On day 7, what happens is I talk about the ultimate resource or treasure—a book. I describe what Heinrich Schliemann did, and give them a taste of comparing one text in two languages. Finally, I get them to describe a desert island book they might choose.

I’m excited to have submitted the Get Used To It proposal to Phil, a month and a week after seeing him last. I’m really raring to go, and plan next to video the introductory module. 

I spent 20 minutes in the morning on Spanish, then, later, 20 minutes on Dutch, German and Japanese.
