| 25th November 2009 Dave | what a treat - From: The New Hanoians Nancy and Joe - What a treat it is to get back in touch with your journey. Things of no real importance have distracted me for a while, and I'd set your postings aside. It's entertaining, inspiring, and just plain fun to read about your adventures. You guys are awesome! Thanksgiving is tomorrow, and the long weekend will give me time to sit down with a cup of coffee or glass of wine and leisurely catch up on your blog and give it the time it deserves. btw, in case you don't know, Myrna is spending a few weeks relaxing at her son's in Castle Rock. She says it's like the best spa one can imagine. She's recovering from successful quad bypass surgery. She is her usual happy and inspiring self. Keep up your awesome journey and your fascinating recounting of it. love dave |

| 24th November 2009 Susan Hokama | Just the ticket! - From: The New Hanoians Hi Joe and Nancy! It was just what I needed to read your blog today--thank you! I just finished yoga and for some reason it got me to crying! Marcilina always says it can open up emotions and it did! This also happened the las t time Jon was unemployed around the 8 month mark with nothing on the horizon. I know something will work out and God will be faithful as He always is but for some reason, I'm faltering this day so I was so happy to get your blog posting:) A bit of escape! It's so great to read of all the friends your making and the great food you're eating and the cultural experiences you're having! Do you really think you'll be able to come back in January? I think with all the fun you're having you should extend your stay!:) Love you guys and wish you the best Thanksgiving ever! Susan |

| 19th September 2009 Pam Culig | Bravo - From: Right now, we are feeling pretty darn blessed! HI Nancy and Joe Bravo to you both. for putting yourselves on the line to immerse yourselves in culture. and graduating from your lanquage course. I have always been impressed and humbled when I have patients who are immigrants. It take an enormous amount of courage to learn a foreign lanquage and adapt to a new culture. You both look great. The heat and hummidity would absolutely be a challenge. I have loved following your journey. Take care of yourselves. Love Pam Culig |
| 14th September 2009 KC | travels - From: Right now, we are feeling pretty darn blessed! Hey guys -- great stuff ... and congrats on finishing the course and getting jobs.

| 14th September 2009 Ann | Wow - From: Right now, we are feeling pretty darn blessed! Nancy & Joe, Thanks you for sharing your adventure. It sounds like you are having an amazing time. Nancy, you look so happy in your pictures. Please, keep me posted. Ann |

So happy that you made it through. You both look so exhilarated and happy in all the photos. It makes me smile - It's contagious! I'm just delighted that you're doing so well, developing good friendships, and delving deeper into the heart of VN. Stay well. Are you seeing an acupuncturist/herbalist? Love and hugs, Carole P.S. Are you staying in Hanoi for the remainder of your trip? |
| 12th September 2009 roger | - From: Right now, we are feeling pretty darn blessed! Nancy and Joe, I'm glad you're both doing so well, making many friends and settling in. It looks like a fantastic trip, and I know you're both enjoying your teaching experiences. I'm jealous of all the good food too! RP |
| 12th September 2009 Nancy Brady | Kudos to you both - From: Right now, we are feeling pretty darn blessed! Hi Nancy and Joe, Wow!!! I am once again entertained... wowed.... and inspired... by your adventure. You write so well Nancy and the photos make it all so real.. Thank you for sharing this... I just love it... looking forward to you teaching me some cooking when you get back... if you ever want to... It will be a real culture shock to come back to the states, and to all of us, who haven't done much but the same old... same old... I am loving my work at UNM and still my school...I am grateful to be a 61 year old art teacher, with "too much work" in this economy. I am starting an after school Shalom Club with older students... we are trying to find homes for our Peace Quilts. We have joined Peace Pals and they will match us to kids from around the world to be pen pals with, and hopefully find a home in several different countries for the quilts... Maybe you can help us get one to Vietnam. We also would be open to a couple of young 4/5th graders who want to be pen pals... maybe you could translate? So my questions are this... Would you be willing to help us with this? Do you know of any child who might be an orphan, or suffering a childhood illness, or who would be interested in becoming a Peacemaker in their lives, and a friend to one of my students? We will send a quilt to them... you could document it for us with photo's... Please e-mail me directly to respond... nbrady@unm.edu The gang had a great time in Pagosa and you were missed... I didn't make it this year... family emergency had me quite stressed.. decided to stay home and rest... and yes.. it did rain buckets... Love Nancy |
| 11th September 2009 Michael Carr | - From: Right now, we are feeling pretty darn blessed! Glad to know you are alive and doing very well. Keep me posted |
| 11th September 2009 Ellen Cohn | pretty different from UNH Practicum - From: Right now, we are feeling pretty darn blessed! Dear Nancy and Joe, Thank you for sharing your travel log. Nancy, your teachng training is quite different from the UNH Psychology Teaching Practicum. It sounds much better. Maybe we should send our graduate students to the same program to improve their teaching. I am envious of your trip! Enjoy! Ellen |
| 5th September 2009 Dave | Thanks again - From: The Rehumanization Tour: Phase II Thanks for you most recent posting. it's been great to follow your adventures.

