I mean if they have no established "translation" between them. I guess that you would use objects and just refer to things in that way(like holding up a pair of jeans or something) until you came up with a common language.
I guess it would be on some levels like a baby learning to speak for the first time.

We lived in Ecuador 11 yrs. The country had about 39 different tribes that did not communicate with each other. About all they had in common was a religion to kill all outsiders. So to go into the wrong tribe was bad. The Spanish and Americans have with much danger gone in there and now they can communicate . To my knowledge there were none that got together on there own.

Body language is certainly important. There are various signs that are universal, the eye flick on meeting for example. Counting on fingers is also understood, as is pointing or nodding.
It also depends on where you are travelling to. Most european languages have something in common, and I would imagine it is the same elsewhere.
