My friend you are very blessed
Brennan your keeping me spiritually alive with these stories of life love and travels.I feel like the kid in the never Ending Story that locks himself in the closet to read the next chapter and I am so living thru you. Your writing is such a gift as is your humor which I understand so well.I admire your fierce determination to reach you destinations through hell and high water and read between the lines when language is just a barrier.When you get settled somewhere I would love to meet you there and catch up on your tales of life.I'm so very proud of you.

What an inspiration you are!!!
Brennan, you are such an inspiration!! Did you say you were going to write a book at the end of your travels? Will there be an end to your travles? I have to say I would love to see your face again but wouldn't blame you if you made one of these beautiful places, HOME (I would just have to come for a visit :-)). Well, I wish you nothing but the safest and best of luck on your continuation of the dream you are living. Peace my brother, Paul

hello brennan i am happy to see that your trip is giong well . it seem to be warmer in the place you are now.We live in my new flat with the girls and the spring is also comming here.It was nice to meet you and youare welcome if you pass by.love claire

what an experience!
Caro Bernardo, back from a short holiday on the snow north of Italy (Brunico) and one week in Germany I had to "bitterly" smile to your experience you had to soffer in Calabria whith the ancient albanian people of this wonderfull country.I fell sorry for you but negative experince have to be taken into consideration and situation like you had, might happen in every part of the world.Therefor keep high you travel-rage and stand eventual "insult" to your goodwill of globetrotter, Saluti and ciao Maurizio

Albanese
Shame I was right about the cold, but it just goes to show that statistics can lie. By the way, albanese means Albanian, so you'd have had a hard time getting your tongue round that version of Italian. Did your host or her nephew explain this? These were small communities of Albanians that arrived in Italy in the 15th century and stayed in some parts of Calabria and Sicily. Have fun.

SEI FORTE BERNARDO!
CARISSIMO BERNARDO! really magnificient your blog.We commented your news from Naples. A real scoop.We think your blog's readers would enjoe very much the experience you are having in Italy.Tommorow we will be in Germany and nexst week on the mountains near Bolzano with a bunch of friends. Ciao and keep sending your news ciao maurizio.

Enjoyed
Brennan, I really enjoyed your pictures and commentary. Keep it up.

Yay! Finally a picture of the famous Vespa. I was wanting to see this darling little machine that has been taking repeated thrashings. :P

Well done !
What happened next? I like your writing. If you remain in Vendée your love for old stone might become a heavy burden. There is just too much of it. I found your knickers and one sock. all dried up and wrinkled in the washing machine. If you leave more of your clothing with your hosts, you may have to ride your bike in Adam's suit. Hope you are fine. Jonnie

Mah!
Questa pagina di diario è scritta in maniera molto giornalistica e poco veritiera. Brennan dice che alla cena della vigilia di Natale tutti i cibi erano a base di maionese. In realtà c'era solo l'insalata russa (che non conosci perché sei statunitense; forse preferisci il McNugget del McDonald's) che la signora che ti ospitava ha impiegato sei ore a preparare, perché ha tagliato tutte le verdure a mano. Quindi, per lo meno, un po' di rispetto. Altro che chiudere gli occhi e buttare giu... Inoltre ti ho visto mangiare, perché ero seduto alla tua destra e mi pare che tu abbia mangiato a quattro palmenti, facendo spesso il bis e il tris... Poi è divertente ma falso che ogni volta che il ragazzo rumeno segnava un punto alla Play station ogni membro della famiglia andava a battergli la mano sulla spalla e a complimentarsi con lui. Inoltre il ragazzo non ha nulla di punk, come si può anche constatare dal video che hai pubblicato. Gabriele (Gabriele e non Gabrielle) non ha passato tutto il giorno di Natale a letto a fumare. Se poi i tuoi abiti puzzavano un po' di fumo, che dire: ringrazia che ti abbiamo prestato i nostri e che abbiamo asciugati i tuoi, altrimenti saresti andato in giro bagnato come un pulcino. Insomma, dal quadro che hai tracciato della tua permanenza da noi risulta un panorama da divertente paese del terzo mondo... Infine credo che non sia legale pubblicare fotografie di minori senza autorizzazione. Buon viaggio e torna a trovarci quando vuoi. Ciao. Sergio
