I'm so grateful to whoever created this site because it's fantastic. They've connected me with so many people, including some I've met during my travels. Going back to places where we used to take the time is truly wonderful, and rediscovering the joy of having real things to talk about. Je remercie vraiment ceux qui ont créé ce site parce qu’il est super. Ils m’ont mis en correspondance avec plusieurs personnes et même certaines que j’ai pu rencontrer pendant mes voyages. Revenir autant où on prenait le temps et vraiment génial et redécouvrir le fait d’avoir vraiment des choses à se dire!
