I recently had the privilege of getting to know Karin Ellis of Ellis Culture. It was through Speak Norsk that I found Ellis Culture and from there I attended the free online seminar hosted by Karin on Applying for jobs in Norway.

You might be wondering why I’m doing this. Am I job hunting in Norway? […]

Now that I’m on a three-day workweek (lucky me!), I have more time to think about my approach to learning foreign languages, its implementation and execution. I came up with the table below to map out the days, languages and methods.

I’ve been tinkering with Norwegian and Danish for a while now on Duolingo and they’re similar to Swedish. I enjoy learning both and it’s time to get serious with them. I bought some books for a more in-depth study expanding on my knowledge of the Scandinavian languages (also called North Germanic languages).
