replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5 I’ve always tried & failed badly at learning a language. I’m somewhat drawn to the idea of spending an extended time in a Spanish-speaking country to try desperately to pick more up! #pttravel

A6 #PTTravel You can give advice, but some people aren’t going to leave their comfort zone for any reason. I had a relative who took a lot of trips on cruise ships, but her idea of getting out of her comfort zone was to take a group tour of the city for a couple of hours.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel My cousin, a keen biker, who used to race motor-bikes, calls it 'Putting Down'! Sometimes, it's the only way to avoid total disaster!
