Hi all,
My name is Patrick and I am from Co. Tipperary in Ireland. I just got the combo-course today and am really enjoying the first couple of lessons. I am 52 years old and have always wanted to visit China and will eventually get there in the next couple of years, by at least 2012, and maybe even sooner. In any case, I have now got the course and the time to learn the language and am looking forward to making daily advances, and from what I have seen so far I feel pretty confident I will do very well using Rocket Chinese.
Incidentally, if anyone knows how to say Ireland and Irish in Mandarin I'd appreciate you telling me :)
