In this special episode, I talk with Chris who is a native Luxembourger. Chris talks about his experiences living in his country, where almost 50% of residents are foreigners. We talk about the communicating aspects in a multilingual and multicultural environment but most importantly how often native Luxembourgish persons feel secluded and alienated in their own country, when they have little opportunity to speak in their native language. On the other hand and personally for Chris, he expresses his curiosity for the diverse people he meets and his appreciation for how foreigners bring a different perspectives to Luxembourg.
