Just another hobby I've always been interested in languages while in school. For me it was a challenge to discover how a word could change from a country to anothe rone. Now after travelling for one year abroad, I want to know more languages to be able to speak with locals, see how they live and not just be the usual tourist taking pictures of places.

Not just another hobby

I've always been interested in languages at school (or: I've always been interested in languages ever since high school). For me it was fascinating yet surprising to discover that a word could change so much from country to country! (or: For me at first it was a challenge to realize that a word can change so much in different languages/country to country; or: I was surprised to learn that there are so many ways to say a word/ so many ways to speak/ so many ways to say the same thing) Now after traveling a year abroad, I want to learn more and more languages so to be able to mingle (or: talk with/ chat with) with the locals and see how they live. I don't want to be just another tourist taking pictures of random places.

A favorite hobby.
At school, I was always interested in languages.
It was always fascinating to see how a word can change from one language to another.
After traveling for a year abroad, I want to learn more languages to be able to speak with locals, see how they live and not just be the usual tourist taking pictures.

Hi, Valou, Good writing. Some confusion about the meaning of your first sentence: "I've always been interested in languages while in school." The use of "always" and "while in school" are causing the confusion.

Instead, you could say, for example:

"I've always been interested in languages."

"I've been interested in languages since I began to study them in high school." (or university, or whenever you began).

("Have been" for an action that started in the past and continues today.)

("since" + past tense (began) + inf (to study) + them (pronoun direct object) instead of "while")

Best of luck! At least this virus is giving us time to learn more languages before travelling again.
