| 27th October 2009 prasantha | Wow - From: Jungle Fever You look absolutely gorgeous, my love! I would kill for a boody like yours! I can't believe all the extraordinary and exciting things you are up to! It sounds like you are having the time of your life.I look forward to reading your hilarious blogs when I am feeling burdened by piles of books and research - you cheer me up, although not so much when I hear about your accidents! I hope you are feeling much better now. And I am so glad Italo didn't turn out to be a scary serial killer! You two look great together by the way... Enjoy Costa Rica, Chica! And in the meantime, try to avoid worms and impossible MJ dance moves... :) Love Prasantha x |
| 25th October 2009 malolos2000 | - From: Famous in the Philippines! This is a nice blog about the Philippines and I'm glad that you liked your stay there. In the Philippines, just like in any other places, there are good eggs and bad eggs. You just have to be "street smart" in order not to get ripped off. Anyway, there's still a lot of places you can see and go in the Philippines. So go back and enjoy!! |
| 25th October 2009 ceri john | x - From: Jungle Fever Laura, you are amazing just lmao reading your blog u r soooo funny xxxx |
| 24th October 2009 Juliane Schmid | - From: Jungle Fever you are having quite an adventure! hope you are feeling better now! are you staying with the hot brazilian or are you two breaking up? lots of love from cold europe, jules |
| 20th October 2009 Emma | Hi - From: Colombia - Paradise Lost Wow, it looks like you are having such an adventure!! What can I say without sounding horribly jealous ;-) Your guy looks as gorgeous as the stunning scenery. Are you like pinching yourself a lot? Enjoy it, stay safe and keep writing these blogs - they are hilarious! Em x |
| 7th October 2009 Adrienne | Colombia Guidebook - From: Colombia - Paradise Lost Do you have a guidebook or two as recommended reading before we travel to Colombia the middle of November? I will also keep reading the blogs ! Thanks for your help |
| 7th October 2009 Juliane Schmid | - From: Colombia - Paradise Lost so tell me, how is it going with the hot brazilian? |
| 4th October 2009 Robert Platt | similar to my experience - From: Venezuela Your experience is actually quite similar to mine in venezuela.. shit! The country absolutely sucks.. aside from the amazing natural beauty once you actually get out of the large cities. The people are completely miserable and the cops are probably the most dodgy I have ever encountered. My mate and I were also stopped by police on our first night in Caracas on the way to the bar. They, too, tried to make us admit we were taking drugs. And another time when we were taking a coach (which are always over-air conditioned) we got stopped at a military checkpoint and men with giant guns came to assess everyone on the bus - a bit freaky. There is violence everywhere and people always trying to con you. Cops for some reason are intent on going after young white woman who are coupled with native man. So be careful!!! On the plus side, I recommend you go to Mérida (close to Columbian border in the Andes mountains), and take the cable car to the peak of Bolivar! I think there is a face carved in the top of the mountain or something, which is well above the clouds with snow on top! |
| 26th September 2009 Ben Warren | In between Travel - From: Venezuela Couple of hours sitting on the dock of a boat, all night on the floor of an airport, 8 hours of various cramped uncomfortable awkward transport. Let me know when your ready to sail the Great Barrier Reef! Western tropical culture is sometimes worth the expense :) Stay safe and keep on enjoying the good bits! x |
| 25th September 2009 barnaby davies | There is a ferry! - From: Venezuela I visited a friend of mine in Trinidad last year who sailed over from the UK. I came from Tobago by boat, straining desperately to see Venezuela only seven miles away. Everybody was sick on the boat, and I didn't see even a glimpse of Venezuela. And now I find there's a ferry! Poo! I'll do it next time.. |

| 22nd September 2009 Kerry | Jealous Much?!!!! - From: Venezuela Well as always Ms Blackhole you have ruined my day!! Here I was, perfectly content in my shit job, looking outside at the shit rain in Manchester, thinking about what exciting meal i can cook up with a can of mushy peas, a tomato and some stale bread! And then i recieve this email, you may complain about the shoddy journey but in the grand scheme of things it all looks pretty fabulous to me and what an adventure too (not to mention you get to shack up with the hot brazillian!) !!! Glad you are enjoying it, just keep yourself safe missy and enjoy the ride!! ;) xxxxx |

| 10th September 2009 anonymous | - From: The Travels continue so the blog continues... Hi Laura Wow, you're back out there on the road again already, we're so jealous!! ;-) You must have a foolproof way of making a few bucks, or you just might be very clever and worth a fortune. Me, I'll be slogging it out for some time before I can think about travelling again. Who is this guy, how did you meet him? Anyway, have a great time and have fun! PS Looked out for you on the telly but never saw it. :-( Love Emma |

Ohhh, i am very happy you're back on the road ... not sure about the guy though, can we have a picture? anyway, worst case you end up marrying him in 4 weeks time and stay all your life in Latin America ... that would be really bad, wouldn't it? take care and be safe ... |

| 24th November 2008 maria | - From: Famous in the Philippines! Thank you for posting your blog.......so nice to hear that you had such great time in Panglao island as we are going to visit the island January 09. I am hoping people who will read your blog will not be so ignorant anymore and just think of Philippines as being a bad place to visit. I always love going home to the Philippines....brings back so many fond memories when I was just a little girl living in one of the islands (Catanduanes). Thank you so much once again. |
