So as I had mentioned at the end of my last post, I only focused on one article this past week because of my schedule. Good thing too, because this passed weekend ended up being even more eventful than I thought. As a result, I still have to review my notes from article 5, which will happen tomorrow morning before I start the next one for the week. For this week though I still have a Hindi video update with some exciting news!

Yesterday, I found out that I have won the latest #Add1Challenge which is a community based, accountability language challenge run by Brian Kwong over at Add1Challenge.com .If you’ve ever thought about learning a language or are currently struggling to learn one, the Add1Challenge is an amazing resource. Check it out!

This means I get a round trip ticket to India! Which in turn means I’ll be going to India at the end of this year for two months. Which again, in turn means I have lots of work to do for this project before I leave. My hope is to contact certain organizations in India before I leave and see if I can set up interviews with individuals involved in multiple aspects of SWM in India.

As you can hear from the video below, I am still struggling with simple structures in Hindi, so I’m really, really determined to smooth that out. I have 5 italki lessons set up already for this coming week and I’m hoping this will help jump start things.
