Hi, everyone
I literally forgot about Journaling, since lots of stuff going on right now. I just want to share my thoughts and concerns with you.
I had been considerning myself as an introvert within one year before I found myself in the cirlce of circumstances where I realized that I had never been an introvert.
It was all started at the beginning of April. I had the enticing job offer that I couldn't reject and currently I have an opportunity not only to practice my english speaking skills, but make international friends. The fact that I'm able to do that is so exciting considering the covid situation. I realized that I really enjoy talking to people and getting to know them after my first talk with a foreigner. I don't know how to explain this, but there's significant differs beetwen foreigners and Russians. I tend to think that it's all about a mindset. Russians are far away from postive mindset and it's the fact (I'm not talking about all Russians). I was suprisingly shocked when I saw people just waving and smiling to me. It was remarkable discovery for me. So, I'm trying to hang out with foreigners as much as I can. That's what I wanted to tell in this post.
Journaly is where I can be outspoken and share my concerns and ideas. The hobbies and interests of my friends are so different than mine and I just can't share language learning stuff or productivity stuff with them. I would love to find someone to talk to and even become friends
Really good! I wish I could speak the languages I'm learning as well as you speak English! 😭 Yeah, I think you find a change in positivity and friendliness even within a country. Urban areas in my country have always seemed less friendly to me than the countryside.
Hello Marco! Dude, congratulations for this opportunity, I'm sure you've prepared a lot to get something like this, and I understand you, sometimes, we get to know so many people but very few are those who like our hobbies, I'll be following your profile, who knows we end up talking to each other on some social media someday :)
Hi, @Milly_Chives, you learn really tough languages and you should be already proud of it. Unfortunately, I can't learn languages as I had been doing it before, cuz of the lack of time and space at some point, but I really wanna get back into learning new languages and experience all the sights of this road
@Norival Cardoso, Hi, yeah, why not. I'm always down to make new friends. We can catch up on Facebook
Aw thanks. Yeah I understand what you mean about not having much time to learn languages! I had to pretty much put Korean on hold for a while but I had French exams so I was doing French at least. Hopefully you'll get more time to do languages soon!
@Milly_Chives, thanks, wish you the best in your languages learning career:)
Marco, I don't know if you've heard of an app called Clubhouse. It's fantastic. Look it up. It's audio only, and it's people meeting in different rooms and talking about things that interest them. There are lots of language clubs where you can practice your English, help others with Russian, or just listen in on really interesting conversations. You can only join by invitation and I can invite you if you're interested. I think you'd really enjoy it. Great post!
Hi, @CocoPop. I've heard about this app of course, but I didn't get the access. I will be so grateful if you invite me.
