Hi Robin, although I’m still officially based out of France, I’m actually in the midst of moving to the US.  But my personal interests are international business development.

Where are you based?  Your Twitter handle says Atlanta.

@atlantarobin Hi Robin, I’m in Australia and as it is 11.43pm, am off to bed! Thanks for starting this thread!

Hello and Gamarjoba to all of you!

Yes, as you can see, I live in metro Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Last year, however, I was teaching English in the Republic of Georgia (Stalin’s birthplace, a country formerly in the Soviet Union). I studied German at the University of Heidelberg for a semester back in my college days and traveled Europe to my heart’s content. Loved my time in Italy and Greece the most, but never got to France or the United Kingdom. After teaching in the other Georgia, I’ve got the bug to transform my business where It goes wherever I go, hopefully traveling the world. That’s my goal, at least — have laptop, will travel.

So even though I’m back living in Atlanta, and will always keep my base here, I would love to network with others internationally. My little laptop and I  have about a year to get everything in order, then we are on our way!

By the way, gamarjoba means hello in Georgian. While most older people there still speak Russian as a second language, their country’s first language is Georgian. (Hard to comprehend that Russian wasn’t Stalin’s native tongue; Georgian was his first language).

Sasiomovnoa! That means it was a pleasure to meet you!

Happy Networking to You All!

And to you, too, Rana.

@nickrock

Glad to meet you, Nick. Wie gehts! Sorry to report that it’s been so many years since studying German, that’s about all I know now. lol. Always manage to slowly decipher newspapers and ordering food, etc., but please forgive me, ich vergesse. I think I said I forget, but then I have forgotten that, too, lol.

Welcome to this wonderful site. There is so much to learn and so many helpful experts here, I’m sure you will all love it as much as I do.

@nickrock

I believe you’re right. It’s all about constant practice. Like ear-training when I was a voice major. Language is a lot  like studying classical music to me, but I’m definitely out of training in both areas now, lol. Alas, I’ve lost my ear for it all, so to speak.

Conas a ta tu ?

Thats How are you in Irish., Im in the Emerald Isle

Hello everyone,I live in Germany and run a language school with my husband in Iserlohn. Great to hear about this club, look forward to learning more about social media as I’m really new to all of this and have taken over this side of the business too.Best wishes

Hmm. there’s gotta be some better way to do this huh? The thread is real long and I don’t know anyone wanting to go through a list of intros.

Right?

How about a useful intro like this:Hi My Name is Jomar Hilario, I’m from the Philippines and my best Social Media Tip that I’ve applied is: Using an FB group to keep people engaged and discussing – instead of using the FB page for that. I post questions and people answer. I sell in the group too. But I tell people it’s my living room so they’re not allowed to sell w/o my permission. That keeps the group centered on my message.

How about you? Tell us your name, country and the best Social Media Tip you’ve done so far.

i’m a South African living in Ecuador, South America!

i need to improve my Spanish.. lol
