| 1st November 2009 naomi kebba | great insight - From: Speaking of "universal health care" Hi Alex, i must say you have captured the scene in South Sudan perfectly. Thanks for not sugar coating anything especially about the garbage disposal. It is frankly put and does not sound the least bit judgemental. I work in Nimule hospital as a doctor and u saw exactly what i see daily. It is depressing for the most part but what I also see is the love the people have for eachother and their homeland. One thing is for sure, life in S.Sudan will get better. I have seen changes in the short time I have been here that prove it. So u r one of the few who will have the real before and after picture- very soon. Stay tuned! |
| 23rd October 2009 Diane Millikan | You're a superior communicator - From: Speaking of "universal health care" Alex, I have been extremely impressed--riveted--by your travel blogs. You are a wonderful, facile writer and clearly an insightful, empathetic, passionate person. Merlin is lucky to have you help us privileged Westerners better understand things from the ground--which is where, after all, it's all happening, all day, every day. I hope your re-entry to the US isn't too difficult; I know you'll be stunned by all that we have and take for granted (and now, thanks to your blogs, so am I). Diane |

| 18th October 2006 Mareen | All the best - From: Integration a la Taiwanese Hello Alex and Becca, I am glad Taiwan is such an adventure to you that you may explore together during the first time of Alex' stay. Now that Becca knows where Alex' is at, it is probably easier for her to understand and feel with him when she gets back home. Take care, M. |
