  Life is full of these “forks in the road”. We never know where we are going to end up. That’s what makes it exciting!

    Thanks, Tim! Merging some podcasts’ lessons, could I say: “I overslept, got behind my today’s tasks and ended up doing nothing all day”?

In las July I went to Chile. Before going I studied Spanish a litte. I tought I had learned enough for speaking Spanish there and Portunhol. As soon I arrived in the hotel I tried to speak Spanish or Portunhol to the receptionist but she could’t understand me well and vice versa. So I ended up speaking with her, in English. That’s true and I tought I could speak Spanish or Portunhol. kkkkk
