I love it too. Was just back there at the end of May.

Hi again Sarah, apologies, I somehow forgot to reply to this comment. I didn’t want to recommend anything for Italian as it’s years since I was working on Italian (I used the old Langenscheidt Praktisches Lehrbuch Italianisch). How are you finding Magari?

I’m excited then to see what your bookshop safari in Vienna turned up. The frustrating lack of foreign-language bookshops in Vienna (except for English) makes me keep coming back to the idea that I should stop whining and open one myself — but perhaps I’ve missed something excellent.

As for Italian, I chose Magari B2. From the online reviews it seemed like the one most suited to my learning style, but since the books all come shrink-wrapped and there’s only an online preview of one chapter, it’s impossible to know for sure. I plan to open it tomorrow and take a closer look – I got distracted all weekend. Any suggestions if you were looking for a textbook?

What a coincidence, Sarah! 🙂 Yes, that would be me….preparing a “bookshop safari” vlog from Vienna. It will be up on the YouTube channel…but not for a while. Lots of other stuff lined up first. Which Italian textbook did you choose?

Inspiring coincidence! I hope your schnitzel was one of the good ones..!
