Ep. 42 - Comida de Chile

This is a tough week! We’re losing our Nanny due to the schedule not working for her, so we’re looking into preschools. Fortunately, we have some good prospects on bilingual preschools in our area, so we’re hopeful to find one soon. Jennie also recently went to Tijuana for a six course (platos) dinner from local chefs in the Playas area. In her dinner, she realized, again, how hard it is to translate menus.

Ep. 47 - Break for the Summer

We're back! Thanks to everyone that reached out over the summer and sent us messages of support. We're kicking off season 2 here with five things we learned over the summer. Stay tuned every other week (bi-weekly) as we share our language learning journey.

BE - 02 - Five Things We Learned This Summer

We’ve all said we want to learn a second language, Spanish most likely. This is one family’s honest journey into becoming more compassionate for other cultures by learning the language, meeting Spanish speakers, and immersing themselves in everyday Latin life. 

Hosts Jennie and Ben Sullins have a passion for the Spanish language and traveling to Spanish speaking countries. They are currently raising their young son to be bilingual by practice and immersion. 

In this show their honest journey is shared through the ups and downs of learning a new language, finding the time to learn, what has and hasn't worked, staying inspired to learn, how to raise a child bilingual, traveling through Spanish speaking countries, local phrases and much more.

No matter how beginning or advanced you are in your language learning journey join this family’s adventure and leave inspired.
