Hi everybody!

My name's Mai. I'm Vietnam. And now I want to make friend with almost person who like English and feel it's realy very important today! Because when you know English you will talk with a lot of people in the world. Especially, you can go traveling around the world but no need any guider! And when you work if you can speak, write english fluently you will be paid a lot of money!

So, I want to make friend with you to improve my capability in english. And we can share a lot good thing even bad thing to each other! Are you agree with me?

hi le mai. how are doing there i hope you are trying to improve your knowledge of english and giving your best. I'm Eegi from Mongolia and have you ever heard about our country. I live in Ulaanbaatar the capital of mongolia. as for me i speak german, russian just a little sweden, and now want to improve my english. i also think  when man speaks fluently and without any problem then it's the best way to earn one's living. Mongolia is changing now and began to cooperate with many other countries in the branch such as culture, sports, investment, especially in the mining industry. but when i see the people who are liveing in poor condition, of course they are very lazy. Our welt is big and bright. there is too many oppotunity to earn money and instead of sitting nothing to do they must look around them what is going on and find out  what is the best way to do something useful for them. this is just my mind. you know people don't want to work hard and want to find big money just in simple way. not all people do so but i mean most people that i've met in my life. i'm 39 years old. my hobby is ESL. If someone tries he will see the benefit someday. this is my goal.

thank you for your attention and please say and write to me about many interesting things which occurred in your country and in your life. that will be very funny and help us to communicate in our further friendship

"when you know English you will talk with a lot of people in the world. Especially, you can go traveling around the world but no need any guide."

As an English speaker, I have to say that is not true, I have often needed guides when I traveled and it is arrogant for me to expect other people to speak English when English is not the language of the country.

In fact I do not expect it. A lot of communication is also physically conveyed through body language and tone of voice, rather than just words.

"And when you work if you can speak, write english fluently you will be paid a lot of money! So, I want to make friends with you to improve my ability in English. And we can share many good things and even some bad things with each other!"

The real advantage is that you are bilingual. Your language skills or lack thereof are translated from your native language.  I used to think that adding Spanish to my repertoire would increase my marketability but more recently I have decided that my technical knowledge cannot transcend the cultural barrier as easily.

Languages demonstrate the way we think, so for those who do manage to become multilingual the skill is that they are able to evolve the way they think.
