Hello!

I thought I would do a different kind of post today.

You see, I sometimes confuse one blogger for another blogger especially when they are new to my blog.

I only realized today that a blogger buddy whom I had been interacting with for some time is actually another blogger with the same name and from a totally different country! One is from Poland and the other from Belgium!

I thought they were both one and the same person!

This has actually happened a couple of times, particularly namesake bloggers with similar blog templates.

So, what I would love for you to do for me today is to just say "Hello" in your language and tell me which country you are from in the comments.

And if you are from the US, it would be cool if you could mention your state too.

To start the ball rolling ...

Apa Khabar?  I am from Malaysia.

Well, it appears from many of the comments I received that some of you thought  I was American and lived in the US!




In case you are wondering where Malaysia is...

  8. Servus und Hallo, liebe Veronica! :-)
    I realized from the beginning that you live in Malaysia. (I could read it in your blog profile - and I did, because I was curious, for example because of your blog title and the term "ramen", which I associate with Asian food ;-))
    I think you already know that I live in Austria, very close to our capital Vienna. But I'm happy to tell you again :-DDD
    All the best,
    Traude

  13. Yeah, I know about the name problem, lol. Well, you just live "close" to Florida, at the East end of the USA. I moved 9 hours East from California, but not quite Florida:):) I remember the word "apa" from my parents (who spoke Indonesian:)). Thank you for sharing the stunning beach with All Seasons.
    Regretfully, I think I have to start going over to a simple copy and paste perma link in your comment, like the rest of the wordpress people. I'll explain more in the post on Sunday
    Right now underneath your post there's an ad "stop your wordpress headaches and pay just $147 (per year)" - that would even be a greater headache for me!

  40. I have a couple of ladies who link up that I confuse, too, so I can relate.

    This is a great idea! I like to know where people are from to better understand their gardens and weather and such, but not all make that info known on their blogs.

    I am Betty from New Zealand, originally from Kansas.

    I'm happy to see you at 'My Corner of the World' this week! Thanks for linking up.

  44. Hello Veronica. I knew somehow that you were from Malaysia. I love having blogging friends from all over. It is one of the best parts of blogging and a great way to learn a bit of geography and world history and culture. Thank you for your posts from Malaysia. I’m from the State of Oregon in the Northwest Corner of the USA. Since we retired from work, we have been traveling In the winter and for the last ten years have been in Florida for about half the year. (But we stayed home in Oregon this last time because of the pandemic.). Florida is all the way across the country , over 5,000 miles.
