After a summer of sun, travels and great gardening, I’m ready for the next term. Refreshed by a day at my favourite hidden cove in Cornwall.

German does yearning so well. ’Fernweh’, ‘far-sickness’, is the longing for distant places, while ‘Sehnsucht’ is a wistful desire for something intangible. #shoutoutforgerman
This week let's celebrate the German language!
👉 Your favourite German word?
👉 That incredible trip to Deutschland?
👉 Your German teacher, aka the best teacher of all time?
Use #ShoutOutForGerman and show everyone what German means to you!

At the weekend I was lucky enough to go to language learning conference. I was even luckier to go to a session on being anti-racist. I cannot stop thinking about it. Both sessions were so thought provoking, now to action!
