What languages can you speak?
I speak English, Spanish, and a little Mandarin. English is my first language, but I always wanted to learn Spanish, so I went to Barcelona to learn after I finished university. I’m quite happy with my level of Spanish although I’d love to have a better accent. When I speak Spanish, I realise that I sound very English- I find the pronunciation very difficult. I struggle to pronounce certain sounds like the rolling “r” sound.
