beautyscientist is on a distinguished road
Default I read a book about every nine months

I have a very beneficial habit. Every morning at about 11 I spend exactly 10 minutes reading a book in a foriegn language (either French or Portuguese). I do the same at about 3.30 in the afternoon.

This is almost nothing out of my day, but over the several years I have been doing it I have built up a list of books, all classics, that I have read in the original language.

I don't travel much and I don't need the language skills for business - it is just something that pleases me to do.
