Travel
The world is getting smaller and smaller as transport becomes ever faster and cheaper. You could go to Africa on a safari; to China to see the Great Wall; to Paris to see the Eiffel Tower; to lie on a beach and sunbathe somewhere hot. Or maybe you could go to Poland on business or to a conference in Brazil.
Languages help make these experiences better – and you can really get involved with all aspects of the country and its people. You can talk business in their language, you can find your way around more easily and you can relax, make friends and go out with people who will give you a view of the world through their eyes – a totally different perspective from that of the tourist.
