Learning language over distances

Sitting 10000 kilometres away from my wife, and our language skills are scarse, communication often involves translator engines, dictionaries, and other aids.
Yesterday my wife found a small online course in Norwegian, and I use every opertunity to see if I can buy self-study courses in Portuguese.
It is not easy to be so long away from its wife, and knowing that 6 weeks will pass from I left her at the airport in Vitoria until I see her again is hurting. We use every opertuity we have to communicate via MSN. The only things I have to remind me of her in this time is the ink on my skin, the pictures I have, and our talks on the net.
