| 2nd September 2009 Jenn Sharp | Hands Free Candle Power - From: Mumma Maya Does the girl standing in front of Dave have any gitch or swimmers on?? looks like she's NAKED! ha |
| 18th August 2009 Danny & Jillian | Fun in Xela - From: Mumma Maya Looks like we missed out on some great Xela adventures..... We'll just have to rehash in London one of these days.. |
| 20th April 2009 Penny Rymer | Easter Parades - From: All Sawdust, No Chocolate Another fascinating blog! How lovely to read about Easter being celebrated in such a wonderful way. The pictures created in the sawdust were amazing. Have a great time in Honduras, hope you get some good diving. |
| 11th April 2009 Karen Couch | 36 cents!! - From: Sailing Into Paradise I would love to now where the man who swam through the canal in 1928 kept his 36 cents!! Fantastic sea voyage, shame about the sickness. |
| 10th April 2009 Penny Rymer | Paradise - From: Sailing Into Paradise Hi guys, wow the desciption and photos of the San Blas Islands make it sound and look like paradise. Poor Tracey, 30 hours of hell, I do feel for you. The facts on the Panama Canal were fascinating - what a brilliant piece of engineering. As usual, this and your last few blogs, have been amazing. Keep `em coming. Lots of love, Penny |
| 2nd April 2009 Couchies | News On Colombia - From: Fun Is The New Drug Hi John Not only do I reccommend Colombia but we have been travelling for a year and a half and Colombia is one of the best countries we have been to. REALLY nice people, cheap and beautiful. We were travelling as 1 guy and 2 girls and we never once felt in danger, even in Bogota. I felt more nervous in Brazi that I ever did im Colombia. The guns and drugs are a thing of the past. Go there now before it is spoiled by tourism in 10 years. David |
| 2nd April 2009 anonymous | - From: Fun Is The New Drug Hi guys. I'm in Brasil at the moment and planning on going to Colombia with some friends. Some of hem are afraid of going but they insist it is suicidal to set foot in Colombia. Do you recommend the country and how is the safety situation there, Thanks for the info. John |
| 5th March 2009 Paulo | A long and good journey - From: Feasting Like Piranhas, Sleeping Like Sloths Hi Tracey and Dave, your journey is amazing. I hope one day to do something like this. It was a pleasure know you in Bonito. You are a very cool couple. See you in the way.... Kisses, Paulo and Betania. |
| 2nd March 2009 Penny Rymer | Piranhas! - From: Feasting Like Piranhas, Sleeping Like Sloths What an informative blog! The snorkelling in Bonito must have been out of this world, and Tracey you are either brave or mad to have gone swimming with the piranhas and caimen! It really sounds as if you have had the most amazing experiences in Brasil. I know I say it in practically every comment from me, but, Wow! Thanks once again for letting us share it all with you. Lots of love, Penny |
| 11th February 2009 Penny Rymer | Fabulous photos - From: Boredom Crossings In The Land Of Meat And Mountains Once again fabulous descriptions of where you visited! The glacier El Perito Moreno sounds breathtaking, I loved the photo with the boat so we could see the scale. Also loved the photos of the penguins on Martillo Island. What a privilege to be able to get so close. What a wonderful vantage point to see the sealions. It would have driven me mad with all your criss-crossing of borders - I look forward to looking at both of your passports when you get home. Hope you manage to save some space in yours until the very end of your trip Dave! Have a great time in Uruguay. Much love Penny |
| 27th January 2009 Penny Rymer | Thanks for letting us into NASA's secret! - From: Sandyclaus Is Coming To Town Wow Valley of the Moon sounds wonderful, and your trip and interview with Alain must have been fascinating (hope you get your article published Tracey). Your Domo-esque hotel sounds intriguing - I have never slept inside a golf ball! You must have felt sick to lose your camera again, but well done you for taking out the chip, all your photos have been great. What wonderful memories of a very different Christmas and New Year. Lots of love, Penny |
| 22nd December 2008 Penny Rymer | Terrifying! - From: Silver Slavery, Salty Scenery and Sinful Salchipapas! Hi guys, wow another great blog, but rather you than me travelling down the Death Road! You are either very brave or mad! Being surrounded by all that brilliant white salt must have been very surreal, and I loved the photos taken there! As usual, some wonderful descriptions and very interesting historical facts. Lots of love to you both, and have a wonderful Christmas wherever you happen to be. |
