IMO, the tough part to consider is the "Half-Life" of a language, meaning the inherent decay of your language skill in respect to time not spent in exposure. Just like muscles, if you don't use it.. you lose it. So f*ck me, i have to budget 20min on my already packed day to get this goal checked off..
BE WARNED! SPANISH IS HARD!!
Unless you want to remain speaking like a fifth grader, then that's a different story.
Spanish isn't hard to practice if you live in Miami. Everyone I work with speaks spanish and half the guests we have speak as well. If you think Spanish is tough though, try Portuguese. I'm starting to pick up Spanish pretty fast from knowing Portuguese and hearing so much spanish and asking questions.
