"I'm Karin from Bolivia, a pleasure to meet you, let me know your email address."

A more proper translation might be "Are you rich do you want to marry me?"

So how would I tell her "I'm not rich but wouldn't say no to saucy weekend in Bolivia??!!"

Joking aside, thanks for translating John.
It seems strange she should want my email address. I dont know the girl!!

Probably not a girl, and probably not in Bolivia. More likely a scammer somewhere else in the world.

Manzmann sorry that was me

...its ...A job

and you can work from home

all you have to do is talk sexy over email and say you are a girl and " Oh i am doing "this" and "that" to myself ...very naugthy things" I cant go into details HemeolaMan is too young to read

.......beats working the factory.

ps. nevermind replying , i think we have enough customers atm, we will call you

in the meantime.. Il try and get an ok from my superviser to send you a botlle of sauce, because at our company we dont like to discriminate against people with no money, "we dont belive that you should go unsauced because of the size of your bank balance !!" everyone is equal

thats our motto.
