I NEED TO GETAWAY

Bonjour.

Conduisez-moi a l’a’eroport, s’il vous plait

C’est tout, merci

Translation:

Hello

Please take me to the airport

That’s all, thankyou.

I need to getaway. Somewhere. Anywhere.

Oh, and I'm learning french online for when I go to Europe in September.

And here I speak German.

I can't say that I will ever learn French. I think that I would just invade from the East first, and convert the locals. (Probably easier than learning the language.)

I got by in France without speaking very much French. Hit Ireland instead. No language problems and very friendly people.

Stormin: I only plan on learning basic French - I did it in high school so I thought it's easiest to roll with something I'm at least partly familiar with

Todd: I've heard the French are rude unless you attempt to speak french? I'm thinking about adding a 6 day backpackers tour around Ireland before I start my Contiki tour in Sept

Sufercam: Sure - I'm looking for a travel buddy =) Tho you live on the Gold Coast...what'd your prob. haha

Simon: You made me jealous!!! I can't wait to hear of your adventures! Once again, I'm jealous!!

Graffiti: Thanks...and, um, translation?

Single Guy: I definitely plan to hit up the US next year...if $$$ permit - I'd like to travel all over the US for 3 months! Any reccomendations?

Simon: That's a good idea... maybe I can convince her to come back to Aus and travel Aus with her!!!

Arq Torres: Thanks. And I will get to Mexico one day. I love Tequila too much not to visit.

Graffiti: Thanks...Another friend saying to add to my vocabulary!

I wanna come too!

- good idea to learn French. The French treat you a lot better if you make the effort and then they end up speaking English with you. Frustrating if you are trying to practice (such as I was when I was there) but good if your French really really sucks.

Simon- AWWWW thanks for thinking of lil ol' me! I would love to get away - might be going to teach English in Italy in August for 10 days but we'll see.

Damn job!
