| 8th September 2009 Joanne Bittick | - From: Living Abroad Yet Again... Hi Danielle- It's good to hear from you and know you're settling in fine. After Africa and Qatar, Eqypt seems like a mild experience for you! The thought of university life is more normal to me. Normal is relative, right? You are fortunate to have the opportunities and fortitude to take life by the horns and experience our world. It's not for everyone but certainly works for you. Enjoy your new world and good luck with your studies. Be safe and keep us posted on life in your part of the world! Love, Joanne |
| 8th September 2009 Paula LaRose | - From: Living Abroad Yet Again... So good to hear that you made it safely and are having a great time. We were at Camp with the camping crew over labor Day. Always a good time, but missed you. Had to drag David home before he started another Air Band up. We are planning another Kayaking outing with your parents later this month. Don't know where the summer has gone. Love the crisp air but am dredding the snow. Keep the blogs coming. I always feel like I've been on vacation after reading them. love Paula |

| 7th September 2009 Mary Ellen C. Eley | Still the same Cairo - From: Living Abroad Yet Again... Nice descriptions! Felt I was back in Cairo, after 20 years. I am sure that plenty is different and improved, but so much sounds the same...the crowds, dust, people (generally welcoming!) the sights and foods, smell and attitudes. Enjoy your amazing adventure, and keep us up to date. And why didn't you visit us at the lodge while you were in VT?!!! Take care! My husband wants us to visit as we have friend who live there, including you. Never know, we may just call you one day. |

| 6th February 2009 Angie | yay! - From: Update on my life in Qatar Glad to hear from you! I'd been wondering how you were doing. Adam's friends moms actually work for Texas A&M University in Qatar so a couple of our friends were there over Christmas. And I think one of my high school friends in the air force was stationed there for awhile. I heard from one of my friends that there's not a whole lot to do there. Is that true?? I know you're busy so it might not feel that way. Anyway, thanks for the update! How's your arabic coming?? XOXO Angie |

| 12th August 2008 Lauren Paul | Good luck Ms. Adventure - From: Here I go again on my own... D- That is amazing story. I think that being sick in the hospital like that is so undescribably scary. Good for you for being so brave. I think it is wonderful that you are going to teach English in the Middle East, also very brave. I am glad that you are going to be safe. Keep your blogs coming. I file them in a seperate email file and I like to hear about your exciting life! |

I love you....Aunt Cindy |
| 12th August 2008 Stacey | You - From: Words of wisdom/hope/am I doing the right thing???

I am very proud of who you are becoming and of what you are doing to help other people - what a big heart you have. Happy Trails! |

| 9th April 2008 Fernando | To all my friends - From: Welcome to Buduburam Refugee Camp God bless all of you. You’re busy and happy with doing a great deal of work which greatest humans can do. |
| 2nd April 2008 Marius Goulei | I know both Sis Carol and Sis Shanna - From: Life in a refugee camp Hello Daniel, thank you for your site. I think it is a blessing for many other. I am brother Marius. It was just to say Hi Marius www.wwordministries.webs.com |
| 19th March 2008 gustavo vegas | amazing adventure. - From: Bienvenue a Cote d'Ivoire (IVORY COAST) espero que todo este bien por alla en tu viaje , estas un poco loca , pero bueno que lo pases muy bien , un abrazo de Chile. |
| 17th March 2008 Angie | Wow! - From: Bienvenue a Cote d'Ivoire (IVORY COAST) Looks like you're having such a wonderful time, even if it is a bit crazy! I'm really envious and wish I was still traveling. I think it's cool you guys went to the Ivory Coast, even though it was probably pretty dangerous. I can't wait to catch up and hear all your stories. :) |
| 17th March 2008 Valerie | Wow... - From: Bienvenue a Cote d'Ivoire (IVORY COAST) I think you are either incredibly nuts or incredibly brave...either way, I think you could write a documentary about your crazy adventures in Africa....you'd better come home armed with tons of pictures - I'm glad you are safe and I hope you enjoy the rest of your time there - I'd say don't do anything I wouldn't do, but I think you've already surpassed it!!! |
| 15th March 2008 Mary | You are... - From: Bienvenue a Cote d'Ivoire (IVORY COAST) AN AMAZING PERSON! |
| 14th March 2008 Christina | Too much - From: Bienvenue a Cote d'Ivoire (IVORY COAST) D, I wish I was there to kick your ass for some of the things you're doing! I called Deb F. because that "Humor Your Stress" woman is coming to the Flynn, and she told me to tell you hello and that she's praying for you (looks like she needs to be). I hope you actually come in May. Jessica said out of the blue the other day, "I miss Danielle." Guess I'm not enough excitement around here. We're all heading to Koto on April 2 for Val's b-day. Sorry you and the adult mad libs won't be there. See you soon, and stay safe, C |
| 26th February 2008 Sis shanna | Please write me - From: Life in a refugee camp Daniel I know this man Marius very well, I was supporting him on the camp for two years and I would like you to write me please. |
| 11th February 2008 Carol | Thank you - From: Life in a refugee camp Thank you for writing about this, Danielle. I am in daily contact with people in the camp, who are so desperate for help - and I have so little in personal funds. I would like to suggest that people who have a heart to help will find a wonderful man in Brother Marius Goulei whose website http://www.freewebs.com/wwordministries/ will detail his work and pictures. This man has UN approval and is legitimate as far as I can determine. Other people in the camp had verified this for me, even those who compete with him for funds. I suggest you contact him with any offer of help at all. Even a little is a help and Western Union is easy to use - the money is there in minutes. If you mention my name - he calls me "Sis Carol" - it will help him to identify you as well. There is so much need but this is one small effort. Please help! And Thank You again Danielle. |
| 11th February 2008 Calandra | - From: Bienvenue a Togo! I stole your blog idea. Thanks. Take care of yourself sister. Love ya |

