Let me start by recommending to those of you that usually travel around the world not to take your camera with you everyday and everywhere because it will keep you focused on the visual aspect of the surroundings instead of experiencing the real deals of appreciating the moments instead. Let's face it, after all, at the end of the trip and once returned home, what will you remember ? Isn't it going to  be the everyday people you were talking to, the history of the regions and its customs, the areas you visited and above all, the particular way they made you feel in their country. Let's also remember that languages can unite but can separate people too. Although its primary role is to relate people to each other through the sharing of different cultures, religions, foods and above all, their very warm social experiences. When talking to local people, try to use their language in order to communicate with them. Take it from me, they'll always appreciate your effort f

Most people when travel tend to use their home language, hoping some one will have to understand what they're saying. Fact of the matter is the other way around, and that is that most natives of the countries  that one is visiting expect  for the traveller to speak in their native languages, such as: spanish, french or german and not necessarily english. Not only that's not hard to do, but it's the right thing to do according to the rules of courtesy. When in Rome, hey, you speak italian or when in Spain you speak spanish.
