In this episode, I share an update on my end of year language boost after a very multilingual December. I talk about how I fully reactivated my Irish through local meetups in my hometown, without needing to travel to a major city, and how focused time plus the right books helped refresh the language quickly. I also explain my minimalist approach to language learning materials, including how I keep a small, carefully chosen collection of books at my parents’ house and rely on digital tools or temporary books the rest of the time, keeping my luggage light while still staying organised.

I then look ahead to upcoming travels and the languages I am boosting in preparation. With Malaysia coming up, I share my plans for learning Malay and why even basic conversational skills make a big difference, alongside refreshing my Mandarin so I feel confident using it again. I also talk about revising my German before a short trip, ending the year with Esperanto at a New Year event, and reflecting on what has been a strong year for my language learning overall. I wrap up by encouraging listeners to reflect on their own progress and look ahead positively to the next year of language learning and travel.

If you need one-on-one language guidance, schedule a consultation session with me at languagehacking.com/chat.
