So when my graduation gown had been flung back onto the pile, I naturally did what any self-respecting linguist would do (especially after a year in Manchester), and went in search of the sun!

Learning a new language...every year!
Written by Randy at Yearlyglot.com Thursday, 12 August 2010 17:10I've always been interested in languages. By high school graduation I spoke Spanish, German, French, and Filipino. I started my blog to answer questions about how I learn languages, and I chose "fluent every year" as a fun goal with a unique identity.

Spending time abroad is an introduction to a different culture and amazing new friends from all round the world, which is exactly what ThirdYearAbroad.com is all about. Fortunately enough for us, it is also the driving force of the OCEANS Network! I was so happy to be invited to speak at their first Annual AGM and arrived in Brussels to meet 60-or-so students of 21 different nationalities who spent (or will spend) time on an EU exchange programme in North America or the Asia Pacific region.

Summer's finally kicked in (looks like we'll get sunshine instead of a World Cup - no rain in Glasto? It must be a good year!). In between writing up a whole new load of articles, country profiles and getting some magnificent Moles (we're still on the lookout for more, so do get in touch if you fancy yourself as a bit of a city know-it-all!), we've managed to bagsy some tickets to the hottest festival around, The Big Chill - all you need to do to win yourself two splendiferous tickets is give us your top tip for going abroad. It can be about travelling, living, settling in, partying, eating or making the most of student discounts, anything you deem to be the most priceless advice for future Year Abroaders....Free tickets are up for grabs, and we'll announce the winners on Tuesday 27th July. Simples!
