A year ago, I attended a three days Russian language course at a school in Perpignan and since then, I did not really had time to continue. As luck would have it, we have got Russian neighbours and I asked if we could meet once week for a short Russian conversation session. And so it happens that Julia, my neighbour, comes over every Sunday to help me learning that language. Besides listening to podcasts, reading children books I also write down every week a little text, trying to avoid any dictionary.
