Language & Travel Hacking

Your language learning space: A simple but effective hack!

In this episode, I share a simple but effective language learning tip that has helped me stay focused throughout my travels: creating a dedicated study space. Whether it’s a specific table at home, a quiet café, or a co-working space, having a designated environment for language learning helps eliminate distractions and puts my brain in "study mode." I make a point to stay away from my laptop, as it tends to pull me into work or entertainment, and I’ve even set up my phone to block distracting apps automatically when I enter certain spaces.

I also talk about how routine and environmental cues can make a big difference in staying on track with language learning. Using an e-reader or tablet instead of a laptop, listening to podcasts, or studying with Anki in a distraction-free zone helps me focus better. Even if I don’t leave the house, I set up a specific corner just for language learning. If you’ve been struggling to concentrate, try setting up your own dedicated space—it might just give your learning a boost!
