Speaking Your Native Tongue?

No!!! Major impact on my choice for the next coming holiday would be; visiting a new destination that I never visited before; suggestions from my friends or colleague's (I do some research before I take their advice); interest in some new countries that I never visited, but have read about them in travel journals/books or just visiting destination where I have been before and I like it so much that I want to visit again.

I guess you mean if I prefer visiting countries where they speak my native tongue above countries where they don´t?

No, I don´t , I am from the Netherlands and would therefore only be able to go to Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao..besides I am fluent in English and Spanish and speak German and French as well...I´ve been to many different countries (more than 30) and always manage to communicate with the local people..China being the most difficult place...

NO! But as someone says, English is spoken in many countries and many people can understand (even if they can't speak).

I'm Japanese and when I visited a small town in Korea or a small island in Indonasia, no one speaks Japanese and even English, but we could communicate with gesture, smile... this is the most important. You need open mind and smile!!

Yes it would but I have managed quite well in other countries. English is spoken by most people all over the world.

Not at all, I don't know what is you major point do you want to live in the country where you travel or you are just going there like a tourist? Well, anyway no it wouldn't, I would choose to go where ever my heart leads me to go. = )

Not at all - been to several counties where English isn't the native language and not widely spoken at all - you learn your way around the language barrier.

yes if you can't be arsed to learn english then you ain't nowhere i wanna go

no way...
