| 15th April 2006 Amos Craig | Hey Yash, Fantastic Blog. - From: Turkey - V - The Last Chapter Yash, I googled your name and look what I found. WasnŽt sure if it was THE Yasha Zibin at first but then again, youŽre probably the only one. Fantastic pictures and funny stories. No skimping on the details, I like that. Souns like youŽre having a great time, a bit of time off work. You were working in Fort Mac, heard that place is pretty crazy, extreme in a lot of ways. Anyway, IŽm glad I found your blog, IŽll look out for more updates, and maybe IŽll see you this summer If I can make it out to the reunion. Chow. |

| 29th March 2006 Andrew | Good times bro!!! - From: Turkey - III Yasha, looks like an absolutely incredible time so far. Pics from SEA bring back many memories for myself. I definitely appriciate the real traveller attitude and heading on into the mountains without avail. Turkey looks like quite the spot. After hearing yours and wes's excapades I feel a little left out. Keep up the good work bro. Cheers. PS. I agree, the lake was likely high pH, bases = slippery... hahahahah |
| 29th March 2006 Caps | Red Heat storms Turkey - From: Turkey - III wow buddy, just read the 3 Turkey blogs and scoped pics. that looks amazing. i would love to see the old rock carved buildings and rugged mountains. u know how to travel YZ. i remember the food and hospitality too, both were outstanding. gotta love cheese and olives with every meal. i also remember the animosity between many Turks and Kurds and i felt the same as you do. dont understand the history of conflict. enjoy the coastal south, u may wanna trade that $3 sweater for some $3 shorts. hopefully not speedos like the locals though. |
| 27th March 2006 orhan | ayrun - From: Touring Turkey - Part II i think that drink with milk and yoghurt is called ayrun, now my spelling wont be correct but have you had any sejouk? its like a sausage thats spicy, you have for breakfast? im addicted to that stuff. or monte? its like little meatballs wrapped in triangular dough, and they serve it with yoghurt, nad a paprika sauce, its sweet. i hope you get to see antayla, marmaris, and bodrum man, it would be a shame if you didnt, but the soccer match in istanbul should be sweet too. if your there for a few, ill email my friend who lives there, ill see if she can take you out or something. have fun |
| 25th March 2006 Miles, Anna, Dmitri and Jen | What a ride - From: Touring Turkey - Part II Yash, What an amazing time....making your way through Turkey with a pocket translator is a skill not everyone has. We love reading your blog and can't wait to review things in person. Be safe! |

| 12th March 2006 Matthew | Sweet times! - From: Southern Cambodia Hey Buddy, Be careful you don't break too many young ladies hearts over there, or old men's either for that matter! Sounds like a wicked trip so far. I' extremely jealous. It snowed in Van the last two days and now today is a gorgeous blue sky spring day. Still can't seem to figure out the weather here. Ah well, the beers slide quite nicely whether it's a nice sunny day or a gloomy rainy day. Take care and travel safe. |
| 9th March 2006 Beth | - From: Southern Cambodia What an incredible trip so far. You have a knack for writing too. I still think five star is the best way to go, but hey! I'll be 50 this year. Those days of backpacking are long over. I am enjoying your blog immensely. Keep safe. Looking forward to the next leg. |

| 24th February 2006 Avra | Nice pics - From: Thailand - Check Your Morals at Immigration Maybe next time you should sleep with a cork in your ass. Let me know if you go to Japan, I have a friend in Akita, I think it's in the North. Nice pics! |
| 24th February 2006 K. Pipat | - From: Thailand - Check Your Morals at Immigration I am a Thai businessman who has nothing to do at all with rich(?) tourists and prostitution. Frankly speaking, I also regard prostitution as a profession and those "working ladies" as professionals. Those Thai girls are as moral (or immoral) as their counterparts all over the world. Thai sex industry is really nothing compared to American's which offers unimaginable sex services and supplies countless American porn websites with millions of really bizarre sex images readily available for viewing on every computer monitor in every American home. Why come see pingpong balls in Bangkok when you can view baseball bats or jumbo-size bottles in action at home? America, not Thailand, is the sex capital of the world. Sex industry there is extremely large and flourishing despite the fact that on average an American is 10 times "richer" than a Thai. Don't you think that is where the questions on morality should be asked and investigated? |
| 24th February 2006 Andrea | Hey Yash - From: Thailand - Check Your Morals at Immigration Good to hear from you! Stay away from strange men at night, and too many beer! Love your sister |
| 24th February 2006 Pall | back kisses - From: Thailand - Check Your Morals at Immigration Yash! Your photos are sweet and stories interesting, keep em' coming. Miss you bro, hope all is going well and you are getting all the back kisses you need! Take it sleazy. |

| 22nd February 2006 Eddie (Redmonton) | Bung Thai - From: Thailand - Check Your Morals at Immigration Hi Yasha, good to hear that your trip is off to a great start. Really enjoyed your writing and pics (wow, congrats on that Japanese duo!). Could have been worse if they were sumo wrestlers on that bus ride, eh? We're wishing you a fantastic trip. Careful where you step/drink/sleep! |
| 22nd February 2006 Benny Slats | Nice pics! - From: Thailand - Check Your Morals at Immigration Hey ya bastard, it sure looks nice down there. Wish I was with ya! What's up with you getting hit on by more gay guys? Seems to happen a lot, and those are only the ones you tell us about... |
