Over half way through the italki World Cup Language Challenge! When did this happen? Now, apparently.

This week I’ve been having fun with Danza Kuduro! I’ve been in my garden again because it’s far too hot to stand under lights for half an hour. Not quite a heatwave but by British standards we’re not far off. Then the camera decided to stop filming after a minute. I noticed after I’d done the whole video. Go team.

Also, I’m very pleased to announce that the Live Broadcast of my on the spot Portuguese Commentary is all set up and ready on YouTube! You can bookmark the link right here! I’ve never done anything like this before and I’m have no idea how it’s going to pan out!! I’ve opted to commentate the play off match (for 3rd and 4th place) on Saturday 12th July rather than the final on the 13th because I’m sure you’ll all want to watch that one without me chatting away in Portuguese! I also don’t know if I’ll commentate the whole match. What I’m thinking at the moment is to commentate the first half and then invite you to share your thoughts about the World Cup (and my attempt at commentary!) during half time and the second half. What do you think? Would you like a chance to join in?

It will be broadcast on my YouTube channel via Google Hangouts On Air and, who knows, if this works, we could make it a regular thing! The link is here again if you’re ready to bookmark it. 9 days to go, 3785 Portuguese football words to learn, 1 chance not to mess it up. I should write film trailers, no?

Oh, and exciting news! Despite my love for Silverstone, me and Ashley are heading off to Slovakia tomorrow (another reason I filmed in the garden – I normally edit on Friday!). This means another Mini Mission coming a lot sooner than planned and more stuff over on Mundo Trundle very soon.

Fingers crossed that week 6 of the Challenge will be just as exciting!
