Language & Travel Hacking

Month 2 Language Project update


Listen Later

After two intense months of studying Indonesian—dedicating up to eight hours a day, seven days a week—I’m excited to share my progress in this episode of the Language and Travel Hacking Podcast. I’ve reached a solid B1 level, able to hold conversations with patient speakers using formal Indonesian. Skipping Bali’s beaches and parties to focus entirely on learning has paid off, and I’m now ready to take my skills beyond structured lessons and into real-world interactions. With a spontaneous, unscripted conversation video on the way, you can judge my progress for yourself.

Now, as I prepare to travel through Indonesia—starting in Jakarta before spending a month in Jogja—I face a new challenge: shifting from formal textbook Indonesian to the casual, everyday language spoken by locals. Adapting to natural speech won’t be easy, but I’m eager to fully immerse myself and explore more of Indonesia beyond Bali. Tune in to hear about my language journey so far and what’s next as I continue my adventure!
