| 19th August 2008 vamsi | SAFE AND FRIENDLY SUDAN - From: SAFE AND FRIENDLY SUDAN nice blog and good information Goa India |
| 19th August 2008 anonymous | - From: shantytowns in Belgrade The people living in the slums may not be ethnic Serbs but are Serbian in the sense that they live in Serbia! In fact most of them were probably born in the country so that entitles them to every bit of consideration as the 'real' Serbs. Does these people's ethnicity take away from the fact they are living in destitution? Or is it ok for them to live like that because they are gypsys? |
| 17th August 2008 Zan | ferry crossing..... - From: SAFE AND FRIENDLY SUDAN Hi Gil....you are coming the opposite direction that Joe and Stormi will be going.....she has been advised to get a room on the ferry that will cross the lake as it sometimes takes three days...this from a driver for Dragoman.......will you be crossing the lake to get into Egypt? I am assuming so ...thought you would like to check it out. |
| 13th August 2008 Viajerong Pinoy | SUDAN ROCKS - From: LALIBELA, GONDER, AXUM AND THE SIMIEN MOUNTAINS Probably the friendliest country weve been to in Africa, quite safe, locals hardly hassle you not lots of tourists other than UN people and occasional backpackers, they sure will enjoy it.... |
| 12th August 2008 Zan | Into Sudan? - From: LALIBELA, GONDER, AXUM AND THE SIMIEN MOUNTAINS Hi Gil....joe and i are enjoying your blog and your photo's are AMAZING! He and our daughter will be leaving the states on Jan 1, heading to Cairo, then into Sudan and on to Ethiopia....I am anxiously awaiting your comments on Sudan as I worry about them already! |
| 17th July 2008 josworld | Simply Amazing ! - From: WHITEWATER RAFTING AT THE SOURCE OF THE NILE Hi Gil....love your amazing adventures around the world :>....Saan ka sa aten ? |
| 14th July 2008 cegrmr | Thanks for sharing - From: WHITEWATER RAFTING AT THE SOURCE OF THE NILE Hey Gil, What a wonderful trip. I hope your friend is feeling better now. The pictures were great. I totally want to visit. Oh yeah... how was the Chinese food in Africa? Seems interesting. Ryan |
| 11th July 2008 cegrmr | Thanks for your visit and pictures - From: MAGNIFICENT GORILLAS AND THE MEMORY OF GENOCIDE.. Gil, Your experience seems wonderful yet bothersome (fleas, etc.), but overall "magnificent". Your pictures say it all. I was hoping to hear more about the rebels who are tearing down the forest for Charcoal which is sold on the black market. The deforestation caused by rebels is driving the gorillas and their natural habitat back and unfortunately killing any beast or man standing in their way. Conservation efforts have been successful, but only on a minimal basis. I feel that the public needs justification to get involved and seeing your wonderous photos definitely gives just that and is headed in the right direction. Thank you again, Ryan M. Rodriguez |
| 1st July 2008 Ronan | Belgrade - From: shantytowns in Belgrade Belgrade is a dump of city, with the most unfriendly and rude people I have ever encountered. The hotels are shocking and the eateries are worse. Middle aged war veternans working in the hospitality industry doesnt work. Food is industrial and thats a compliment. Everybody is on the make and you need a wheel barrow to pay for anything. |
| 9th June 2008 Zan | GREAT PICTURES - From: BUNGY JUMPS, VIC FALLS AND HIPPOS Hi Gil! Joe and I are having a really good time following your blog. Your pictures are AMAZING and you need to do a book when you get back home....if you ever decide to stop traveling for a while!!! Joe is going to Africa with Dragoman, starting Jan 5 in Cairo....our daughter is also starting then and she is going for five months! I have decided I would die in the heat so am staying home and looking at blogs instead! |
| 20th May 2008 Todd | - From: " APPLES ARE FROM KAZAKHSTAN" Hi..loved reading about all of your travels and adventures. I have a friend who lives in Karaganda..I believe it is called. Have you ever visited this city? Thanks! |

Have to say very impressive! Some great photos you have taken and it looks like you have a lively crowd, should be some fun. I will continue following your journey as you pursue south, can't believe you'll see charles in capetown, that will be sort of surreal i guess! Have fun. Keep posting. Jonny |

| 17th May 2007 anonymous | - From: shantytowns in Belgrade Hi, the shanty towns outside belgrade are not where Serbians live, they are gipsy shanty towns...just so you know, Serbia is not as poverty ridden etc as people think, in fact even the poor live quite well from my experience. x |
| 14th May 2007 Jill | Azerbaijan - From: FIRST BUSH CAMP Dear Mr. Pinoy, My name is Jill, I am a high schooler at the Graham school in Columbus Ohio. For one of our class projects we had to read a travel writing blog. I chose to do mine on a country I had never heard of. Azerbaijan sounds like a really cool place. Was it hot? If you had to compare it to a country what country would you compare it to? Thank you for taking you time to read my comment, Jill Knapke |
