Mi parolas esperonton.

In fact my entire family, including Elder Daughter's boyfriend are Esperantists. We learned it as a way of expanding the girl's educational horizons. It seems to have done its job, both girls are comfortable with language, and learning languages. No small feat for a USA-ian.

I have to disagree about Esperanto having no culture of its own. There is, it just isn't - can't be - a national culture. Travel, books (I read Pinocciho in E-o, translated from the Italian), magazines, music (all-time favorite music group - Kajto), and general education and socializing are high points. I've opened my home on less than a day's notice to traveling Esperantists - it's just what we do. (Didn't regret it, either)

All in all, Esperanto has been good to me and my family. I love the ideals it has of peace and open communication between all peoples.
