British Girl speaking in Malay! This was before I started learning malay properly. I love languages as I feel like it’s such an amazing way to connect with people. When you start learning a language you can go from 0 to basic conversation in only an hour if you know how! What language should I learn next? #muslimconvert #indonesia #malaysia
