May We Learn to be Better Than Who We Were Yesterday.

Ask yourself what makes your day a valuable day. What is it that makes you feel connected to those around you?

Is it the subtleties of passing a fellow runner on the street, stopping to greet to one of your neighbors and their dog, thanking the clerk at the grocery store, talking to your sister about the new Barbie Movie or telling your teammate about your latest foodie adventures.

There are many moments throughout our days, lives even, that are dependent on our societal interactions. Furthermore, we're acknowledging our vital dependence on each other to function in society. Now with that thought in mind, what would you do, if you flew into a foreign country without an inch of language or cultural knowledge. It could be quite difficult to bridge those societal gaps and needs.

Since Covid and the reemphasis of the electronic age it is common for us to be surrounded by others and feel as though we are still very lonely or disconnected. As these feelings exists even when communication shouldn't be an issue, imagine the result of adding on a language barrier.

Although, we couldn't say it's not doable, (speaking from personal experience) one of the best aspects of intercontinental travel is becoming immersed in a culture that is different from your own. There is no better way to catapult your experience into a more meaningful one by leveraging our resources into creating a more connected adventure.

Speaking firsthand, I know what it is to put a personal wall up in another country, without having the confidence or experience to speak those foreign phrases out loud. Which is why it's become a part of our mission, to empower more individuals interested in learning a new language by providing a fun and safe place for them to make mistakes, learn and continuously practice with others.

Many say life is short, when in reality it's truly very intentional. There's enough time for us to pursue our goals and create better opportunities, not only for us, but our next generations.

May we learn to be better than who we were yesterday.

Learn a little something... Italian.

Ciao Bella, or hey pretty!

Did you know that the country of Italy is shaped like a boot. I suppose there is a reason they are known for their fine shoes and the Milan fashion district.

Let us depict this graphic really quickly...

Did you know Italy is one of the European Union's peninsulas, which means a majority of its land is surrounded by a water. There are incredible coastal regions, boating and fishing in Italy.

Tourism for Italy's architecture is a major attraction, which is why we have incorporated the Roman Coliseum and the Liening Tower of Piza... you know because not all good things are straight. ;D.

Interestingly enough the Alps mountainous region ventures through 8 Countries, Italy, included. Alongside Monaco, France, Switzerland, Italy Liechtenstein, Germany, Austria and Slovenia.

Fun fact, Italy has aerospace engineering and manufacturing capabilities too. Frankly it's only fitting with Italy's engineering capabilities. Historically, Italy has been known for many of what we'd call Luxury cars, i.e., Lamborghini, Ferrari, Maserati, Alfa Romeo Etc. These Italian cars are well known for their cutting-edge designs, aero dynamics and style.

All together we presented just a few of the many things we could learn from Italy in our graphic. So, ciao to our European Neighbors and all we've had to gain from their culture.

They say when you are full of love, it comes pouring out into those around you. Hense the reason why I wanted to share something I love with each of you. In 2022, I took a trip that led me to Italy. During my time in Italy, I learned just a bit more about the many things that make Italy to be as beautiful as it is. I wanted to share the beauty I had experienced with you.

This line of work leaves me so full of love, I make it a part of my life's mission to share what I can. I hope that between our positive experience, our knowledge and our game, we create a community to help you learn as well and prepare you for your present and future.

Regardless of the intent,

We hope you learned something Italian today.

Our Progress....

So, us 90's babies, how does life feel? We've lived through a lot haven't we. To think ~20+ years ago we were sitting in elementary school, surrounded by large social structures, we were sponges, looking to our teachers for guidance and answers... and here we are, teachers now. Whether we are leaders in our fields, actual teachers, parents, aunts and uncles, coaches, or just living in society - we are steering the ship.

When we think about putting our hands on the next generations of life, the next generation of leaders, who do we want them to be, what do we wish to leave behind. I don't know about you, but I am hoping to leave behind a smarter, and more communicative generation. Like the representation of America, we strive to develop an educated and cultured generation, an adventurous generation, people who aren't afraid to learn from the world.

Think about it this way, we've had an opportunity to learn from the best. From a young age we've seen the greats turn mail to I.M.'s and emails. We've watched cells surface which led to portable calls, texts, facetimes and now we could see Augmented Realities - digitized social medias and graphically designed worlds. In other words, we've seen real people bring amazing, beneficial ideas to life. We've felt the impact of technology grow around us.

It is real people everywhere everyday taking their days by the hands and building a world the wish to see. At Boober Company we are no different. I've seen us grow; I've seen us work to get to where we are.

Here's our new - this year we've been passed up on 3 funding opportunities (Big L for them, right?). - but we aren't going anywhere. We're not done fighting, we're strong enough to carve our paths. The truth is we don't always win every battle, but we get up and keep going because at the end of the day our next generation will be better of being able to speak multiple languages and gaining confidence in travel and connectivity.

The truth is we've had 31 orders of magnitude, we've experienced old friends as supporters our common vision. We've had what were strangers and now supporters join our goals in building this game. The truth is we've come a long way and have a long way to go. So, thanks for having faith in us - because we won't let you down.

Let us share the progress we've made so far without external funding. We've made our French and Spanish Prototypes. We've targeted graphics covering the 4 Romances Languages Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese plus two others Hawaiian and Japanese because both cultures are truly dear to my heart. <3
