As a bilingual person, do you dream in both languages, or one particular language?

In my case after living in another country for about 3-6 months I've started having dreams in new language. It came more less together with having inner dialogue in the head in new language. New one replaced the old one.
That just means your language is part of your memory, not that it is necessary for it to function.
