Is it a good or bad thing not speaking portuguese/spanish while hitting up s.america...brazil or colombia?
some guys tell me it's better not to speak it because you get laid quicker but that seems a little far fetched, wouldnt I get further knowing the language lol?
Here are the 2 scenarios:
1. If you look like a regular local, DO NOT SPEAK THE LANGUAGE, even if you are fluent, pretend you don't.
2. If you look like an obvious foreigner, MAKE AN EFFORT TO SPEAK THE LANGUAGE AS FLUENT AS POSSIBLE.
So, a Latin guy in Colombia, should pretend to speak little Spanish and more English....this is DHV, while an obvious Anglo-European who speaks fluent Spanish gets girls wet because he is fluent and not latin.
A polish looking guy in Poland should pretend he does not speak Polish, and play up his other language: English, French/Italian. Meanwhile a Latin guy should do very well speaking Polish because he is NOT polish.
The only exception is Russian. Women could give 2 shits you speak Russian when you were born in India or Brazil or any non-Russian speaking country.
So, you may as well speak your Language and not bother making an effort in Russia, unless you really do speak Russia fluently, then just use it for easy communication.
Get me?
