To answer {do djica lonu citka ma} with "anything," I'd just say {roda}, which here means "for each x, I('d) want to eat x," not that "I want to eat the-mass-of everything" as in English (maybe I misunderstand {roda}?).
But answering with a noun (any/where/thing) is sorta an Englishism. In Chinese you'd probably use an adverb (随便/suibian). You could answer {do djica lonu citka ma} with an attitudinal. Maybe {se'inai} "other-oriented." Or maybe {ri .aucu'i} or {.aucu'i go'i lonu citka makau} "indifference." Or even {roda .a'u} "interest."
