Why you should learn a sign language

In this episode of the Language and Travel Hacking podcast, I
share why I believe everyone should consider learning their
country’s sign language. When I first picked up American Sign
Language (ASL), I didn’t expect how deeply it would connect me to
the deaf community in the US. It gave me access to a rich, often
overlooked culture, and offered a completely new way to
communicate and make friends. ASL quickly became one of my
favourite languages, and I decided to add it to my permanent list
of languages to maintain.


Now, I’m diving back into ASL as my next language project while
travelling across the US. I’ve already started reviewing
vocabulary and am aiming to push my level closer to fluency. Sign
languages aren’t universal—each country has its own—so I
recommend learning the one used where you live. It opens doors to
new communities and perspectives you might never have encountered
otherwise. Give it a go—it’s truly worth it.
