De Goede Gesprekken #12: Linguistic and emotional commuting
15 February 2023

Federico Gobbo, professor of Interlinguistics and Esperanto, experienced that himself and started a podcast about it during the first lockdown in 2020: The Commuters. Dean Marieke de Goede joins him to discuss podcasting, language, mobility and identity. 'All polyglots know this: when you speak another language, you are a slightly different version of yourself.'
