Can learning a foreign language hack a country? Apparently it does.
Both Claudio (Italian) and Muezz (Swedish) are living in Lithuania. They, like everyone else, struggled to learn local language: people kept talking to them in English, they spoke in English back and it went over like a vicious circle over and over again. Until one day when they did something else that turned them from foreigners into local Lithuanians -- they hacked a country.
In their 10min talk they explain exactly how they did it and what you can do if you want to do the same.
Claudio: Growing up in a time where there was no Internet, Claudio had a lot of time to explore naturally given things, but as soon as he got his first Internet connection at the age of 18 everything changed.
Internet opened doors to a complete new world: from Serra San Quirico, a small town in Central Italy, to Rome where he got a bachelor in Economics. Not long after he became a manager of the famous Italian singer Lorenzo Jovanotti Cherubini and also became a curator of no.1 Italian blogger Selvaggia Lucarelli.
Muezz: Problem solver. Life learner. Life explorer. That is just a few descriptions about Muezz. Putting himself outside his own comfort zone is his greatest strength. But he was not born with this mindset. Muezz grew up in one of the most culturally diversified suburbs in Sweden. Over there he learned about different cultures and being a part of boy scouts at 8 years taught him to be “always ready”.
