bravo
Bravo Julian ! Il ne te reste plus qu'à écrire toutes tes aventures en détails car ça m'intrigue vraiment. Si ta route devait une fois croiser celle de Lausanne sache qu'un lit ainsi que la pension complète te sera offerte avec grand plaisir en échange du récit de ton voyage. ;-) bon vent ! Carole

Congratulations!
Welcome home! I have enjoyed following you on your journey. I know how difficult it is to keep a blog up under such primitive conditions, but hope your first thoughts were on the experience and not on recording them for us.

Merv
Lucky you, I've always wanted to explore this part of the world. Did you know that Merv used to be known as Margiana, and was the furthest outpost of the Pythian empire? When they defeated Crassus's Roman Legions at the battle of Carrhae in 53BC, they took 10,000 roman soldiers captive. Many of them were sent to Margiana, where they built the walls of the city.

I don't believe it
Julian! You are travelling half-way across the world, by public transport mostly, and your trousers are still neatly pressed! How do you do it? Why do you do it? I can't work out if I'm im-pressed at your dedication to the iron or de-pressed at my lack of dedication. x

Oil field photos
Julian, I am enjoying reading your entries. However I am surprised you did not understand why the authorities wanted to delete your photos, especially since you have spent so much time in China. It obviously has nothing to do with reverse engineering. Someone in the governement must have read the the Loney Planet description and became very upset. In an effort to clean up their image and be able to effectively deny the "nightmare vison" of oil extraction charge there can be no photographic evidence.

Your mail has inspired me....
to catch up on your blog - keeping this maintained including posting rather remarkable photos is one of the most impressive things about your journey. Getting hold of a functioning computer on internet can't have been easy in the 'Stans. Your mum told me that you'd reached the Black Sea. I spent a shockingly lazy school trip week on Golden Sands in Bulgaria (near Varga, one of your ports of call?) It won't be very much on your mind now but I've got some excellent (and mercifully short) material on Ecuador for your next exotic escapade.... Please don't "strip my link" (dire warning on the top of this box) Hurry up and get back, I've been been invited to dinner when you do... Chris

Onwards, our modern-day mechanically-borne Marco Polo!
Julian, Have enjoyed your travel tales so far. Amazing that once you get off the well-travelled pathways, the world quickly reverts to being a place full of potholes and flat tires -- and reassuring. A great book to read sometime is Eastern Approaches by Fitzroy Maclean, a traveller in Central Asia and an amazing person in the 1930's and 40's. Onwards! Enjoy the moments under the sun and the stars ... as you will be under florescent lighting for long enough in the years to come! DGB
