Hallo! Or should I say hola?

My name is Alba. I come from Spain, and I have been learning German since 2016. It has been a rollercoaster since then, as I have tried many different ways of learning the language: from group courses to private lessons with online tutors to exploring real German media and living in Germany and Switzerland for a while.

It has now been ten years since I started, and I thought it would be nice to have a site that makes it easy for me to keep going. You probably know this too: German is hard to learn without the discipline to keep at it.

German is not the first language I have tried to learn. I have also tried French, Korean, Portuguese, Japanese, Russian, Tagalog and Chinese, but German is the only one I stuck with. I think that is because I love the language and how it sounds, and because I have a personal connection with it, it helped me out of a bad state of mind in the past, and I really don't want to quit and forget everything I have learnt.

In 2025 I passed the Goethe B2 exam, and I am currently taking C1 classes and having weekly private lessons, but they really aren't enough. So I went ahead and created this app as a way to help myself. A daily habit app für meinen inneren Schweinehund, and maybe for yours too. An app that opens the door to reading about things I might not be interested in, discovering artists I have never heard of, finding out about some cool series, or simply getting a feel for how Germans see the world.
