We are both very geeky and love learning new things so one thing we've started doing is a free online course together. I found this site https://www.saylor.org which has a huge selection of free courses so we just pick something and work through it and then talk about it. I've learned loads from him!!

Interesting idea. Her's another site who lists a lot of online university courses. I guess there are a lot more if you look around..

Sweet, that looks really great. My boyfriend really likes taking online courses from Coursera. He's taken several thus far and he's actually doing better in his university classes now because he learned so much from them. I wish I had that kind of motivation!

:o This is awesome! I had no idea things like this existed. The little nerd in me is practically leaping for joy.“The ties that binds us are sometimes impossible to explain.

Here is a language site I found for those in international relationships search 101languages
also if you are trying to learn words and phrases try the Codegent applications on the google play store
MattDavies86 if I come across any Thai (Siamese) learning resources I will let you know
currently this all I could find was the Codegent Thai app

If anyone is still interested in this, Iversity also offrs some very very good MOOCs (massive open online courses), but they start and end at specific dates usually, so you can't start most of them just whenever.Comment

I love this idea! My bf is so geeky and I'm a nerd. I posted him the link so hopefully we can do something like this together.Comment
