| 23rd November 2009 MAC from California | Deep-Real-Perfect - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go There comes a time in each of our human experiences when we wake up and really see and hear everything for the very first time. It is suddenly all so beautiful. The birds singing…the sun shining…so beautiful... just like you. People come into our lives for all kinds of reasons. Some only for a moment as if to just check in and make sure all is well…others find each other again and again lifetime after lifetime…our circle of love…those who really “get” us…understanding on a deep-deep level that is not of this world but cosmic in nature. And that Claire Hall is you and me girlfriend…cosmic…divine…destined…soul sisters. I am so happy for you my bright shining light! Sending you much love and a BIG HUG. MAC oxoxo |
| 22nd November 2009 UNDERWAY | Hi, from Jim & Ann - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go A re-assesment of things past, A new begining, A rebirth with new ideals, A portability from heavy burdens, A re-cultivating of mind and spirit. So glad to see your name lite up my screen that you had written again. If you and Stu are still in contact, please tell him "HI" from Ann and I. We are well and coming into Winter here. Presently snowing with three new inches this morning. Best wishes this holliday season Claire, We wish you the best. Always, Jim and Ann Blanchard.... Underway jimb@nwi.net |
| 22nd November 2009 Jo Trouble | An inspiration as always - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go Hi Claire, Amazing words from an incredible person :-) xxx Jo |
| 22nd November 2009 Geordie Mike | - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go Glad to hear it is still all going well- sorry to hear about you and Stu though. Mike x |
| 22nd November 2009 Robin Sayer | Good on you girl - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go We all live in the world we create around us. It is nice to see someone who says "no, this is not the reality I choose to live in". To change your perception, to lift your eyes from the gutter of everyday life, takes courage beyond most of us and demands the greatest of respect. So I say, with love and respect. "Good on you girl". |
| 22nd November 2009 anonymous | - From: SECOND SKIN - The final story. the perhentians are cool place ,, not as good as seven years ago but still isolated enough, and the reason that there's cats galore is because they're the free range kind of cat if you know what i mean? (tastes just like chicken ha ha) |
| 22nd November 2009 Tony | Masterful - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go Lifetimes of experience brought together in one bite sized chunk by an amazing master of sharing and uniting all at the same time. You are a well cultivated soul Claire - keep on inspiring !! From one of your many proteges. Much Love and Respect. T xxx |
| 22nd November 2009 Kent D. Converse | Awesome!!!!! - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go Great writing as usual. Everything seems to turn out alright for you. You are a valuable person. I love your insights, your writing and....you. |
| 22nd November 2009 denidax | wow - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go Great as always!!!... and superb pics. Sorry to hear about you and Stu. Hope you are well!!!!! |
| 22nd November 2009 Emma Farrell | My Soul is Fully Cultivated - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go Really nice to see a conclusion on your travels Clare, it has been quite a journey for you! Great to hear that you are fully cultivated. I think that what happens to us in life can often be a reflection of our headspace. When we reflect a positive energy, it can do wonderful things. Long may it last! I am back from my travels too and am looking forward to what the future holds. |
| 22nd November 2009 Emma Farrell | My Soul is Fully Ci - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go I finally got it into my head that everything that happens is not by accident or by chance that it is most certainly some kind of divine synchronicity which has already been mapped out for me eons ago. I must remember that I am fully protected by some greater force as I go forth. My soul is now fully cultivated. |
| 22nd November 2009 Steve Sampford | Something sustains us - From: Wake Me Up Before We Go Go It occurs to me often, that many are crushed by a mere fraction of the challenges and choices you so ably describe; that we must therefore be an active part of something far beyond our limited understandings. 'It' facinates me and draws me ever closer and one of my joys in it, is to know someone else who seeks true understanding as well. Beautiful! xxx |
| 17th November 2009 Miriam Guerrero | REQUEST PHOTO OF CALIXTA GABRIEL - From: SHAMAN SCHOOL ¡Hi! I'm Miriam. I work a newspaper named The News in Mexico city. We want to publish an article about Calixta Gabriel. I saw a photo, but is possible use the image. Than you for attention! Regards! |

| 8th November 2009 bec | beautiful children - From: Orphaned children in need. myself and my friend were fortunate enough to be able to visit these wonderful children in october 2009. the night before we met the children, we bought some supplies for them, exercise books, pens, pencils, puppets, balls and hair elastics. the looks on the childrens faces was priceless. they are a bunch of children that i will not forget anytime soon. my friend and i both work in education and have put a letter out to the parents asking for donations so we can send them over to the kids. beautiful country, beautiful people. |

| 30th August 2009 mindaugas | - From: The sadness in Happisburgh hello please let me know how to buy a house by the see (i heard that i culd buy a house for 1gbp) is it true ??? |

