Have you ever lived in a country whose language you are trying to learn and then had friends and family come to visit? Do you find this a challenge? We are trying to travel with a friend at the moment who is insisting on speaking English to everyone. We try to help with translation but it ends up being more of an embarrassing situation that being helpful. Does anyone have any tips for traveling with a new arrival who is very limited in their knowledge of the local language. It seems any visitors we have had, have struggled more than we were expecting. I'm trying to find a pattern that works for everyone but it might be something that has to be handled on an individual basis.
