Improving My Vocabulary

We are at Goiânia today. We intend to visit the newborn of my wife's cousin, Miguel, who is almost two months old.

During last weeks, I spent some time reading a book of Ernest Remighway. He received the Nobel Award of literature for the book The Old Man and the Sea.

I'm having a hard time to read it. First of all, he barely uses comma at his sentences. Sometime, it is difficult to understand and I'm obliged to re-read.

I have been trying to improve my English. So, reading books and listening Podcasts were the best ways that I found to improve it. Furthermore, I try to write at my diary in English.

I spent last years just reading technical books and newspaper's texts. So, I need to practice and remember a day-by-day English vocabulary.

In the future, We intend to travel abroad. My wife and my daughter are learning English as well.

Every week my daughter borrows some book from her school's library. Most of them introduces a familiar vocabulary. We read them to her, as she is only two years.

With the same purpose, I read a Book in French, Les Gens Heureux Lisent et Boivent du Café. My intention is to alternate a book in French and a book in English.

I'm accepting suggestions of books to read. It is not so easy to find printed English novels in Brasilia. Most of the time they are translated. I usually find some titles at bookstore Cultura.
