I was wondering recently if you had insights into what you plan on doing with Esperanto once you've mastered it. Or, if you already speak it well, what do you do with it?

There are no right or wrong answers because everyone has their own reasons but I thought it would be fun to see where this goes.

I have traveled with Pasporta Servo and have visited the IJK. I am planning to visit the UK and IJK in Cuba. For those with some spare time in their vacations, I strongly recommend going to meetings like these.

Naw how cute no one wants to say that they learnt it as a secret language between friends ridulo.gif

I chose to learn it for something to do, then for the not so humble reason of saying I can speak a language other than English (strangely nowadays I can only speak Japanese with not-too-shabby pronunciation, but while Esperanto is a bit hard to speak I know heaps more words).
Finally it came down to the point of being a hobby and a way to make friends/exchange knowledge etc.

'International Communication' - I like the sound of that. Universalaj Kongresoj, yes, when circumstances permit! Also national ones. Apart from that, to me it's been a hobby. The idea of becoming fluent in a second language, as a consequence of my own free decision, did appeal to me.

I already know Latin and Spanish and since about 90% or the words are cognates with either of the 2 plus english I thought it would be an easy language to learn.
