I'm definitely going to do Indonesian again as I couldn't do much during the last challenge in February and will try to make up for that.

I'll be doing Spanish for my first ever 6WC. Maybe the intensity of a 6 week challenge
will set me off on the right track for the Super challenge.

Someday I'll have to labor over the hard decision on which language to pick, but since
all I'm studying so far is Spanish then the decision is already made for me!

I'm all excited about my first 6WC! I was toying with the idea of starting to learn Turkish for it, but I think I'll stick to what I'm already doing. It'll be Persian rather than Russian, because I feel that I've been neglecting it a little, and also I've got four months until being thrown into the deep end, i.e. into Iran, for three weeks. And no plans to go to any Russian-speaking countries for the time being, sadly. So hey.

(I read through the how-to and the thread linked here, but I'm still not sure I've fully understood this. Do I need to sign up on a specific thread, or is it enough to register with the twitterbot? Do I report all the languages I study, or just the 6WC target language I've signed up with?)

You report other languages you study, along with your main target language.

Signing up for the bot is enough.

My friend and I decided to go to some music festival this summer, and the ones in Lisbon and Helsinki piqued our interest the most. Right now we're leaning towards Finland, because it's much closer and cheaper to travel to from Russia. If we actually decide to go there, then I will do Finnish for this challenge. That would be really interesting... all I know about Finland so far comes from this movie, lol.

It's called Flow. My friend is the one masterminding the festival part of the trip, so I don't know much about it myself yet, but its website looks pretty (and trippy).

A couple weeks ago I decided to take a brief look at Piemontèis and became pretty
interested in the language. There are many more resources to learn the language than I
initially thought, so I think I may try that for the 6WC in May.

I've noticed that there hasn't been much interest in it here on HTLAL, so it'll be a
lonely slog, nonetheless...
