World forum < Why do foreigners always stick with people from their own country?

    Chicken and egg...

    Hi Jose, unfortunately this is a little bit of a "chicken and egg" problem: If you don't meet native speakers because you don't speak the language, you won't practice that language and get better at it...

    From my experience the only way to break this circle is to just go for it and speak whatever you can. And in fact most people will understand if you don't speak their language properly at the beginning..
