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.
Listen up, advanced Spanish learners! We all know nothing can be more frustrating than trying – and failing – to find good stuff to watch. That’s why I decided to compile an ongoing list of my top Spanish-language content recommendations.
This May, I took my FIRST international trip (since I was nine years old, anyway), and it taught me so much about what (and what not!) to pack. I made some good decisions, plenty of mistakes, and I want to share everything so we can all learn from it!
Textbooks are too boring, you don’t have the time or money to commit to a class, and a certain app with an owl logo isn’t getting you anywhere. There has to be a better way.
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
