Hi everybody. How are you doing? This is Hoyle Sarate and I hope all of you are doing

well. I hope that all of you are learning Spanish and enjoying the podcast and the conversations with my guests and that the

podcast is helping you to improve your Spanish, to enjoy learning Spanish, and also get this opportunity to listen to native speakers,

have normal, casual, and spontaneous conversations so that you can really get an appreciation for what kind of language

we use and learn vocabulary in context and learn language in context. And this time I wanted to let you know that I am going to

take a two to three month break. There are certain things that I need to do and also to prepare for

the next round of conversations, but also where I live they are rebuilding the building where I live and there is a lot of noise and

it is going to be hard to record for the next couple of months. So for that reason I decided to simply take a break and

when I come back it will be exciting to share more conversations and continue with this adventure that I have truly enjoyed creating

to share with you the joy of learning another language, the joy of learning Spanish, and how much

fun it can be when you are concentrating primarily on being able to develop the knowledge, the language, to help you communicate in Spanish.

I hope that this time can be a time when you can maybe go back to one of

your favorite episodes, listen to earlier episodes because that's also something that will enhance your learning.

That's something that also will reinforce what you have already accomplished so far with your

listening skills so go back and listen to your favorite episodes or go back and

listen to some of the episodes that you have not been able to listen to yet.

So maybe during this time, take this opportunity to just listen to earlier episodes and I hope

that you can enjoy them.

I hope that they can help you to improve your Spanish and I'll see you in two to three months.

So just have the notification if you're using one of the podcast apps that allow you to turn on the notification when a new episode

is published.

And when I come back, you will see the new episode ready for you to listen to and it'll be my pleasure to be back
