Hello Travelers,
When traveling, sometimes travelers forget that you might end up having a language barrier on the language that is spoken in the country of your travels. What can you do to fix this and for you as a traveler to feel more comfortable in your travels? Well according to a lot of recent articles regarding this, it actually says the best way to go about this is to use your phone. New programs and applications are produced daily to help travelers understand the languages and cultures of other countries.
One that I found to be really useful was the Travel Phonics App on your smart phone. Here is a link to a YouTube video that shows a little bit more of what it is about and how it is operated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfYKIGJkxlU&spfreload=1.
Some other advice that I can share is to take the time to look into the culture that is presented and language that is spoken. Learning some basic words for a big and expensive travel can give you a better experience. Words such as restroom, money, hungry, and thank you might be in your best interest to learn before.