| 15th August 2009 Catherine Welch | Great Phase II Transistion Report - From: The Rehumanization Tour: Phase II Very nice pad you found! Interesting to hear about the intensive training. I would not have guessed that it would be so rigorous! I think it's great that you are finding local people to socialize with. I know it can be lots of effort to interact with language barriers, but so incredibly rewarding in the long run. WSG continues to have fine gatherings. What an amazing group of women. We miss you! Love, Catherine |
| 15th August 2009 Constance | Greetings from Denver - From: The Rehumanization Tour: Phase II Sounds like you two are doing great! Glad you found a good ESL course and already jobs when you finish. All is well here. Car running fine and I really enjoy having it. Love, Constance |

| 9th August 2009 Christine Oliver | Yummmm - From: Post #7: Vietnam, one spring roll at a time! Hello Nancy and Joe, It sounds like a fabulous experience. I am so inspired that I have talked my husband (Gregory Rudolph) into coming with me to Vietnam - sometime after I sell my house in the spring (I hope). The food did the trick. Neither of us was particularly interested in going until your blog. I saw Julie and Julia yesterday - all about food. Delicious food. A love story all around - Julia and Paul, Julie and her husband, and then of course the love affair everyone in the film was having with food. And Julie was writing a blog - cooking all 524 Julia Child recipes in Mastering the Art of French Cooking in 365 days. It reminded me of this. If either of you ever has to give up your day job - Joe, hope to meet you someday. Nancy, I'll keep you posted about DOR. No action yet but soon. Enviously, Chris |
| 4th August 2009 Nancy Brady | Food..fabulous...food.. - From: Post #7: Vietnam, one spring roll at a time! Wow... this was amazing... I eat this food often here in Albuquerque.. but it doesn't look like what you have shared.. You both look wonderful, healthy and so tanned Joe... Is it still very hot there? It is 100 here in Abq. but we spent almost 2 weeks camping in Pagosa and it was fabulous... getting ready to go back to the 10 month school year of work... You two are an inspiration to do something like this someday... But....Saw Max a week ago for Judy's birthday... he is doing fine... unless there are thunderstorms...He hides in the laundry room... Judy has been taking him to her Mom's assisted living place... he is becoming a therapy dog for the old folks... he is a sweetie...soooo you two travellers... we miss you and will really miss you at Pagosa folk festival... Kevin says he will drink many beers in your honor... Peace...Nancy and KC |
| 3rd August 2009 Michelle Todd | Happy Birthday - From: Post #7: Vietnam, one spring roll at a time! Dear Nancy and Joe, Hope you had a nice birthday Nancy! Sure miss you guys! All The Best, Michelle |

