Has knowing (or not knowing) a language ever made or ruined your travel experience?
I did an exchange semester in Finland last year for 4 months, and it was interesting to experience travel and daily life without fully knowing the language.
Even simple things like ordering food or handling small tasks can feel different when there’s a language barrier.
What was your experience while traveling or living abroad and knowing or not knowing the local language, good or bad stories are welcome.
