| 2nd May 2008 Peter Hoag | You Guys - From: Home...at last Evan, Chris, You guys planed, committed to and executed a fabulous trip. Two unlikely souls in many ways formed the yin and yang to pull off a trip that overcame illnesses, poverty, burocratic incompetence. and sleeping together longer than some marriages last. What a friendship you have cemented. I am jealous of the brotherhood you have formed and so proud of your personal and social accomplishments. Mattresses for 50? Commin' Up!! your photos and excellent journalism kept us embedded with your joys and adventures. Hey! the Men who returned are 6 months older...wiser... and have seen a world that none of us have experienced. Good work son. I'm very proud Dad |
| 14th April 2008 Jordan Paul | - From: Venice; The Sinking City I'm so impressed at the budgeting! I never quite had the courage to take a night train... You guys are looking great- happy and terrifyingly grown up. Can't wait to hear about the rest of Italy! |

| 25th March 2008 Elias | - From: Kolkata; our last days in India As I sit here, in my cramped residence room with an unconcious drunk of a roommate working on a 3,000 word essay on the influence of Greek philosophy on Christian religions, I think to myself... "Wow, Evan and Chris were right. Elias, you're a goon." When are you cats coming home? |

You must have been listening to all geoff's comments, I think he secretly wanted to be a tour guide. It was our pleasure to help Evan and Chris, what well adjusted and well mannered lads. We truly enjoyed their company and their parents can be rest assured that they have allowed two very capable young men to travel the world. What an amazing oppportunity for them both and we wish them all the luck in the world and look forward to keeping up with their travels. |
