I have a passport, but aside from some half-remembered Spanish courses from high school, I'm completely monolingual.

Sadly, the US prohibits travel to Cuba for vacations, otherwise I'd gladly put some money into their economy.

Vietnam gets so many tourists you can travel pretty much anywhere without a word of the language, though knowing the basics isn't going to hurt.

Same is true of most of the world honestly. Is it an American thing to think you can't travel without language skills?
