Most places will speak some English. Language shouldn't be a requirement for your travels. Many great places that are not predominantly English speaking

Buenos Aires (spg only I think), Costa Rica, Mexico, Canada, Spain, London, Ireland, Hong Kong. Many other countries are decent to navigate around by learning some simple phrases before you go so I don't think not speaking the language should ever dissuade you from going where you'd like to explore.

You don't have to learn a language to travel. Japan, for example, fits your requirements, but you can't expect everyone there to know English (though many will know a bit)

For all you retail people...are you experiencing a very slow holiday season? I am a retail manager and I feel like this season has been freakishly slow.

Is anyone else experiencing this in their market?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
