| 15th October 2007 sprucemoose | A true Goat Joel, a true Goat. - From: On the road again! :) I see you included my favourite NZ photo!

| 20th March 2007 sprucemoose | Smart Aleck Comment - From: Last port of call... The photos are all well and good, but what was the "story"? |
| 20th March 2007 Penny | - From: Last port of call... Thanks Joel, I will miss the blogs -especially your entertaining writing. I fear, such are the paradoxes of life, that I will be less in contact with your life now you are a suburb or two away that I was when you were on the other side of the world! Hopefully we'll catch up again soon. |
| 19th March 2007 Hutcho | Nice writing - From: Last port of call... Joel, I enjoyed your writing in this blog. It contains a rare and haunting beauty, you transcend the mere confines of the page and transport the reader to wherever it is that you have been. The photos are ok as well :P |
| 19th March 2007 Hemmingway | What, no text!! Shame! - From: Last port of call... Joel, here I was gearing up for more exciting adventures of Explorer Joel and you have just a few words!! Come on, man and tell us about Greece to go with the great photos! |

| 11th March 2007 Mohammed | You promised to come back! - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" When you walked past my carpet shop (the BEST carpets in all of Istanbul!!), I asked you to come in, and you told me "Maybe later". So you promised you'd come back!! Why didn't you?!! I waited for hours, I made apple tea for you, I turned other customers away, I laid the carpets out nicely... Never trust a carpet-buyer. =( |
| 4th March 2007 Barbara | Turkish Memories! - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" Hey Joel. I'm sitting in an internet cafe in Rabat in Morocco and just read your Turkey blog! It has made me nostalgic thinking of the great time we all had together! I am still working on my Turkey blog and wasn't going to read yours until I had published mine but couldn't wait any longer!! Hope mine will be half as good! See you in Aussie in about three weeks time! |
| 25th February 2007 Everette | Great Blog - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" I have enjoyed reading your blog entries. I am traveling to Turkey this week and look forward to a great adventure. Everette Studdard www.travelblog.org/bloggers/everette |
| 23rd February 2007 Susie | really nice - From: Salamanders in Slovenia Hey, it look like you had a lot of fun. I heard that also the valley of river So a is very nice and it offers a lot of various adrenaline activities - from bungee jumping to canoing and stuff. Well maybe next time... But I agree with you on Bled. Defenitely a romantic alpine place to visit. And partying in Ljubljana :) no comment.... Very satisfying country. :) |
| 20th February 2007 anonymous | - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" Hi Joel! When will you arrive back to Vienna?I would love to see you again before you go back!Send me an emal!Have a nice time! Katika |
| 17th February 2007 sashi | why is the world so big.. - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" and my cash flow so small? turkey looks beautiful, im utterly jealous.. as always |
| 15th February 2007 Botsalano | Turkey certainly is special! - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" What a great place Turkey is - I would go back there tomorrow!! |
| 15th February 2007 joe | impressed - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" very impressed by the dedication your father shows in getting that perfect shot. is he a professional photographer? where can i find examples of his published work? (ps. interesting blog too, you write well.) |
| 14th February 2007 Joel | Re: turkish bread? - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" It was great mate. We had it with every meal and dipped and scooped our way through a multitude of different dishes. There was one place that served a special puffed up version aswell which was even better than the usual stuff! :P |
| 14th February 2007 baz | turkish bread - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" was turkish bread in turkey hell good? or was it bit of a let down? |
| 11th February 2007 sprucemoose | Nothing can beat that intense Hammam hey! - From: "Don't believe him, he lies like a carpet!!!" Turkey looks truly incredible hey, what an extensive and interesting history. The Temple of Artemis sucks though, one column! Stupid erosion. |
| 3rd February 2007 Joel | I believe my friend alcohol answers most of your questions... - From: Salamanders in Slovenia 1) I was having so much fun handing out coats with catch phrases like "Have a good night!" and "See you next time!" 2) I think she thought I might take over her job and she would be unemployed... 3) I'm having so much fun! I have found my calling in life! :P Hope those are satisfying enough answers for you mate. Otherwise too bad... |
| 2nd February 2007 anonymous | Horse Lovers' Unite!! - From: Salamanders in Slovenia Joel, your range of food tasting has expanded yet again! Interested in the Salamanders. Hope you can give me some more details about them when I catch up with you soon! Botsalano |
| 2nd February 2007 Hutcho | More photo comments - From: Salamanders in Slovenia More bizarre than the useless pic of the swan is that other photo of the cloak room girl. Numerous intriguing questions spring to mind 1) Why did you stay when the others left, I hope it wasn't for her. 2) She looks downright hostile, I got a little scared looking at her 3) Why the big stupid grin on your face. Will we ever get a straight answer, I doubt it very much. |
| 2nd February 2007 anonymous | travel buddy! - From: Salamanders in Slovenia I miss traveling with you! Thinking of couch surfing somewhere near Iowa....not as exciting, but should tide me over! |

But it suits you... better than that thing in your eyebrow..(-: haha! too bad we did'nt had a chance to meet up in Amsterdam, but according to what I just read you had a great time.
