With the advancement in technology, the world has become increasingly interconnected. The technology enables you to chat with people worldwide at the tip of your fingers. Be it your neighbor or a new friend who is a thousand miles away, learning a new language or acquiring a new skill will always help you. Being able to communicate with any person in their language is a gift. No matter where you are if you know a second language, it will give you the confidence to interact with the locals, in addition to making you feel like a local.
With the increase in interaction with people of various cultures, you will shape up. The kindness of a random stranger will bring drastic changes in you. Who knows, you might even make friends for life in a place you did not approve of in the beginning. Moreover, bilinguals or multilingual possess enhanced problem-solving skills, strong listening skills, improved concentration, and a higher ability to do multiple tasks at a time. Also, a person who knows multiple languages will possess the ability to beat off mental aging and cognitive impairment at old age.
