Lately, I've been wanting to start learning Germany, both to communicate with some friends in Germany, but also "just because".

It makes you think not only about the importance of making your children learn other languages (which, IMO, opens a lot of doors), but also exposing them to different cultures. I don't know if I'm more tolerant than the next person, but I DO know I welcome other cultures and beliefs more often, than people I know have never been outside their country. I guess that's what you get from becoming an ex-pat. And it still surprises me that in a country of immigrants like Canada, there are still people who won't embrace multiculturalism. Foreign languages have always fascinated me. I learnt English almost on my own, but I also picked it from my parents. I HAD to learn French when I moved to Quebec, but I love it. And Spanish... I'm VERY proud of my native language, which is beautiful, and I know I use it well. So, qu'est-ce qu'on is going to do este fin de semana? ;-) Interesting article.
