| 9th June 2008 martha | Ubahn! - From: Berlin or Bust! Your story about the U-bahn brought back memories of my time in Germany on an exchange at 16 years old.

There were many tears shed that day :) and now my german is nicht schlect!! looking forward to hearing all about your adventures in person!! |
| 8th June 2008 Paul | my mentor - From: Crazy tours on communism in Krakow First, I am very fortunate to be able to share your experiences in the world, so I thank you for that. Second, did you ever notice that if you misspell the word "mentor" it ends up looking liking "menotaur", and there are some parallels. But only if you look for them. Third, I love ya kiddo and hope you are having a great journey. Miss ya! Paul |

If there is one place I want to travel too, it would be there! I love the story about the waterfalls that form during the rainy weather, I'm sure that is a sight to see! Glad your having a great time! Ryan P.S. I made a mini snowman the other day! I'm sure its going to take a while for you to get used to this weather! AHHH! |
| 23rd November 2007 Mark Whitfield | Angkor Wat Sunrise : Mucho Coincidentay - From: Sunrise at Angkor Wat, Siem Reap Cambodia Great pictures of Angkor Wat Katy. I was amused as I was looking for my pictures of Angkor Wat and came across yours as we have the same surname. http://www.mawhitfield.com/holidays/cambodiaweb/index.html The Angkor Wat sunrise also sets the scene for the entrance to my website also : http://www.mawhitfield.com/ We went at a similar time of year to in late 2004. The build up was almost more atmospheric and exciting than the actual sunrise with all the people sitting on the relic on the inside of the entrance area waiting for the sunrise to happen. Keep snapping O :-) |
| 17th November 2007 Ryan | GOOD TIMES! - From: Happy times at Ha Long Bay and Hanoi, Vietnam... the sun shone down on us! Hey Katy! Glad to hear everything is going well! Looks like you're having a BLAST! WOW! By the way, I love the pics, they're absolutely hilarious! LOL! I guess you could call this Mr. Dressup, Vietnam Style! Ryan |
| 14th November 2007 Ryan | Vietnam sounds wicked! - From: Good morning Vietnam! Shopping in Hoi An and cycling around town... raining in Hue Hey Katy! Hope all is well! Too bad it's rainy where you are, but we're getting are fair share down here too! Actually, today wasn't so bad, one of the better days in a while! I'm just starting to recover from exam season, but it's coming up again, for which I am sorta in denial! Anyway, it sounds like you're having a BLAST, but that bike ride sounds like some kinda workout! WOOOOOOO! At least you got to see the beach afterwards! I'm sure that was rewarding! Can't wait to hear more stories! Take care! Stay safe! |
| 12th November 2007 Jennifer | sounds like fun - From: Good morning Vietnam! Shopping in Hoi An and cycling around town... raining in Hue Katy, it sounds like you are having a wonderful time, and all of the experiences sound great. It is rainy seson here too, so I understand how that can put a damper on things. My mom is visiting, and we have not done many tourist things because of the rain, and my lack of time. Rememberance day is funny in countries that don't remember. It can come and go without a moments thought if you are not careful. But my mom and I observed a moment of silence together, and I mentioned it in church today, and we prayed for world peace as a church. Glad you are enjoying the food! You will have to teach people when you get back what you learned in cooking class! |
| 8th November 2007 Ryan | Remembrance - From: Life and History in Phnom Penh-boat down the Mekong and arrival in Saigon/HCMC Hey Katy! So glad to hear from you again! I love reading your stories and insights from across the globe! I must say, the thing that struck me the most was the Killing Fields. I think it's definitely important to acknowledge the past, because it makes us understand the present. And especially since Nov 11th in coming up, I think it's absolutely critical we remember those who lost their lives in any type of war, battle, or invasion. I should also say that I'm a little jealous about the food over there. I actually went out to dinner with a few friends last night, to the "Mongolian Grill," which was absolutely amazing! But I'm sure, that by physically being in that region, you the get that authentic taste! Can't wait to hear from you again! Take care, and all the best! Ryan |
| 4th November 2007 Jenn | Elephants, Markets, The Kwai AND a Whole Lot o Buddha??? - From: Gap tour begins, outstanding temples at Angkor, boat trip on Tongle Sap Lake and signing with a Cambodian artist Wow! You have been busy! I have finally caught up on all the blogs. Don't forget to just "take a moment" like we did with Mona. |
| 30th October 2007 Ryan | ELEPHANTS! - From: Touring around Bangkok-Elephants, Bamboo rafts, cooking... good times Hey Katy, I'm loving your BLOG! It's awesome! Sooooo kooool with a K! Hope all is going well, it sounds like a trip of a lifetime! Wish I could be there! And hey, did I tell you? I just found out today that I got accepted to the Costa Rica trip! I can't wait to go on a plane! YAYYYY! Wishing you all the best, Ryan |

