Special I knew Melbourne would be a special place on your trip but did not realise how special. Out of all of your blog entries i think this is certainly the best. You are a very lucky man. I hope that the memories of being the first of our immediate family to visit cousins most of us never really knew excisted will stay with you for ever abd that please G-d you will see them there and we will see them here in the near future.
Enjoy the leg of your journey with yet more family and we will speak soon. Take care

Chiang Mai - last days Hi Hon
I knew it wouldn't be too long before you had company!
This is all interesting reading, thanks for sharing. You are welcome to the humidity - not nice.!! I would have liked to browse around the markets out there, not neccessarily to buy but to have a look at what's for sale. I expect this can also offer a bit of culture shock, but then again that's what you are there to experience. Enjoy it all Nathan and take care. xxx

Congratulations Hi Nathan, first time I've written to you - bet you're not sure who I am, but Mum and Dad will. I think what you're doing is terrific, though I also think it would be good to be able to join others so that you're not travelling completely alone. I wish you safe journeys and look forward to following your progress. Good luck and stay safe. Maurice.
Aww Nathan that sounds totally awesome, im glad you got there ok and are alive. Hos is the situation out there? is it like loads of guns and stuff like they made out on tv?? Trust you to be over budjet already, im not suprised :P Im so jealous that you off round the world and im stuck in leeds. It has been nice and sunny though so i cant really complain too much. Have handed out loads of cv's too so fingers crossed i might have a job and then might be able to afford to come join you over the summer, anything can happen! Anyway, take care of yourself, and have fun.
Love u and miss u loads xxxxx
.....seeking the sun... Hi Nathan
Wow - this all sounds very exciting to me. I look forward to hearing about what you are getting up to and how you are coping with it. (Keep it clean, your Mother and Father will be watching!!)
Knowing you it won't be too long before you meet up with like minded folk and have company along the way...betcha do!
Good luck, take care of yourself and enjoy all of the interesting challenges that will no doubt come your way. xxx
Bon voyage! Hope you arrived safely and the sun is not ruining that lovely hair. Have a great time - eating junk food, not washing, not working, going to bed late, getting up late - it will be perfect practise for when you become a student!!!

Me jealous, never!!! (just a bit) Hi Nathan. I'm jealous already. I will keep following your blogs and use your knowledge gained for my trip next year. Enjoy. Natalie xx
Your first entry You've done what you always wanted to do and we are proud as punch that you managed to sort it. Still can't believe that you have after so much talk. Enjoy every minute of every day you are away. Opportunities to do this kind of trip really only come once in a life time. We will miss you to, but hope upon hope that you come back a better and more self sufficient than when you left. G-d Bless and take care.
Love and Best wishes
