Guilt and Logistics
Hi there! This is Melanie and these are my curated bits and pieces from the interwebs. I also occasionally link to my own websites - Italofile and Miss Adventures - and my writing on Gadling and About.com. Cheers!

This is a video clip of a 20 year old who can speak a ton of languages. His accents are really good. This is awesome.
I absolutely love this!
As someone who has self-studied languages for years (French, German, Italian, Hindi, Turkish), I am supremely impressed by this guy as I’m nowhere as fluent in any of these as I’d like to be.
My best speaking and overall foreign language is German, I read French pretty well, and I can turn on the Italian and the Turkish when I have to. I used to be able to read Hindi and even make jokes and eavesdrop in it, but I’ve forgotten almost all of it.
The languages I most want to learn are Dutch, Portuguese, and Hebrew. Oh, and I guess I could stand to learn Spanish, too. :-)
