It all starts here; these two books. Momentarily there was quite a feeling holding these tiny things in my hand, thinking about their small price, and their small size, yet the grandeur of the result they will ultimately lead to. Of course you can’t learn a whole other language or experience a whole other country with just a grammar book, but just like with my Italian, this is where it starts. Everything I did in Italy I’m about to do somewhere else, all that I learned of Italian, I’m about to learn of something else. It all starts here.