| 12th December 2008 Penny Rymer | Fabulous descriptions - From: So Much More Than Machu Picchu Once again Tracey & Dave your descriptions are brilliant. The Inca Trail sounds absolutely amazing , something you will never forget. Thanks, too, for all the historical facts - very interesting. Something you will be able to use when you start teaching Tracey! Damn those mozzies, I hope the itching has now stopped! Lots of love, Penny |
| 6th December 2008 Penny Rymer | Catch the Thief! - From: The National Symbol is a Fake You poor things! How dreadful to lose your camera with what I am sure would have been superb photos. But your descriptions are, as usual, wonderful. And I love your drawings. Fascinating to read where the actual Equator really is! At least you will save other travellers the expense of going into the fake area. Your climb using the crampons etc. sounds exhausting, and terribly debilitating, but I am sure the stunning views made it all worthwhile. Looking forward to the next blog! With my love, Penny |
| 12th September 2008 Mel O | Yay Chiang Mai - From: Everyone Deserves A Second Chance Hi guys - glad you made it to Chiang Mai - spent a week there at the start of last year and loved it (have never been to Bangkok by the way) and even had cooking classes at the same cooking school lol (good ay!)... |
| 9th August 2008 Penny Rymer | Second Chance - From: Everyone Deserves A Second Chance I am so pleased you got to have five days rest & relaxation - you deserve it. We now expect to be invited to an authentic Thai cooked meal on your return! What a relief for you both that you enjoyed Bangkok the second time around. Big disappointment though about Tibet and Nepal. Have a great time in India. Lots of love, Penny |
| 4th August 2008 Penny Rymer | Bruises, Bombs & Buckets of Booze - From: Bruises, Bombs and Buckets of Booze Another fabulous and informative blog. I certainly knew nothing about the secret bombing of Laos or of the Cave City - fascinating! Ouch Dave your back looks sore and Tracey your photos of lao lao say everything - who needs words!? Lots of love to you both |
| 1st August 2008 Dorabela e Paulo | Fabulous - From: Close Enough To Smell A Silverback Fart Hi Tracey and David. We just loved your blog. Now we are in Luang Prabang and we have just had a "snip" of it. When we arrive in Portugal, we shell look at it more carefully and send you your photografs. Sorry about the mistakes, writing is a litlle bit worst. Your Portuguese friends |
| 29th June 2008 Penny Rymer | What horror - From: What Causes Amoebic Dysentery Anyway? Tracey & Dave, thank you for reminding us of the horrors of the Pol Pot regime. We have all read articles/watched news reports in the past but your blog, and its vivid descriptions and photos, bring it home as to what an evil regime it was. It was really harrowing to read, and I should think more so for you to visit. I do hope you are feeling much better Dave, you must have felt rotten. Take care of yourselves. Much love, Penny |
| 26th June 2008 Danimal | The Tigers were drugged!! - From: Trying Land Not sure if you can see but there is photographic evidence those tigers are drugged...the tiger Dave is standing next to has the end of a hashish pipe sticking out from under his pawpit (like an arm pit but tigers dont have arms do they smarty pants!)..not to mention that tiger clearly has a coke habit...just check out the size of those nostrils (worse than Tara PT)...also I reckon I can almost see a couple panda's and a leopard heating up the knives on a bunsen burner in the background. You be the judge |
| 26th June 2008 Danimal | Monks on a train/snakes on a plane - From: Trying Land excellent piece chaps...the last picture and caption (monks/snakes) has had me laughing for the past 5 minutes.... |
| 25th June 2008 anonymous | - From: Trying Land Your comments on the Bridge over the River Kwai and Hellfire Pass were so vivid. We have all heard stories of the horrors the POW's went through but it certainly makes it more real when you read your descriptions. Your points on the tigers are fascinating, and very thought provoking. I am sorry your trip to Bangkok and Thailand in general was not such a happy experience. Belated birthday wishes Dave. Lots of love to you both |
