Anastasia (from Russia) and I talk about her experiences of living in different countries and developing different culture layers over time. One important thing is to learn about different ways of life and choose the one that suits you the best. One topic is also how different you feel when you speak in other languages. We start with English and move to Spanish in the middle.
