    Ive heard from a few different tourists who went to places like Italy and South and Centeral American countries, and aparently often times people there want to practice their english which can cause quite the funny scene where you’re both speaking each others language poorly at one another.

      This happened to me in Ecuador! Hah! It was nice for learning as each one can correct the other if they fumble any pronunciation
