Can you imagine navigating life across three different continents, all while juggling more than ten languages? This episode of "Hear My True Story" takes you on an emotional journey through my multilingual upbringing in Uganda and my subsequent adaptation to life in Germany. From the intense struggle of balancing multiple languages to facing the harsh reality of losing touch with my mother tongue, this episode uncovers the hidden sacrifices and challenges that come with such a complex linguistic life.
