It was exactly one year ago that the first episode of the Near Native podcast was published (back then it was called English with stories) starting my own podcast was quite an interesting project to take on, full of challenges and adventures, and I loved every part of this journey. I love teaching, I love sharing ideas and experiences, but above all else, I love talking to people, connecting with them, and learning from them.

But like the George Harrison song says, "All things must pass." I must sadly abandon this project to make room for other goals and dreams in my life. I hope you enjoyed the episodes we produced, they will be available until the end of this month, after that you won't be able to listen to or download any of the Near-Native podcast episodes. 

Take care, I wish you a lot of success in your language-learning journey! Remember that the most important thing is to enjoy the process. 

It has been a pleasure and an honor, maybe we'll meet again but in another podcast.

Sincerely 

Amir Carrillo
