RE: ARE YOU A FRIENDLY NOMAD
(Preview)
Thought I would start a new topic seeing the solos's forum is pretty quiet. Thought I would ask how friendly are you when travelling? Would you give someone a cup of sugar or an egg if they needed one? Do you avoid eye contact? Are you nice to someone else's dog? Give some instances! CHEERS Helen
