re: Has anyone here ever been to Iceland?

My mistake-I forgot to add that learning a language to impress people is the wrong reason to. I do it because I just enjoy it. It fascinates me and it annoys those around me. People tell me i can’t do it, it’s a waste of time, etc. but it is something that I can do every day as a honby and really look forward to.

I’m a firm believer in winning in business, personal money management, staying up to date on changes in technology, but I think it’s very important to have some sort of hobby that you find happiness in. Life is too short anyway.

I actually did try to tackle Chinese a few years ago, but I did not have the time on hand to commit to learning that monster. Though that would be a feat to learn that. And yes definitely more practical, as there’s probably a couple of billion speakers of it compared to 330,000 for Icelandic.
