| 18th February 2008 Candi V. | are you successful at this....? - From: Thessaloniki Trauma Ali, if you want to be a successful travel photojournalist, do your homework before you leave home. Get an education before you start making assumptions about an entire culture. Your article was painful to read, not that I'm in love with Thessaloniki but because your snide, bratty, and pompous air was written between every line. |

| 23rd January 2008 Chazlin | Good Times! - From: Rio Carnival 2008 - the warm-up! Loved the photos and blog on Rio Carnaval. I spent three & a half years in Rio back in '54 through half of '58. It was the best time of my life. In those years they used to hand out pressurized canisters of perfume to the masses and the whole city would have this glorious smell. I learned they had to stop the practice as people would huff the cannister. Too bad. Anyway, Enjoy! The best, Chazlin |

| 19th December 2007 travellingmum | Glad you made it to Brissy! - From: 3 Months in Brisbane So glad to hear that you enjoyed Brisbane. So many blogs say how boring/regular etc that Brisbane is. I also live near the city in Kangaroo Point. I think that maybe you have to live in Brisbane to see how great it is, I suppose to someone passing thru it is just a small laidback city. I was just going thru your old blogs and was happy to see my hometown here |

| 9th November 2007 Vicky | Underwater Camera - From: Diving Around Sipadan, Sibuan, Mabul and Kapali Firstly WOW I am in awe of your turtles pics, just out of interest I was wondering what underwater camera/housing you use. Only ever used a Canon Ixus with housing and the new olympus which I know arent really gonna produce pictures like yours. Do you have a dead expensive professional camera? Let me know thanks Vicky |
