Hi all.. Sorry for my rather long silence - soon I shall back to blogging, hopefully regularly. In fact, I've got a new blog coming up (on the side - this one will still exist, too).

I will do my best to keep updating the main one regularly, but will also post travel and language specific posts on my other blogs. Will provide links as soon as my first post is up!
