One of the fun parts about traveling and speaking another language: sometimes my Spanish is really good, but the past few days people haven’t been able to understand me and asked me to switch to English. Maybe I got lazy, maybe my mouth is moving weird, but it happens. It comes back eventually. I hope

edit: the other part about it is that it does feel embarrassing, because I’m just ordering a coffee and failed to do that. Eh, whatever.

    I’ve found this too: I’m learning German and the first few days in Germany my level was really good. But after a few days my brain seemed to give up and speak in more primitive sentences and started to forget words. I don’t get how it was possible given that I had been constantly speaking it for the past 72 hours.
