Why I Love Learning Uncommon Languages (No, It’s Not For Clout!)

Episode Summary
“Woah! You speak that language I’ve never heard of that only 10 people speak?!” 🙄 For me, learning uncommon languages is rewarding beyond clout or showing off. In this episode I explain why I love learning lesser studied languages & include personal stories from studying languages like Guarani and Sinhala, highlighting how even small efforts in lesser-known languages create meaningful connections and insights into culture.