Keep sending the pics, I look forward to getting them. You only have 10 months left, how much food can you eat. Love you Alba |
| 24th July 2009 Diana Black | You got to me! - From: Post #7: Vietnam, one spring roll at a time! Your food-athon is wonderful and inspiring. I've so enjoyed your travel stories and now the saliva flows enviously (not very Buddhist of me) as I peruse the gorgeous pics of food and fun. Colorado summer is good, too much work, but lots of playing too. I just got a new grill, so I'll be cooking some Vietnamese inspired food this weekend. Thanks! |
| 21st July 2009 Nancy | - From: Posting #6: The Ancient City of Hoi An I love hearing about your adventures. Nancy, you are such a great writer!!! I was especially envious of the linen and silk clothes you had tailored. I've heard you can get all sorts of great clothes made for very little money. I feel for the young people working 7 days a week all day and all night....I would be having a major pitty party if that was my work schedule!!! I just returned from NYC and had a great time with my nephew. I hope my next trip can be somewhere out of the country!!! |
| 19th July 2009 carole melkonian | - From: Posting #6: The Ancient City of Hoi An Dear Cho and Nancy, So good to hear from you, learn more details of your trip and see the beautiful photos. I so loved (!) seeing Avalokitesvara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion in the cave of Thuy Son. So exquisitely beautiful! I delight in your journey and wish you happiness, insights, and safety as you continue on. On more mundane issues here...the house project is nearly done! You will actually have a comfortable and private place to stay next time you visit ;-) Love to you both, Carole |
| 18th July 2009 P Diddy | Awesome!!! - From: Posting #6: The Ancient City of Hoi An Hey Joe & Nancy: G, Frankie and I have thouroughly enjoyed your blog!!! You should definitely be a writer Nanc... What a fascinating country. I just love being able to check in on you guys and learning about another part of the world. I have even shared your blog stories with friends... Thanks for sharing and please stay safe!!! Love you guys!!!! |
| 16th July 2009 Bob Schell | Thanks! - From: Posting #6: The Ancient City of Hoi An Hi Nancy. These have been great to read ... thanks for posting and sending. If this article is any sense of what you remember/write when you "stretch your memory just a bit", I'd be interested in what a fresh article would produce! Anyway, hope all is well with you both. Take care and enjoy! Bob |

| 13th July 2009 Kristie Fields | I'm really enjoying this - From: Posting #6: The Ancient City of Hoi An Nancy and Joe, I just want you to know that I am really enjoying this. I envy you and you travels, but you make it feel as if I am there. Good luck to both of you and please keep me on you mailing list. Kristie |
| 13th July 2009 catherine Welch | Enjoying your reports - From: Posting #6: The Ancient City of Hoi An Great pictures and descriptions. You may recall, Nancy, that Mark and I lived in Malaysia for a couple years. Your story about visiting the tailors took me back to the luxury of getting personally tailored clothes. What a treat! The WSG met today at a community garden. It was our service project that Jenny arranged. Very fun afternoon of weeding, planting, and enjoying homemade rhubarb pie. The lovely lady who is the community leader of the garden joined right in as we opened and closed corners. I think she wants to join our circle! |
| 12th July 2009 Bob | Thanks guys - From: Posting #6: The Ancient City of Hoi An I see you guys are having fun. Thanks for sharing your stories and these great pictures Bob |

| 7th July 2009 elizabeth clair winslow | I breathe deeply for your story... - From: Post #5: Making Connections on the Central Coast Hi Nancy and Joe! Oh what a smile to be greeted by your auspicious face and beard Joe. I went quickly in search of my "sister" Nancy too. You folks look embued with happiness, maybe not for the heat and bad bike gears, but none-the-less happy. I read each word of your post and was taken with the experience of seeing Vietnam through your eyes. The photos and captions are worthy of NG publication! I am so happy you met the Buddhist student and Ex Pat from North Carolina. What richness to savor in your year abroad. I noticed Nancy that you typically wear a skirt or dress. Is that for the visits to pagodas and temples? I am thinking and tasting, (vicariously!) all the fresh, fresh seafood-- yummmm! Please accept my loving blessings for your next travels, contacts and contemplations. Much love, Elizabeth |
| 6th July 2009 Nancy Thorn | Man Oh Man - From: Delightful Dalat! It sure sounds like you are having tons of fun. You both look so happy and relaxed. Joe you look like a wise man.....like confucious or something!!! |

Bryan |
| 3rd July 2009 Carole Melkonian | Inspiring - From: Post #5: Making Connections on the Central Coast Hi Nancy and Joe-So great to keep current as the adventure unfolds. It makes me smile when I see who you're meeting and what you're experiencing. I'm really happy for you! There's a major gathering at the end of December in HCM City that I might go to. Will you be anywhere near there? Sending you much love and would love to see you. Be well in your travels! Love, Carole |