| 29th May 2008 Penny Rymer | I love Ritchie! - From: Slowly, Slowly Catch a Monkey Once again another brilliantly descriptive blog! What a character Ritchie is! You are so brave to wander off the beaten track and usual tourist places, but it is so obviously worthwhile, as you are discovering the `real' people in these amazing places. Thank you for sharing it with us. Till the next one ...... lots of love |
| 27th May 2008 Ash Temple | WOW! - From: "'Let's hunt for dragons" I said to Pooh... Oh my god, how jealous am I of your travels?!?!?!?! So many beautiful places and amazing memories. Stunning, missing you in England, but I bet youre not missing it... Ash |
| 5th May 2008 Penny Rymer | Dragon hunting - From: "'Let's hunt for dragons" I said to Pooh... Well you certainly found your dragons! And buffalo! Scary stuff. Once again a fabulous blog. Thank you for the tip about clicking on the photos to make them bigger, when your eyesight is like mine it is great to see so much more detail! Dave you look good in a skirt! The time you are taking with your blogs and photos is brilliant, thank you for enabling us to be part of your amazing journey. Lots of love to you both. |

| 9th February 2008 Louise Pepper | hello my lovelies! - From: Swimming With Whale Sharks For some reason Trace I was looking at your facebook page and there was the address for your blog, so I just spent a good half hour catching up! Sounds like you're having an incredible time (injuries aside Spurrier) and I'm extremely jealous. Especially as it's about 7 degrees here - though at least it's sunny. YOu're missing NOTHING but trauma at Gcrap, so I won't bore you with it - suffice it to say you left at the best possible time. Enjoy enjoy enjoy, read you soon xx |
| 9th February 2008 Penny Rymer | Swimming with Whale Sharks - From: Swimming With Whale Sharks Just read your last three blogs! Absolutely brilliant and wonderful photos! Loved the fact that you were shone such kindness by total strangers. As usual your descriptions help us to feel part of your experience. The diving must have been out of this world - quite humbling too I should think swimming beside a Whale Shark! Poor you Tracey being stung by the jelly fish - agony - and I hope the stings cleared up quickly. Lots of love to you both and I look forward to the next blog. If I don't contact you again beforehand, have a wonderful time in Kenya with all the family. Penny |

| 26th November 2007 Penny Rymer | Wow - again! - From: Close Enough To Smell A Silverback Fart What a wonderful, incredible experience.

| 13th November 2007 Neil Edson | Sounds Amazing - From: If you are pregnant, have a weak bladder or suffer with heart or back problems, do not board this ride Hey David and Tracey. It sounds like you are having the most wonderful experience. Extremely jealous especially when reading about your journeys sat in a dreary office in London. I think I would have been quite scared with the crazy women grabbing you. Anyway just wanted to say hello and let you know that I received a lovely letter from David's mum thanking me for the video. It was very kind and hopefully if she reads these comments she will see the thank you. I wish you all the luck on your up and coming journeys and I look forward to reading the next chapter. Neil |
| 30th October 2007 David Williams | Lovely insight... - From: If you are pregnant, have a weak bladder or suffer with heart or back problems, do not board this ride Keep it coming, guys. It makes great reading! |

| 30th October 2007 Steve Bulman | Yo Ho Ho.... - From: The Most Amazing Things You've Never Heard Of Wellllll.....the Couchie's have landed.....that just sounds incredible....looking forward to hearing more. I have only got married, had three kids and contracted Dengue Fever, writing this on my death bed, then getting better and living a full and happy life.....but your adventures put this to shame, so I will not go into detail (Katie, Zac and Killian...the kid's names) Kisses Bulman |
| 29th October 2007 David Williams | Nice work - From: The Most Amazing Things You've Never Heard Of Thoroughly entertaining and informative - just like your wedding! (But minus the bouncy castle, I'm guessing). Take care and good luck naming all the insects you encounter on your journey! Love Dave |
| 29th October 2007 Si | Huzzah! - From: The Most Amazing Things You've Never Heard Of Bob Geldof LIED. Great to finally hear from you, folks - particularly in a blast of such marvellously descriptive enthusiasm. I predict that after 18 months of seeing amazing things your blog entries will read: "Today: Saw some stuff. Ate something weird. Amusing story regarding poo." Don't let it happen! Keep up the good work! -si xxx |
