Because Icelandic is spoken by a whopping 380,000 people (roughly), there are not a ton of resources dedicated to learning the language, especially when you compare it to more widely spoken languages like Spanish, English, French and Mandarin. However, if you want to learn the language, don’t let the lack of abundant materials deter you.

I have spoken about my love for Memrise on here before, so it is no surprise that I am super excited about Memrise’s recent announcement to roll out an official Icelandic course on their language learning platform.
I know that it seems like I literally fell off the earth recently but so much has happened since my last post in November. As you can tell from the title of this post, I am making the big move to the land of Fire & Ice. Gunnar and I have worked tirelessly to make this happen and it is such an awesome feeling to accomplish this on our own terms. I connected with Iceland and its people on my very first visit back in December 2013, and now I get the opportunity to further explore this beautiful place as a resident. Before I jump ahead to that part, I want to recap on how I have gotten to this point and where I am in my polyglot journey. 🙂
