I live in Sweden so I speak Swedish with my family. I have family in Australia to whom I speak English. The major part of my family on my father's side is from Poland and mostly speak Polish. My Polish isn't good enough for me to have conversations with, so they speak the best Swedish they can with me and my brothers (my father speaks Polish).
When it comes to my friends they're from all sorts of parts of the world. I speak with those who doesn't speak Swedish in English. Three of my teachers (Two of whom are from the US, and the other from the UK) I speak English to.

So on a regular basis I speak about 50/50 Swedish/English. ^^

At home I speak Russian, of course. But in our country some people, especially young men, tend to use some english words in usual sentences and phrases...

Being raised and residing in Holland, I speak Dutch on a daily basis, so it is my native language. I also speak Danish and German.

Our native is Spanish but I do speak a lot of English with my parents and my friends. Even the friends that don't speak English know already what I say when I speak to them in English lol ( they are eager to learn so when I say something they don't understand and I explain so they do next time <3. )

Most of the time I speak Chinese with my Parents, Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents. I speak both chinese and english to my brother and cousins. And as for my friends, it really depends on who I'm talking to. most of the time its english, but sometimes I talk to them in Chinese or Japanese.

I speak Norwegian with my family and friends. Though with my friends I tend to just say random stuff in other languages just for the fun of it. whee
