| 22nd October 2009 Flo | - From: Lagos- Tranquility at its Best! interesting Jennie ! You are so true and I understand the Finnish people, I do know lots of the states, but not all of them, and I can guarantee you that some Americans do not know more than their own state, or city. Same in Europe, some people have never travelled for many various reasons: they can't afford it or are farmers and just can't. However in Europe more and more people travel. What I noticed too is that lots of people do quite a lot of longer week ends to fly or take the train to visite other cities in other countries Now I simply think that we get more richness in Europe due to so many different cultures, which is remarkable ! Traveling 8 years.. I am wondering how she does financially, she must have been owrking in the meanwhile....as long as this possible, and ones feels good, then do it , enjoy, as we say in French "bite the apple of life" :-) |
| 11th October 2009 Flo | - From: Chefchaouen, Not to Be Missed!!! lovely cazbah entrances ! Nice colors I guess the hot mint tea was welcome by the cold day :-) |
| 11th October 2009 Flo | - From: Porto! lovely city..never been there..will go definitely ! And you had a nice weather, splendid !!! muito obrigada para sharing :-) |
| 11th October 2009 Flo | - From: Last Day in Lisbon...... A Day of Discovery Lovely story Jennie ! Really, her boss had understood everything and I also recognise a way to retain their good employees (this is their style HOWEVER, he is very special as a man .... nice! You are so right Jennie, dream and realise them, step by step we can take the path which leads us toward the realisation of it :-) Love to you ! |
| 10th October 2009 Flo | - From: Lisbon Yes you are right it's probably the cheapest country in west Europe :-) Lisboa is a wonderful city and people are so kind and helpful. Near Belem there was a nice pastry place where you could buy pasteis de Nata ...the yummiest thing ! did you try them? bisous |

| 9th October 2009 Florence | - From: Mostar Thanks dear Jennie for sharing Mostar life...I love this city and as you said they really suffered a lot. We cannot imagine it. It was terrible. The bridge was totally destroyed, Such an historic manpower..rebuilt the same way ! They have such a humour even black and how you say they konw how to still laugh and enjoy life!!! They get so passionated, I like them very much :-) |

| 6th October 2009 Flo | - From: The Destruction of Sarajevo I was also very moved when entering Sarajevo...poor people just think that they did not have water during more than a 1000 days, more than 3 years...that was really terrible for them. However I find them so warm and joyfull, sharing a lot! Barcasija is the heart of the city and I adored it. Remember that Sarrajevo has always be the core of many crossroads this is the reason why 1st world war was declared there and they always suffered more..... |
| 6th October 2009 Flo | - From: Living As A Local ( The Island of Hvar, Split, and Zagreb) Yes Jelsa is magical...no other word and our time together was exquisite with deep deep talks and a nice true friendship ! Hope to see you there again:-) Hugs |
| 6th October 2009 Florence | - From: I love Dubvronik yes Dub is a jewel, the jewel of the Adriatic, such an history, when you walk on the original stones in the paths of the city. Plus you were there later in the year with less tourists, so that's gorgeous for you:-) |
| 6th October 2009 Adventuress Jen | Simple Life - From: Life, Simple or Material ? You Decide. Yes, it can and I so prefer it that way.

| 23rd March 2009 Adventuress Jen | Thank you! - From: Arrived in Santiago Hi Begonia. I had only planned on walking from Ponferrada to Santiago. Burgos to Santiago came about because I was having such a great time, I didn't want it to end. I would suggest walking from St. Jean, France. Most people start here and walk as long as they have time to and then return to finsih when able. I plan on walking it again from St. Jean. I've been told you need a month. Try to avoid summer. September is a great time. I hope this helps you. Its an incredible experience. Buen Camino! |
| 23rd March 2009 Begonia | Thank you for your experience - From: Arrived in Santiago I wondered how you walked your camino???did you walk the nearer part first then went back and walked the less busy sections??? It sounds like a good idea. Loved your photos. |

We are ready to read you more my dear Big hugs and lots of love -:) Flo |
| 26th February 2008 traveller | That's a tight schedule - From: Hello Vietnam You can do it but you won't be able to see nor experience much the culture because you will be constantly moving around. My traveling buddy and I spent 17 days in Vietnam last Dec and we felt it wasn't enough though we visited almost all parts of the country. If you like to be a bit more adventurous, rent a motorbike and ride it around to see things for yourself. We did that throughout Vietnam and it was a blast. Agree on Ha Long. One of the World Marvels when it comes to nature. |
