Learn a new language

Although this is the best of clichés of all time it cannot be mentioned. Who said that lockdowns have to be non productive? Why not learn a new language? Learning a new language, or at least perfecting one, has some benefits to it. For example, in 2013 a research group from Edinburgh University found out that bilinguism is directly linked to belated dementia. Out of 648 patients 391 were bilingual and all of them developed dementia on average 4 years later than monolingual people. Many studies confirm such finding, but adise from these kind of benefits there are many more. Other benefits may include: better decision making skills, improved memory, induced multitasking, bigger brain and so on. So what are you waiting for? Sign up for an online course and get started.
