Did you know that there are over 7000 languages in the world?

4. Discover the heritage of our ancestors in a museum
A trip to a museum is always a good idea. You can learn a lot about our ancestors: their way of living, the tools they used on a daily basis, or their customs and habits.
It can get especially interesting when we’re traveling to another country.
You’ve finally found an exhibit that interests you the most, but the description board is in a language that you don’t understand.
How to read it?
Simply take your Vasco out and use the photo translator feature.
You can take a picture with an in-built camera and learn a valuable lesson about our ancestors.
5. Visiting friends from abroad or having them over at your place
Some time ago, you were participating in a student exchange program conducted by your university. Or maybe you were an Au Pair once?
Both can be great experiences. You could see for yourself what it’s like to live in a foreign country. You also met people from all over the world.
Some of them turned out to be great friends. They actually invited you to visit them in their hometown on the other side of the globe.
Let’s say you’re able to communicate with your friends, but you want to meet their family as well.
And their friends, of course.
How can Vasco help you?
With voice translator, you can speak with anyone, anywhere in the world. In 76 languages!
The same goes for when you invite your student exchange friends to your house. Your family may be unable to communicate with them because of the language barrier.

6. Connecting with a family from abroad
Let’s say you want to communicate with your son-in-law or daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, he or she doesn’t speak your language. There’s also a chance they are raising their children in a foreign tongue.
Not understanding your family’s language is definitely an undesirable situation.
That’s where Vasco Translator comes to help you!
Use this universal translator to break all language barriers.
You can now connect with your grandchildren, your son-in-law’s family and even meet their friends.
7. Seeing a foreign country from a local perspective
Visiting other countries is a great way to broaden your horizons. You can also gain an interesting perspective, clear your head, and simply take some time off your daily life.
However, we may only be experiencing those countries on the surface. Gaining a local perspective when sightseeing is yet another level of traveling.
How to do it?
You know what the biggest attractions are, you know the best restaurants in the city, but did you know that there is a vendor who sells locally-made preserves at one of the lesser-known streets? He uses ingredients collected only in a specific region.
And did you know that there’s a great bar with a friendly atmosphere in the city’s outskirts? They serve local food and pour beer that isn’t available anywhere else in the world.
The most popular monument in the city isn’t only a tourist attraction. It’s also a meeting place for students.
But how can you know all that? It’s not in the tourist guide!
Well, these are information that are passed on by the locals themselves. Use your AI translator to speak to them and ask about all the local curiosities.
Conclusion
But what about the Internet connection? You need this to make everything work. You won’t catch a Wi-Fi hotspot everywhere. Using your own data abroad may be expensive, too.
You don’t have to worry about that as well!
Vasco Translator has a built-in SIM card which provides free lifetime Internet access for translations in nearly 200 countries.
You don’t have to make any additional installations. Your universal translator will work right out-of-the-box, forever!
All you need to do is to travel, explore and try new things. Vasco Translator will take care of everything else!
