Have not met such peoples yet. On a recent outbound flight I met a guy who was... French, living in England, but actually living in my country for a good amount of time and he had picked up on a lot, including the Cyrillic alphabet.

I was surprised at all the mundane places he has visited just mucking about in my country which I would never visit on my own just because there's nothing to see or do there.

Bulgarian. Would be cool, desu. I love speaking it.

i was just baffled, only later i learned that German apparently is the most studied language after English. Almost everyone else we met threw some german words at us before switching to english, one Riksha-bike driver in Oslo could only say "Cowshit" and used it for the whole conversation.

In Czechia it was different, everybody could speak German and you could get along better than with English. You only had to "trigger" it by telling people youre german in czech. Then they would be really helpful and mobilised any german they could speak.

You have to study one foreign language there, but most schools only offer Spanish, German and French. Almost everyone chooses Spanish. A few choose German, and even fewer choose French.
Almost nobody learns those languages, though. I only know one guy who remembers enough Spanish hold a simple conversation.

Did you try to go camping on Hardangervidda? How did you get there?
