Profile
I live in northeast Florida in the United States of America. I have aspirations of living in Europe some day. I'm a licensed massage therapist, implementation consultant for an electronic medical records consulting company, and an independent brand partner with a skin care company. I love language and I began learning French in high school. It is the first of many languages I will learn on my path to becoming a polyglot. Communication is such a great tool. I'm looking for friends and penpals! I will be in Paris, London, and Cardiff later this year (Sept. 2015) and my goal is to visit somewhere in Europe at least once a year until I move there. Italy is probably the destination for 2016 so Italian will probably be my next language after I get French down. I've also begun learning Esperanto as recommended by Benny over at the FluentIn3Months website (he also recommended this site). So, here I am. I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible!

    My Hair Is Ruined!

    I got my hair cut just a few minutes ago and I would say it is totally ruined. As I live in Germany, I have difficulties with communicating with people living here since I can't speak German. I went to a hair salon to get my hair cut. There were many people, so I had to wait for over an hour. Eventually my turn came, so I had a seat. I tried to explain what I wanted in English, but the hair dresser didn't get it at all. She was actually not German but Turkish. I knew that, so I tried to explain what I wanted in my bad Turkish. She seemed to understand and started to cut my hair. I was a bit afraid because I knew that she didn't understand me correctly. She cut off too much of my hair! so now Now, I feel like I could serve in the Korean military again. It is such a tragedy. Since it is very hot these days, I can tell myself that it is okay, at least I won't feel as hot as I felt before. 
    I am so depressed at the moment ("now" would also work in place of "at the moment"). I hope it will soon grow (or grow soon). I am shared the pictures of my hair with my friends and they started making fun of it.

    As far as the USA goes, where you are living would determine the cost of living. You could buy a house with many acres of land in the midwest for much less than you'd pay in rent in Manhattan, New York City, for example. There are many cost of living calculators available online to compare the various markets. I just looked up and according to an article published in June, the average rent on a 2 bedroom apartment in Manhattan was around $3,800. By comparison, I own a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom townhome in Jacksonville, Florida and pay less than half of that for my mortgage and also have a 2 car garage and a yard.

    I defintely prefer Memrise as well over Duolingo for many of the reasons already mentioned.

    I read on the FluentIn3Months website that if you haven't yet learned a language other than your native language, spending 2 weeks learning Esperanto could make your learning of your target language a lot easier. I started learning that and it is actually pretty simple.

    I prefer British accents but I'm American so that could be why.
