When you do not share a language
Many hosts on CallMe are from Latin America and speak Spanish first. That does not have to stop a good conversation: keep sentences short, smile a lot, use your hands, and type in the chat when you get stuck — chat messages can be auto-translated. Learning to say "¿De dónde eres?" (where are you from?) also goes a long way.
