In this episode, I explore whether it is better to stay in major cities or travel more deeply into lesser-visited places. From my recent time in Taiwan, I reflect on how cities like Taipei make life easier, especially when I do not speak the language fluently, and offer plenty of social events and opportunities to meet people. By contrast, smaller towns can feel more isolating and require much more effort to connect with others.At the same time, I explain why I increasingly favour travelling beyond the capital. It is far more affordable, and it pushes me to use the local language and engage more deeply with the culture. While both approaches have their advantages, I find the best balance is to split my time between big cities and smaller places to get the most out of my travels.If you need one-on-one language guidance, schedule a consultation session with me at languagehacking.com/chat.And don’t forget to check out the Fluent in 3 Months Bootcamp here!Or you can follow me on all Social Media channels:Instagram: @irishpolyglotThread: @irishpolyglotTikTok: @irishpolyglot
