1. When my parents were still married, me and my siblings were all bi-lingual, English being our first language and Spanish being our second, since my father was Mexican. After their divorce, since we were no longer around any Mexicans or Spanish speakers, we didn't speak it, anymore, so of course, we lost it. I'm pretty bummed out about that, now. And in High School and College, I took French. I was pretty good at it and could even read and write it. But again, if you don't use a language with anyone over a long period of time, you lose it. I remember a bit from both languages, but not enough to carry on a conversation, sadly. I wish I'd have kept on the Spanish. If I had, I'd be Tri-lingual.

2. Well, English is the first language here in the States but there are SO MANY languages I hear around my area, anyhow; Spanish, Russian, various Asian dialects, various Middle Eastern, etc.

3. English and Spanish. In French, only to five

4. Sadly, I've NEVER been to an Overseas country. I'd like to, but sadly, no funds to do so.

5. This one is HARD! I mostly want to go to Far Western Europe, where all of my ancestry lies; England, Scotland, Ireland, France and Spain. I can't narrow it down to just one....
