Learn a language by selling in a market

I am an American living in Poland.   And for fun sometimes I go to Ukraine and buy things cheap and sell them in the Polish open air market.  I make some money but more important selling things in a stand all day I learn a lot of Polish.  It is a good technique to learn a language.  In any city in the world you see foreigners, such a people from china selling things and speaking the language of the country.  You can learn this way too.  It is not only free but its a great way to immerse yourself in the language.  It is very funny by the way to meet Chinese in the market who do not speak English but only Polish.  As an American it takes me by suprises.
