Making friends around the world thru BookCrossing

In 2004 BookCrossing Member Mojosmom wrote an article;

Yes, it's true. For too long, I dithered around, wanting to study Italian but never signing up for a class. Then I found BookCrossing, and now I am happily learning la lingua d'amore. What's the connection? The Italian language forum! One of the reasons I put off taking a class was that I had no place to practice; now I hang out in that forum, and on the Italian Mirror Site as well, reading and occasionally even posting. What a warm welcome I've had there! No one laughs at my mistakes, but, knowing I'm a student, they politely correct me. And so I learn.

This is just one of many examples of BookCrossing's contributions to international friendships and understanding. Whether or not this was in Ron's mind when he created the site, for me it has been an unlooked-for pleasure. I have learned so much about other countries ( who knew what "root" meant in Australia! ), and have made new friends and sent my books all over the globe.
