Language Barrier? What’s That?!

Thursday, June 16th, 2005

I realized that there is no such thing as a language barrier…two weeks ago, I got lost on my way home here in Germany…there were two of us who got lost…he was an italian who only knows how to speak french and of course, italian…a little german too…but when we were finding our way back, we happen to chat…i only knew tagalog, english and a little german so i guess our common denominator was german…however he spoke in italian and i spoke in gerlish (probably a combination of german and english…something that would happen to you in a foreign speaking land)…we chatted a lot and we happen to understand each other…we happen to meet at the tram stations and we never forget to shake hands and chat some more…still in our own languages…funny things happen when you get lost…Language Barrier? What’s that?
