Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.

    Thanks to Nikoletta... we've got some other great hints and yummy words to learn.

    wine = kra-si

    olives = e-lies

    WHENEVER you see an 'r', it is rolled. and 'x' is a totally different sound than in english that can be hard for people to learn.
