Just because you may be years out of school doesn’t mean your zest for learning went away. There are many ways you can continue to expand your knowledge.

Start a book club

Winter is the perfect time to gather a group of like-minded literary friends looking to learn more about a certain topic—so start a book club! Whether you are interested in history, a particular author, or want to spark a good discussion, a book club is the perfect way to keep your brain churning. Select the books together, and plan on monthly meetings to discuss your opinions.

Learn a language

Maybe you lost your Spanish skills from high school and want to brush up, maybe you’d like to learn the language of your ancestors, or maybe you want to learn the language of a foreign country you’re planning to visit this year. Whatever the case may be, choose one that you’re interested in. Invest in books, download a language learning app, or enroll in an online program to get started.
