I have always had my doubts about the ¨follow your passion¨ speech… Yet, Kim is a successful example of how doing just that can lead to great results.
She is a linguist from the US, currently the Academic Director of Applied Languages at Uneatlantico University.
In this interview I have learnt, among many other things:
-Why we need to learn and study languages despite the huge advances in technology.
-The best way to approach a new language.
-Why Spanish has not became a widely used language in the US.
-What three languages the younger generation should focus on to succeed.
If you are pondering over what language to learn, and what´s the best way to approach it, listen carefully.
Flow, my friend.

Kim: Soy José Manuel. No se si te acordaras de mi, de Madrid, del colegio San Pablo. El caso es que le apareció a Nieves(mi mujer) un Facebook, que vives en Treceno. Nosotros vivimos en Asturias( Aviles). Nos encantaría verte y charlar un rato y recuperar la relación. Total si estás en Treceno estamos a 150 Kms. Mi teléfono es 670.31.34.01.\r\n\r\nUn beso muy fuerte\r\n\r\nJosé Manuel y Nieves.
¡Hola José Manuel! ¡Claro que me acuerdo de vosotros! Pienso mucho en vosotros y me encantaría veros. Estoy en Santander, así que no me costaría nada acercarme a Avilés. Te llamo y hablamos.\r\n\r\n¡Muchos besos!\r\nKim
