| 26th July 2009 travelbuffs | don't go, just yet - From: Living It Up 1920's Style! You going back "home" came as a kind of shock to me. I was like "aaah". But I am glad I peeked into your profile that updated me on your sailings. So, it is not a break to travelling & blogging, I hope. It's been like we've have been traveling with you to Greece & Turkey & the Amazon. Thanks for the journey! travelbuffs |

| 6th March 2009 explorer_keith | Finding a Room - From: The First of Seven Wonders I never had a hard time finding a room in Turkey. I never had a reservation in any of the towns I visited. Capadocia and Istanbul were the only places that I possibly needed a reservation, but I managed there as well. Have fun, Turkey is an amazing place. -Keith |
| 5th March 2009 Hakan Karaagac | Visiting Selcuk - From: The First of Seven Wonders Wow, thats a great account of Selcuk, I'm thinking of going to Turkey in the summer but I've never been by myself. Would you recommend finding a room once I arrive or booking in advance? Hakan |
| 1st March 2009 travelbuffs | - From: The First of Seven Wonders I am up-to-date with your blogs, but probably the 1st time to comment. The pics are all amazing- they make any person want to visit these places. Keep traveling! More importantly, keep blogging. |

| 1st March 2009 Kate | Great Photos - From: Across the Desert to the Mausoleum of a Commagene King The setting sun made for some great photos Keith! |
| 1st March 2009 Kate | Wow... - From: The End of a Multi-Continent Quest! Now that I think about it, the trip to the British Museum for you would not have been just an ordinary trip to a stuffy old bunch of dark rooms. Given your extensive travel experience, I can only imagine that getting in amongst it, with your knowledge of history, would have been a mighty experience - i actually wouldnt have minded doing it alongside you. Your knowledge and eye for detail really is superb. K x |
| 20th February 2009 Moses | Really great pics! - From: Aphrodite's City Your pictures really capture the moment of the time. I especially like the pictures of the auditorium. They really inspire the mood for vacation. |
| 13th February 2009 Mohammad Zohaib Khan | Traveling - From: Aphrodite's City Your blog is very nice & informative. I always appreciate your work. The snaps are very nice. Thanks to the sharing. Mohammad Zohaib Khan from Atlanta |
| 13th February 2009 Emma | - From: Aphrodite's City Hello, when looking at your pictures it instantly makes me want to go and visit these acient ruins. your blog was very interesting too! |
| 13th February 2009 The Travel Camel | Ah - the memories! - From: Aphrodite's City I was in Aphrodisias in 1992 and as rennovation was just commencing, there were no other tourists, and the only sign of life was a large snake that slithered between my feet! Apart from the stadium, everything looks so much cleaner and restored - there is even a museum now. This brings back many memories (including the not-so-welcome Turkish bus journeys) so thanks for this entry - and especially the photos! |
| 11th February 2009 Mohammad Zohaib Khan | Traveling - From: To the Cotton Castle Glad to see a new Blog. It is well written, very briefly define any thing. I always appreciate your work. keep going on. Mohammad Zohaib Khan from Atlanta |
| 9th February 2009 liliram | How timely! - From: To the Cotton Castle Came across your blog and found it a most interesting read. Am set to go to Turkey next month and Pamukkale tops my list. If you have rummaged more journals , no matter how "old" they are, just keep posting them! Am enjoying your blogs. |
| 7th February 2009 explorer_keith | Being Behind on Blogs - From: To the Cotton Castle I am trying hard to get my blogs up to date, but it is difficult. I will be traveling again in April, so I think I will try to do the new blogs as they happen and get caught up with the old ones as I can. Thanks for the complements, it was a great place. -Keith |
| 7th February 2009 AnnaAdventuring | - From: To the Cotton Castle Nice to see a new blog from you! I think your blogs are even more out of date than mine! It makes for fascinating reading. What a wonderful place to have visited. Lovely photos too. I look forward to your next update! :) |
| 2nd January 2009 explorer_keith | Camera - From: Over a Sunken City For all of the pictures in Turkey I used a Nikon D80, but I have used two other point and shoots for some of the earlier blog photos. |
| 2nd January 2009 AnnaAdventuring | - From: Over a Sunken City Lovely photos as always. I love your panoramic shot at the top! Really beautiful. If you don't mind my asking, what camera do you use? |

