Hi Arura. I love your handle. May I ask what inspired it? I hope you have many an ejoyable moment as well.

Welcome to FF. :welcome1:

Arura · #3 06-08-2005, 03:33 PM

Sorry since english is not my native language, could you please confirm that you with handle you mean my username? Awaiting your reply before I write further.
And thanks for the happy welcome

Shake · #4 06-08-2005, 03:34 PM

It's a nice palindromic handle. Very cool!

I'm having a surreal moment seeing your post count at I, and the next reply is by the prolific liv, in excess of V-bar MMMCCC!

:welcomef:

livius drusus · #5 06-08-2005, 03:39 PM

I did indeed mean your username, Arura, which I think is very beautiful. :yup:

I see from your site that you speak Norwegian. Are you actually from Norway or have you just learned the language?

:yes!:

Arura · #6 06-08-2005, 04:02 PM

Arura comes from a plant name believed in the Ayurvedic system to be a panacea (cure-all).
I see the Norwegian flag in your signature, are we from the same country perhaps?

That's fascinating. May you have the same effect on FF, then.

I actually don't have a signature, but used the Norwegian to end my post in honor of your country. I am a US citizen by birth and heritage, but was raised in Italy and lived there for 18 years.

:yes!:

to the FF, Arura.

Arura · #9 06-08-2005, 04:31 PM

So many lively animated emoticons you have here.
I just came back from a trip in Tuscany couple of weeks ago, you are lucky to live there. Where in Italy are you livius?

Dingfod · #10 06-08-2005, 04:50 PM

Ah, Italia! Never been there.

Welcome to FF, Arura.

I'm afraid I live in the US now, but the bulk of my years abroad I lived in Rome, which, as you know, is just a step away from Tuscany. Did you have a good trip?

Arura · #12 06-08-2005, 07:48 PM

I had a wonderful trip. I love Rome as well. Do you have plans to come back to Italy?

I'm no expert, but I think it's Italian. I don't know why she chose to say hi that way either, though. :scratch:

livius drusus · #20 06-10-2005, 07:42 PM

Because of Arura's recent trip to Tuscany, I suspect.

Speaking of which, I'm afraid I don't have any plans to return to the Caput Mundi anytime soon, Arura, but since all roads lead there, I know I'll wind up there eventually.
