EP 90 Buckley's Chance

Australians Teach English

It has been a long time since I've uploaded an episode, and there is a very good reason why. Half way through last year I had a very serious accident which has left me paralysed from the chest down. I spent a total of nearly 5 months in hospital - of which 6 weeks were in intensive care. It could be said that I had Buckley's chance of getting back to doing an episode, but here we are. In this episode Oriana and I talk about how language learning has helped us through different crises in our lives, and how the philosophy of learning a new language can be applied to different situations to help us in any recovery we might experience. We are extremely grateful to the messages of support we have had and it has been a big goal for my personal recovery to get back to the podcasts and teaching English.