| 16th October 2007 emmers | keep looking - From: Some photos of my first 3 days in HK look for the signs that say bead stores...there's gotta be a few over there...I'm not sure I quite get the polka dotted pumpkin..looks more like swiss cheese of the orange variety or a sickly lady bug....but whatever you say. Any my final comment. I don't think anyone wants crabs. Just my thoughts. |

Gladys |
| 22nd September 2007 Gladys | - From: la vie sur La cote d'azur Hey Katy! Hearing about your travels brings back good memories of that train route. I never really took the time to stop much in each spot, I was always on the way to somewhere else. I know...the old saying about life happens while blah, blah, blah. Well, way to live it, girl! That hostel sounds beautiful as does the rest of the country. Enjoy! |

| 5th September 2007 joy | - From: I'm off to London to see the Queen Hi Katy, Naomi is also in England right now! She is studying in East Sussex, at Herstmonceux castle. We said our tearful goodbyes last night but we're already talking on skype! I love England and love to hear all about your adventures! I'd also love to join you on a pub crawl and go for fish and chips and mushy peas... but I'll just have to settle for a cuppa tea and some bikkies here instead! Have a great time! love, joy |

Marianna and Maria Adams |
| 19th March 2007 Gladys | - From: Good morning... a bit of Dookie History Yes, me loves the food bits, but I can't help but notice that you're wearing a t-shirt. Lucky girl - we got another dumping of snow last night that thankfully has melted but I'm not going out in a t-shirt. Live it up! |

