Well, mine's rather boring...

Australia: English
France: English
Germany: English
Netherlands: English
Belgium (the short time I was there): English
Mexico (both times): English with Americans and Spanish with Mexicans.

Hopes for the future
Argentina: Spanish
Brazil: Portuguese
Italy: Italian

I can barely speak any Portuguese and virtually no Italian at the present time, but I've begun my Portuguese
studies and will be moving rapidly through the language soon. Hopefully Italian will come later, but I also have
aspirations to learn a Maya language to use in Mexico. All of this while trying to maintain and grow in my
Spanish endeavors, mind you.