| 12th September 2007 Meghan | Absolutely JEALOUS - From: Absolutely Lovin Egypt Danielle, I miss you to start with! I read these blogs and I am so envious. Thank you for continuing to post them - I love learning all the stuff that your learning (or portions of it anyways). I cant believe that you've been gropped...are you okay!!? haha - All the stuff that you wrote about women - Im just in awe the whole time Im reading. I guess if you've lived that way your whole life, you dont think anything different - but surely the OBGYN exams was a huge shocker! Oh - and the fact that you can kill for "revenge" WOW! I know some people here that would probably like to hear that one!! Im glad that your having a good time - the pictures are awesome. You look like your having so much fun! Im so jealous....lol - Nothing has changed here of course! What are those big tubes with smoke coming out of them? Look like bongs to me...but I assume its something else! They are very cool - how was the apple tabacco? The Pyramid pictures are amazing...I cant imagine seeing those in person! Did you get to go inside of them? Are you learning stuff about them as you go through them? You just freakin Rock!! Im so glad that your having a good time! We miss you - but know that your having a good time! Keep the blogs coming, I enjoy them so much!!! xoxoxo Megs |
| 5th September 2007 Nikki | - From: Trip to the pyramids Hey nomad! Was thinking about you the other day and decided to find that travel blog you told me about a while ago. I cringed when I saw the pictures. Not because of the dirt or anything, but because you beat me to egypt! How are the arabic classes going? Fluent yet? Have you made it to any other countries around there? Abby said you asked for my email: godchasern19@aol.com Know you're buisy, but i'd love to hear from you if you get a sec. |

I am very interested in the actual going inside of the pyramid. I can't believe the 1st people died from the fumes of the pyramid. I like the pic of you with the hooka...I liked seeing the background of the market. My email is now: lauren.fae.paul@gmail.com I am going to foward your blog to my Dad.

| 27th August 2007 Joanne | Glad to hear from you - From: Trip to the pyramids Hi Danielle-We were starting to worry about you! We're happy to know you're okay, doing well and enjoying the many sites of Egypt. You are certainly on the trip of a lifetime! It seems you are adjusting to the heat since you didn't mention showering once! What's this about cruising the Nile with Ben? Sounds like a date to me. And, what about smoking sheesha? Nasty! Take care and be safe. Steve and Joanne |

| 24th April 2005 anonymous | Vamos Chilenos - From: Chile v.s. Uruguay Futbol (soccer) Game Danielle, I remember the first time I heard that chant. It was 3 or 4 in the morning after a big game, and in the middle of the night in Concepcion I heard some noises outside. I looked outside and two guys were shoveling gravel into a wheelbarrow, taking it from a construction site. For 45 minutes it was two drunk guys singing "VAAAAAAAMOS, VAAAMOS CHILEEEEEEENOS, ESTA NOOOOOCHE, TENEMOS QUE GANAR" I wish I could have gone to a sweet game like you did! Sounds like a blast. - Austin |
