Acquiring Russian The Natural Way

Just a quick note on success story. I had a short conversation with a Russian person and they complimented my pronunciation and seemed impressed by my ability. Just celebrating the small wins.

I'm mostly back on track with my Russian acquisition journey. It's been a strange year with inconsistent study. On a positive note I've had some good interactions with native Russian speakers which is very motivating. I want to push hard this year in order to get to a comfortable conversational level.
