Bonjour

You are quite the adventurer. I'll travel right along with you in spirit. And the Great Master knows that when we are done with our foray, my poor bones will be aching.

Hi Veronique,
I'm 55, married and live in Cronulla, a beachside suburb of Sydney Australia and have just set out trying to learn the French language AGAIN !! I'm a Beginner still but if you write back to me in French I could have a stab at understanding it.
Bonne chance apprendre le Maori (I know that's probably terribbly poor French!! :) )

Bonjour from Lafayette, Louisiana U.S.A.

Je regret je ne suis pas Néo-Zélandaise et aussi pas capable d´offrire ma compagnie, mais je vous souhaite bonne chance et un voyage magnifique :) Jamais perd la balance! Citation magnifique!

I don't think I am what you are looking for but I wanted to let you know that I love your Hitchens quote. Hope you don't mind if I stole it for my own profile. Have a great trip!
