I’ve been studying French since I retired. I know, it’s probably somewhat useless. Given the current pandemic crap, I’m not likely to be traveling anywhere soon where I might actually use this skill.
It is definitely more challenging to learn a new language at nearly 65 than it is in high school. I’ve resorted to making flash cards. If you see me walking around muttering the days of the week to myself, I haven’t lost my mind. At least not yet.
Great idea! Learning something new is always a good thing.
Consider Acadiana, in South Central Louisiana. I know, there was a Hurricane, but it didn’t hit the Lafayette -Lake Charles area. In October, or early November, the weather is great, there is a lot to see and so Mr of the people speak French. A little Cajun French might exercise those brain cells even more. If that doesn’t appeal, there is Montreal or Nova Scotia. Great yarn shops there.
Knowledge and languages are never useless 🙂 I am learning Spanish and Swedish! It is so much fun.
