I do find it useful to speak another language when I don't want other people to understand what is going on. Usually though it's only a safe strategy when it is a fairly obscure language. Take, Finnish, for example. Despite being almost completely sure others can't understand me I still try to keep these conversation somewhat safe. You never know who actually can speak your language.

I actually find my mother tongue a little bit more difficult than my second language. My mother tongue is Finnish, but my English is the stronger of the two. The reason for this is that I moved away from Finland at a young age and had to learn English in school. We still spoke Finnish at home, but I had to use English everywhere else. Nowadays I am back in Finland and have no problems communicating with people.I do still find myself thinking in English for the most part though.
