They didn’t speak any English at all.My Swahili is quite limited.
But still, we managed to have a million great conversations together. It’s amazing how much people who don’t speak the same language can understand from each other as long as they just want to.
Some say that language and borders are barriers. But I can’t see that.
People miss out on so much because they are afraid. Afraid of not understanding, afraid of unexpected things and afraid that something might go wrong.
As long as people have an open mind and are willing to try to understand each other, language and borders are nothing but great possibilities!

It is the fear and ignorance that are the real barriers.

So true. Communication - verbal or symbolic - has no barriers. :)
And I am so glad you could have an unforgettable time there. I am really wishing I get a similar opportunity...
