I'm English and I speak English (just about lol), lancastrian and scouse lol.

Seriously though, the diverity here is wide.It's great to read about different people's experiences from all corners of the World on here.
That goes for all sorts of forums I'm a member of, you gotta love the internet eh.

I'd class myself as a competent PR, but am always improving, making new breakthroughs.

I'd like to learn some languages, but am unsure as to what approach to take.
I knwos ome french and spanish, but not enough to say that I can speak those languages fluently.
Do you guys buy language books and just practice alone through reading?
I suppose the ideal is to interact with native speakers, but that isn't always attainable at first.

It's something that interests me though, as I'd like to maybe work abroad and experience a different culture (get out of the box so to speak).

Good luck to eevryone whatever your goals are.
