“If you talk to a man in a language he understands,
that goes to his head. If you talk to him in
his language, that goes to his heart.”

About Chris Lewis

Hellooo, 你好, xin chào, اسلام علیکم, and नमस्ते! My name’s Chris, and the best way to sum me up is I’m a traveling polyglot that makes Youtube videos. I use language to interact with the local people and show you a different, more humble and representative side of the countries I go to. Life of the common people.

Where are you from?

Colorful Colorado in the United States, born and raised!

How many languages do you speak?

I speak English (native), Mandarin Chinese, Vietnamese, Hindi/Urdu, and baby level Spanish. Currently learning Nepali.

How did you learn to speak so many languages?

I will have a detailed course coming soon, but the short story is I have a background in linguistics, and use various scientific tools to make my language learning more efficient. Language is pretty easy when you use a scientifically tested system to approach it.

What’s your job apart from Youtube?

Youtube is my only job at the moment! It’s a full time adventure, no time for other work!
