14th December 2008 Need time	- From: A toast to new adventures and new friends NOw, because the Dalai Lama has denounced the trade, the CHinese authorities are not. They have stoped enforcing it, because if they did enforce, they would be siding with the DL. And this is only a minute part of the Tibet and CHinese government issue... ----------------------------------------------- I don't think Chinese Gov supports the animal trade. I do not where you get the incorrect information. Actually Chinese Gov crackdown the illegal animal trade(such as antelopes) severely. China is very complicated and still a poor country and only a small amount Chinese can enter into college. The culture is different from western. I think it's normal there are some bad/abnormal sth. Just need time to change those, step by step.
14th December 2008 You are a kind person.	- From: Lhasa From your blog, I think you love Tibet and Tibetans. So do I (I am a Han Chinese). But in history(from Yuan Dynasty), Tibet is part of China. Please check the history of China. Noon of official maps indicate Tibet is/was a independent country? None of countries recognize Tibet as a independent country. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Qing_Dynasty_1820.png http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:ROC_Administrative_and_Claims.png http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:China_administrative.gif http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qing_Dynasty http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_China http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People's_Republic_of_China For Dalai Lama, I can't believe him. He said he just wants autonomy. But there is no difference between his "autonomy" and independence.
14th January 2008 H	Thanks - From: Cambodia Connections Thanks for sharing these BEAUTIFUL pics of Cambodia with us. I haven't been there in years and it's nice to see these pics. :-)

23rd August 2007 Timothy P. Frake	Glad to see the beauty of Vietnam - From: Letter to Vietnam Kristen, Thanks for the memories. I was in Vietnam in '69 for a year. Between battles, I enjoyed to beauty of both the people and the countryside. I spent most of my time northwest of Saigon with about two months in Cam Ranh Bay at the hospital on the beach. Enjoy your travels, wish I had been able to do that when I was younger.

10th November 2006 Matt Yard	Stupid Tourists - From: A beauty unknown to me, until now... Hey Kristen, Great blog entry, sounds like you're having a great time. I totally sympathize with your frustrations over insensitive tourists, some of your comments really rang true with me. It's really ignorant for people to think that just because they are on holiday that they don't have to worry about how their actions affect others, especially when they have different culutral norms to think about. I definetly feel ashamed of fellow travellers sometimes too. Anyways, just wanted to comment about that, stay well, and if you're in Seoul let me know and we'll have a drink. Peace, Matty