| 15th November 2008 Kresta | I loved this blog entry! - From: Exploring Constantinople Hi! I came across your blog and I just want to say that this entry inspired me to see this place someday soon. I am quite an amateur in traveling, and your blogis indeed very informative. Wishing you more great travels :) |
| 6th November 2008 explorer_keith | Working in Antarctica - From: A Journey Back In Time When I was working down there I got there by flying from New Zealand down to 'The Ice' on a big Air Force Reserve plane, which landed on an ice runway. I was there for nine months through the long, dark winter and my job was field engineer for a construction project. It was a lot of fun. Let me know if you have any other questions. |
| 3rd November 2008 kari | - From: A Journey Back In Time Hey there- I went to Antarctica a fews years back and fell in love with it. I have always thought of going to work and live there for a bit. I was wondering if you could answer a few questions to get em started. How did you get there? How long were you there and what was your job? |
| 31st October 2008 explorer_keith | The Europa - From: A Journey Back In Time The Europa started her life as the light ship Senator Brock back in 1911 on the river Elbe in Germany. |
| 31st October 2008 Byrklei | wow! - From: A Journey Back In Time I have an account here as well and I saw your picture on the top of the page and I was stuned! I just have a question- how old was that boat that you were on there?! Looks fantastic! |
| 18th October 2008 Estelle | WOW - From: A Journey Back In Time amazing trip! inspiring. travel safe. |
| 6th September 2008 around_the_world | - From: Exploring Constantinople Beautiful travel blog...and a great trip back to Constantinople time! Thank you for sharing it! and as usual...amazing pictures! Really love the one you took of "The Grand Doorway", well done! ps: dont worry French people ALL keep calling Beijing Peking (guess no one told them...hahaha) |
| 2nd September 2008 explorer_keith | Istanbul vs. Constantinople - From: Exploring Constantinople I do use the name Istanbul when I talk about the city, but, on the particular day I was writing about, most of what I visited was once part of Constantinople as well - It is possible to visit and explore the ruins of Constantine's city while spending time in the modern city of Istanbul. I am one of the few people that prefers Peking over Beijing - Perhaps I am just old fashion. |
| 2nd September 2008 Sallycigim | - From: Exploring Constantinople Very nice, erudite blog! It hasn't been Constantinople for over 500 years, though-- People don't say Peking anymore, how about giving Istanbul its proper moniker? Glad you loved it. |
| 26th August 2008 DeVonne Whitehead | Very Impressive!! - From: Exploring Constantinople I have been to Istanbul and I missed out on the beauty you shared here. These are absolutely beautiful pictures, and show the intensity of the Muslim religion. Thank you for the sharing. DeVonne |
| 8th August 2008 Raf Jah | Superb descripription - From: To the Magnificent Land of the Turks I love the fact that you are proud of your Americanness. Well done! More well done for being able to write so well. As you plane descended I knew exactly where you were. I've flown/bussed and trained into and outof Istanbul so many times that i could almost guess the runway you used. You've also really got a grip on the nation. Every backpacker should take that metro into town. Go east- see the rest. You'll be so surprised. Cheers raf |
| 7th August 2008 Odonnell | Thank You For Your Blogs - From: To the Magnificent Land of the Turks Howdy Keith Martin. You don't know me but, I came across your travelblog a few years past by accident. I was surfing internet while being click happy. I completely enjoy your blog. I'll never be able to travel to the destinations you've been to and I'm glad that you are able to. I truly get the feel of the land from seeing your photos and reading what you have to say in your own words. Your photos are magnificant but, you word your blog like an average guy with no pretentious words or paragraphs. I get a better understanding from what you've written than reading any National Geographic magazine, which is mostly advertisements now. You write as if you're speaking comfortably to a family member or friend. Anywho. I've been reading your travelblog for a few years now and I just wanted to thank you for taking the time, effort and nerve in sharing your travel adventures with the online community. May good luck and safety follow you in your future endeavours. D Odonnell |
| 21st June 2008 Amber | Bury St. Edmunds - From: The End of a Multi-Continent Quest! Hey Keith, You were right in my back yard. Bury St. Edmunds I know very well, did you make it to New Market or Cambridge? Those are all villages that I grew up around. Every Saturday we would go to Bury to get our fruit and veggies. Seeing the pictures made me miss home. Did you see the smallest pub in the world? It is in Bury. |
| 3rd June 2008 cato brekke | Well done, Keith! - From: The End of a Multi-Continent Quest! Nice blog, but when do we see you in Norway ? |
