Welcome to Backpacktrack – the solo travel podcast for people who think “one backpack” is a personality trait. I’m Mells, your certified German potato who somehow swapped bread and bureaucracy for missed flights, hostel chaos, and way too much oversharing. If you’ve ever dreamed of running away with a backpack (or just need a laugh while pretending to work), this podcast is your sign.

Lost in Translation: Why Working Without Understanding the Language Is a Good Idea

Ever tried working in a place where you barely understand a word? Spoiler: it’s chaotic, hilarious, and honestly one of the best confidence boosts you can get.In this episode I share my work experience in Japan — yes, I’m currently hustling in a sushi restaurant, armed with only basic Japanese and a lot of hand gestures. From ordering mix-ups to unintentional comedy, I explain why everyone should, at least once in their life, work in a country where you don’t fully understand the language.Because trust me: you’ll learn faster, laugh harder, and never forget it. 🍣😂📝 Show Notes🍣 My sushi restaurant survival guide💪 How working abroad makes you way more confident🎓 The fastest way to actually learn a language (hint: not Duolingo)😂 Everyday fails that somehow turn into wins🌍 Why everyone should try working somewhere they don’t fully understand the language✨ Honest, chaotic, and proof that lost-in-translation jobs are unforgettable.

🎒 Moral of the story: You don’t need perfect grammar to start your adventure. Sometimes, being lost in translation is exactly where the magic happens.
