You will have a hard time to find it because it’s not known internationally ha. It’s a French island called La Réunion (or Reunion Island if you want an English name).
Oooooooh! Coool!! (tbh I was prepared to just list all the Islands I could find close to Africa… hahaha)
I wanna say I’ve heard of it but that might just be my imagination. But I looked it up and that’s SO COOL. Like idk, I just think it’s cool that you come from there…
Hey to be fair, we still get the people who think we’re in Europe, or near Alaska, or Japan… or a state of Australia.
So I understand. But I imagine yours is a lot worse, and I feel for you!
What’s the weirdest question you’ve ever got?
Some people asked if we’re riding cows since they suppose that we don’t have cars. Or in middle school our German correspondents thought we didn’t have Nutella and gave everyone Nutella when they visited. I didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. I heard worse but can’t think of anything more.
It’s basically like in France but with a tropical weather. The food and traditions are influenced by India and Chinese to. We listen to all kind of music but Latin music and telenovelas are quite appreciated.
I had the same question but with giraffes… we don’t even have giraffes here LOL
“It’s basically like in France but with a tropical weather” Well dayum. Must add it to my Travel Bucket List then. “The food and traditions are influenced by India and Chinese too” Yeahp definitely going on the bucket list.
How many people on the island?
hahahahahaha oh gosh. oh dear. sometimes I worry for the world.
Our island is called an “intense” island. There are beaches but there are more interesting things. People think I can swim and dive really but no. Just enough not to die. We have beautiful mountains, good hiking places and two volcanos (one of them is still active). And a park dedicated to extreme sport and sensation just opened this month.
Well… that’s more than Iceland, so… 😀 haha
Sounds like an exciting place to visit! And right up a lot of NZ thrill seeker’s alleys. Is tourism big there?
If you’re flying to it, what port do you usually fly from? (all the questions o.o Oh and I HAVE heard of it. In passing, in tow with Mauritius I believe)
The last few years there are less tourists because of sharks attacks (if you respect the rules, sharks won’t attack you) and other islands’ competition.
We have two airports one in the north in the capital and one in the south. You can fly directly from France but there’s no a lot of other European direct flight. I had to take an other flight in Paris to go to Berlin for example.
Seeing you mentioning Mauritius, you surely must have heard of it too 😀 We refer Mauritius as our “sister island”. My mother actually comes from there.
Do people just not follow the rules because they’re stupid or…?
Ahhh ok, direct from France. Cool. Still, Charles De Gaule Airport is the second largest in Europe so it’s a good central point. Plus, well, I guess stop overs are usual for me… being so far away from everything.
Hehe yeahp! I have a friend in Australia who’s mother was from Mauritius!
Only tourists and surfers don’t respect rules because they’re on an island so they have the right to go in the see even if it’s forbidden for their security. Glad you understand how it feels being so far away T_T
Oh that’s interesting to know people from different places and even more if it’s relatives 😀
Ahh I see. Is all surfing forbidden?
Mmm yess I think you win most geographically isolated Beanie of the month though. How’d you get into Kdrama? Through telenovas?
Yeah! It’s pretty cool. I think I worked out the other day I have friends in 10 different timezones O.o
Surfing is not forbidden in itself. When there’s bad weather or when there are sharks the red flag is raised and people aren’t allowed to go into water. I have yet to meet someone from another place so far way. I first started watching Jdramas since I was interested in mangas, animes and Jrock/Visual kei. Then a classmate in high school was a kpop fan like me and introduced me to Kdramas.
Oh that’s a lot ! I have friends in Europe, Thailand and one just went to study in Australia last month.
Ahhh okay that makes sense. And yet some people like to ignore sense, huh. :/
I guess statistically the odds of that are very low huh haha. But it’s nice when you meet mutuals.
Ahhhh that’s really cool! And yes, the natural progression haha. I’m like going the other way: Kdrama-kpop-jrock-manga-anime 😛
Yes. So many. All over. It’s hard. Can’t be everywhere at once 🙁 I miss them haha
Ehhh nice! See, you’re collecting time zones too! 😀
Everyone had basically the same exposure to Kdramas and a connection to Asian culture ha.
I’m nowhere near your impressive collection but it’s still good.
Neeeewww Zeeeealand. Also known as Middle Earth. Which makes the answer to your question technically D, but obviously we don’t like being called ‘Australia’ so… Oceania? 😉 🙂 hahahaha
Hahaha I do apologise it’s kinda automatic. I have lots of close Australian friends though, really, it’s just fun to tease you guys 😉
And noooo definitely not Murica!
