What is something like a hobby or skill that you belive almost anybody should give a try, and what makes your suggestion so good compared to other things?
i feel like this is a descent question i guess.

I am Polish native that can easily read Ukrainian, English and also some German and I have no clue what that sentence means in Esperanto :D. I can only guess that “lernis” is probably something like “learning” and “mondo” refers to “world” (guess based purely on ‘Le Monde’ - French newspaper). Rest looks like some random Lithuanian stuff. I don’t think knowledge of Esperanto could give me any advantage when traveling across Europe. Idea is cool but to be honest English is the new lingua franca and I think that’s good because it’s easy to pick up and already widespread.
You weren’t the target audience for my initial comment.
“I learned Esperanto because I want to have friends in all the countries of the world.”
If you’re curious…
“Mi” - pronoun meaning I/me
“lernis” - learned (The root is “lern-”. The following rules apply to all verbs: “-i” is the infinitive form, “-is” is past tense, “-as” is present tense, “-os” is future tense, “-us” is conditional tense (kind of like could/would), and “-u” is imperative/command form.)
“Esperanton” - obviously Esperanto, but the “-n” suffix denotes a direct object.
“ĉar” - because
“volas” - (verb, present tense) want
“havi” - (verb, infinitive) to have
“amikojn” - (noun, direct object, plural) - root is “amik-”, the “-o” suffix denotes a noun, “-j” makes it plural, and then the “-n” for direct object again
“en” - in
“ĉiaj” - all
“la” - the (this is the only article in the language; incidentally, there is no indefinite article)
“landoj”- countries (“-o” is noun, “-j” is plural)
“de” - of (there are actually multiple words that can mean “of” but that’s another topic entirely)
“mondo” - world
The letter “ĉ” is pronounced like “ch”; Esperanto doesn’t do two-letter phonemes because one of its foundational principles is one letter = one sound.
