Have you ever been stuck in a country wanting to be polite but having no idea how to even say 'please' or 'thank you'? or have you ever needed to get somewhere quickly but been frustrated because you couldn't even ask for basic directions in the local language?

(PRWEB) July 20, 2006 -- Have you ever been stuck in a country wanting to be polite but having no idea how to even say 'please' or 'thank you'? or have you ever needed to get somewhere quickly but been frustrated because you couldn't even ask for basic directions in the local language?

World Nomads staff have been and that’s what led them to create the World Nomads Language Guide Podcasts.

“It’s that feeling of being seen as a complete tourist that sits uncomfortably with most of our World Nomads (http://www.worldnomads.com/?utm_source=prweb&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=prweb_pod) and it’s generally compounded when you can’t even ask for basic directions. So we decided to do something about it!” said Global Marketing Manager, Chris Noble.

“We didn’t want to do the standard listen repeat language guides so that’s why we came up with around 30 key phrases that most travelers would need and placed them inside a conversation that you might have when on the road.”

“We have our World Nomad, Scott, on a train station in Paris, in a silk shop in Vietnam and even a bar in Tokyo, conversing and learning the language with the help of a local. We also have just the phrases at the end of each podcast so you can learn with ease, any time you want.”

You can currently download Spanish, French, Vietnamese, Japanese and Italian language guide podcasts free of charge from the World Nomads website World Nomads Adventures website (http://journals.worldnomads.com/language-guides/post/1174.aspx?utm_source=prweb&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=prweb_pod) with more to follow and this is just the start of World Nomads push to become the ultimate travel companion.
