| 28th April 2008 al gal | - From: The one where I love... HI! Good to here from you and your suggestions. Have you been to Liberia? I would love to go and have been in touch with some organizations there, if you have any suggestions on where to work there it would be much appreciated. Sorry you've had bad run ins with Allisons, but we're not all alike. I only go by Ali. I tend to write long blogs per requests of my family and friends that I can't generally stay in contact with because of bad phone connections and crappy internet. But thank you for your comments, they are very much appreciated. Take care! |
| 28th April 2008 Menipakei Dumoe(MD) | You should check out Liberia. - From: The one where I love... Hey, I have only just started reading you blog and I already have sugestions for you. First of all, is that you need to see some of the most green parts of west Africa. The next one is that you should write shorter postings. May be you wont reply I have met a lot of Allisons and they are most of the time snobs, but hopefully you are not and I will get some response from you on my concerns and sugestion. I must say this posting of yours was good. |

Kepp fingers crossed! Keep writing please! I dig around for anything about Gambia all the time and I love getting personal views of "back home". By the way are your from the US? If you are I have questions in regards to flights. Thanks! |

| 1st April 2008 Kathy, Loora's mother | HA - From: The one where I am a victim of a practical joke Love your blogs beyond words. This was a laugh out loud for a while. Tell your Gambian neighbors of April Fools Day, just love the trickster games. Also your brother's random surprises. We have some similar traditions in the Oxenreiter household, we like to buy strange little flea market figures for 10 cents or so and hide them in peoples shoes or soccer bags or in a surprising pose somewhere. Classic!!! |
| 13th March 2008 al gal | - From: The one where I am ushered into the holy land Hi Alexsandra: I'm sorry it has taken me so long to get back to your message. I would like to talk with you more about your ideas for your film. Also, If you have any specific questions for me you would like answered feel free to ask. The best way to get to me is through email, ali.chandler@gmail.com. Thank you so much for reading and your interest. I look forward to talking with you soon. |
| 7th March 2008 Kathy Oxenreiter | Laura's mom - From: The one where I ka-ka-kamoonicate Hey there Allie, Enjoying your blog quite a lot. Glad you survived your bout with malaria, quite a scary thought to me. And commend you for your passion for life in the Gambia and stepping out of the expected path that a lot of people take when raised in a society like ours that treasures accumulating things that don't nourish a person's soul in the least. Your last topic of communication reminds me of one of my favorite songs (by Keith Whitley, also redone by Alison Krauss) "when you say nothing at all" |
| 25th February 2008 Laura/Mariama | - From: The one where I explain Alli, you should write as a career. I just read like 6 entries in a row, and maybe it's because I already lived there, but I just could feel like I was there, and you can just convey everything perfectly. Miss you and mbaa nga am jama rek. |
| 14th February 2008 jill | - From: The one where I am ushered into the holy land The Bible's blind, the Torah's deaf, the Qur'an is mute If you burned them all together you'd be close to the truth - four winds by bright eyes |
| 13th February 2008 Aleksandra | Hello :) - From: The one where I am ushered into the holy land Hey! I am doing a research about Gambia for my final project and I found your travelblog! It is so interesting to read first hand experience from there. I subscribed to your blog :) Aleksandra from Estonia |
| 11th February 2008 Ramatoulie | AH! - From: The one where I have a baby yo bizz it's Renee. You're talking about MY PLACE Podium Pub!! Were you talking about Paul?? Paul Gomez that is. If it is Paul, please tell him that Ramatoulie is coming back to the Gambia in the fall and I am looking forward to seeing him. Much appreciated love!! |
| 7th February 2008 Matt C | - From: The one where I feel accomplished When I was in Mexico I would often think thoughts that started with, "When I get back to real life...". It took me a while to realize that, No, this IS real life. This is as real as it gets, and it is no more or no less real than life back "home." It's just life, and it's not stopping or slowing down for anyone. That may or may not have anything to do with what you said here but I thought I would share it all the same. Hope you're doing well, Ali. See you this summer? |
| 24th January 2008 Laura | - From: The one I cannot name YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE PINEAPPLE |
| 15th January 2008 Han | Public, meet Frank. Frank, meet Public - From: The one where I semi-leave I love the rawness of this little entry (I would say blog, but this is the only one I've read thus far). Also it's 7:30am, and I'm having earl grey. Love, han |
