wonderful!!! My daughter was just walking around and she loves do that. The Hotel is a beautiful place, there are many activities for guests. In the Hotel we can play ping pong, table football and game like pool)(snooker).

In the next year maybe we will go back to hotel again, I hope to have vacation for 30 days, them I will enjoy a lot!