| 2nd August 2006 anonymous | - From: Live at Spiceland I'm so happy to hear your Katy voice back. You had a while there where it was hard to recognize your tone on msn, but now its back to you! Katyyyy, the one I met, and love, and miss. I'm glad you love your life, you should. You've accomplished so much. Enjoy this. I'm still working on your gift. k |
| 31st July 2006 Gladys | One-man Association - From: De Big Fish, Knockabout Day and good times in St. Georges I love the concept of a one-man association. Thinking of starting one myself. Can't decide if it should be based on a Kabbalah meets Scientology religion or that Unicorn Breeding Centre I pitched to Dave Reiss. Anyway, regardless of the angle, there will be a collection box for sure. Am still enjoying the food content of your travelog. I totally respect your affiliation with people who own snack companies. That shows a strong sense of priorities. Have a great end of trip. I'm getting ready to shove off myself to Edmonton for three weeks. Jason's actor brother and his girlfriend are back crashing in my house upon their return from filming a CTV Travel Channel show called "Pleasure Zones." That's all I'm going to say for now, Katy. I'll just let you ponder that one for a bit. Once again, all of this unfortunately, is fact. I don't make any of this up. Bon retour! Gladys |
| 26th July 2006 Eryn | The adventures continue!!! - From: I only want to be a sheep -first day of VBS Hey Bella! Thanks for the emails and updates. Sounds awesome! A real life altering experience. I know you are and will have a great time and I look forward to hearing more stories and seeing your pictures. My music course is almost done and our final concert is tomorrow!! Take care and keep writing :) |
| 26th July 2006 joy | blessings katy ... for your heart for children... - From: and then there were 39-day two of VBS Hi Katy! Thanks so much for your wonderful and colorful travel stories! Children are amazing aren't they! They capture your heart and teach you to love... speaking of young ones, i recently saw 5 orca whales in the ocean between the tiny islands near Vancouver Island - looked like they were parents and babes! They were so free and so beautiful! I will keep you in my prayers as you work with these precious children! My own precious ones are away this summer - Naomi is in France and Talisa is touring across Canada! Blessings to you, always. joy |
| 26th July 2006 Gladys | Tropical sunsets - From: and then there were 39-day two of VBS Yeah...it's those little moments when you travel...the realization that you're experiencing something you might never again. Grab every moment, make it all count the way you always do. Gladys |
| 26th July 2006 Martha | I just want to be a sheep--baa, baa, baa,baa - From: and then there were 39-day two of VBS Sounds like you are having a great time! FYI- "I just want to be a sheep" was a hit song in the South African Orphanage last summer too! I hope the rest of VBC goes well and you enjoy your home stay. I'm heading back to Ontario today after a glorious month here in the Maritimes. I'm looking forward to catching up with you in August. Love, Martha |
| 26th July 2006 Jenn | Hello - From: I only want to be a sheep -first day of VBS Oh KT...would love to be there to see all of the views! Sounds like you are having a gret time... greetings from me to your pals! Take it easy in the sun and watch out for all the bugs~he he. Howz the smores? ps: got the museum job! yay! |
| 25th July 2006 Paul Langevin | My worldly friend... - From: I only want to be a sheep -first day of VBS KT, so enthralled to read your adventures and finally have time to add a comment. I am currently in St. Andrews and find myself vibrating between two realities: the serenity and sea-side scope of St. Andrews and the glimpses of Grenada you have provided. I send you my warmest thoughts from Canada's East Coast. Cheers! Paul. |
| 24th July 2006 Gladys | Hot fun, hot chicken - From: Grenville-Hot fun in the sun and Jeremiah! I don't know if you can see these comments, Katy, but I'll try anyway. I seriously think that I could eat chicken and chips for a couple of weeks straight but I know that it's tough when it's blazing hot every day. Jason used to drag me to McDonald's when we were in China. Imagine eating an Extra Value Meal in 40-degree heat. Disgusting. I love the descriptions of tropical fruit everywhere and the Pirates comparison. Have you found your Orlando Bloom, yet...or better still...Johnny Depp? Hot fun indeed! |
| 23rd July 2006 Katie | - From: Grenville-Hot fun in the sun and Jeremiah! Hey Katy! I miss you! But I love hearing all of your stories. How do you like the travelblog, it's great isn't it? Good luck and have fun, and try not to get too burned. xoxkt |

I just think its amazing to have the opportunity to work with such a diverse group of people, literally from all over the world! I recently told my mom (who is from Guyana), about the trip and she was very excited to hear about the awesome work you all are doing. Hope to hear about the latest adventure soon! Ryan |
| 18th July 2006 Martha | Praying for you :) - From: Bring on the rain and a reception with the Minister of Tourism Hey Katy, Katy, So glad to hear about your adventures. Please pass my love along to Verna, Joel, Rueben, etc etc. Is Farida (from Curacau there?) is RevKaren (from PCUSA) there? My prayers are with you my sister as you live in community :) I too am living in world wide community here at the Coady International Institute so we will have stories to share when we get home. May God continue to guide you and fill you with a joyful music!!! Love and blessings, Martha |

Sounds like the journey there was amazing and you've got an amazing group of people to hang out with for the next few weeks. Remember that your mission for this trip (in addition to saving the world) is to make me thoroughly jealous with your stories of action and adventure. And my mission is to ward off any chance of you getting homesick so here it is...Samuel took a poo in his bath last night. What is THAT????! |
