During the Sekumpul celebration, I spent some time talking with local people. I told them that I’ve been traveling by bicycle for five years, and that I’ve been in Indonesia for five months. When they asked where I learned Indonesian, I said I learned it on the road — riding my bicycle, meeting people, and sharing cultures. I love learning languages, because they open doors to real human connections. #Sekumpul #CulturalExchange #TravelStories #LearningLanguages #HumanConnection
