Language learning & Travel
Hi, I’m Kathryn!
Born and raised in Los Angeles, currently living in Dallas. When I’m not listening to a podcast in Japanese or reading a book in Spanish, I’m making plans for my next budget trip.
2025 was my third full year of language learning. Portuguese and French were new additions, and since they’re similar to Spanish, which I'd already been learning, I was able to go (almost) straight to native audio. And they say there are no shortcuts!Â
I spent a week in Greece in May 2025, crisscrossing the Athens metroplex and Naxos. While all the restaurants I stopped at were pretty good, some of them had an extra-special something that set them apart from the crowd.
In 2024 I started learning Japanese by consuming comprehensible input, no textbooks or classes, coming in knowing nothing.
This itinerary is organized into six days spent in walkable areas so you can take public transit to the area, spend the day exploring it on foot, and catch a ride back to your accommodations for the night.
