Hi, given that you are not a native English speaker, it might be useful to edit your bio in Firefox using the English dictionary add-on, it contains an awful lot of typos which may not make a good impression on anyone coming across it for other than hitchhiking reasons...

Thanks for your edits to [[Raiatea]], exotic locations are always good. However, please don't write in first person on Hitchwiki ("I found it more difficult", "It took me about 4 or 5 hours"). On a community-edited site like a wiki, it is not clear who "I" or "me" is. We try to keep things here in a neutral third-person tone independent of any one user's experience, so there is no need to mention yourself at all. If you could please go back and change the article slightly, it would save your fellow editors some work. [[User:CRCulver|CRCulver]] ([[User talk:CRCulver|talk]]) 15:32, 22 June 2014 (CEST)

Welcome to Hitchwiki! Good to see even more contributions to the pages related to Chile! BTW, "started hitchhiking in June 2009" and longest distance "in April 2007"? I'm curious :) guaka 11:27, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Typos

Thanks to Prino who made me aware of some typing mistakes.
