No, not in my case (and I suspect most others) anyway, it certainly makes things easier and less stressful but is in no way a necessity.

The language barrier has put me off places like Japan though, where I've heard from various visitors that it has been a pain to get about, due to neither parties being able to speak much of each others lingo and the signage being Japanese only in the main.