| 28th May 2009 PA Leslie | Hi Claire! - From: SECOND SKIN - The final story. One question...was this a "planed" travelblogger meeting? We are going to Perhentians in just a month...and we should meet Ali either there or in KL...it's a small world! Where is your next dive? Peter |
| 2nd May 2009 Mell | - From: Being robbed by a little old lady. This blog reminds me of why I rarely travel with more than 10KG. I hate looking after my stuff and I hate insurance companies even more. If I ever have more than 10KG with me, it is stuff I no longer need and plan to give away to beggers and people living in slums because nobody in wealthy Europe wants it. :) |
| 6th April 2009 Joe | paths - From: Cremation of the last great King of Bali Hi Claire, I was reading Autobiography of a Yogi at Bunga Permai hotel where I found your address, just had to look and see what it was when I came home, got a surprise and have enjoyed your comments on Bali. Do you think you will return to Bali some day? I hope wherever you are you are happy. |
| 21st February 2009 Mell | - From: Cremation of the last great King of Bali What a travel experience! :) |
| 4th January 2009 jtayli | Lights Out - From: Hanoi-Beijing 3145 km of rocking & rolling. The good thing about Chinese trains, especially with a hard-sleeper or lower, is that it's lights out at about 10.00pm or thereabouts. If people are still talking or smoking for that matter, you can always shout at them: talking and smoking is not allowed. And the joy of all joys is that with a soft-sleeper you can switch the music off yourself if you are clever enough to know where the switch is. Some people are like Winston Smith in 1984: "You can switch the telescreen off!" "Yes Winston, we have that luxury." |
| 17th December 2008 pam | Xmas message - From: A stitch in time Thanks for posting this Claire, I have just seen it, and think the message is timeless anyhow and universal, these innocents needs our love and help, if only schoolchildren here who hate school could see this, it might make them more humble, whatever, lovexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |
| 26th November 2008 alpbabe | take your cast offs - From: A stitch in time I forgot to mention, earlier, they really need any old clothing you might have if you're passing that way. Even if it wont be worn they can make canvas for their paintings. they are also in dire need of oil paints |
| 24th November 2008 Tony | Hmmm - From: A stitch in time You and the people you encounter are an inspiration to us all. Please stick some of your energy and tenacity in the post. Much Love T. |
| 21st November 2008 the soul cultivator | A true example of the power of the written word - From: A stitch in time Bev you are a real star...thank you for visiting the children, I look forward to your blog about them. |
| 20th November 2008 Colette | Thanks Claire - From: A stitch in time Hi Claire. Thanks for throwing some light on a great man and a great project!! Hoan and the kids are inspirational and I would love to help in a practical way as well as financially if there is a possibility of doing so. Colette |
| 19th November 2008 alpbabe | directions update - From: A stitch in time Hi there all, Please, Please, Please, take a minute or two and visit these guys. They are in a new location (see map above) and if you stand facing the East entrance to Ta Prohm Temple turn right and follow a dirt track about 100 meters. The track then turn right, keep following it where it again turns right then left. The house and yard are then about 20meters on. Ask for the New Pagoda if you need additional directions. We plan on putting signs up this afternoon so it should be easier to find. New photos and blog will follow in December once I return to Europe. |
| 9th November 2008 Mike and Charlotte | Inspiring - From: A stitch in time Truely inspiring. People never stop amazing me. Those with little can give so much. Funny how the temples bring in so much foreign money but so little goes to those who need it! |
| 9th November 2008 Beverley | only a few days to go.... - From: A stitch in time Hey Claire, great update. I've sent an email already to let Heng know I'm on the way. We already brought things from Europe like pencils and books and will check with him on arrival what he needs at the moment. Is this what you would like me to print off for him? If not just send the link and I'll get it printed. Updated coming soon. xxx Bev |
| 8th November 2008 graciela | Thank you - From: A stitch in time Thank you for your sensitive soul. I also work helping people who need different things in my city. It´s a hard work and it has to be constant and with lots of sacrifice. I am planning a trip to South East Asia for next year. I will go to Cambodia. Thank you again. Love from Argentina. |
| 4th November 2008 kim | You're not getting off the hook that lightly! - From: SECOND SKIN - The final story. I loved this final entry, wiped a tear with the rest of them. Now you need to get on with an everyday blog. Sound of fingernails drumming..... Love you. |
| 25th October 2008 Mike and Sarah | AMAZING!! - From: SECOND SKIN - The final story. Hi Claire, well, I've just read your blog in the office, after running over to Sarah with some tissues and wondering why she was crying yet smiling from ear to ear..... now I know. It truly has been a pleasure to be able to share in your incredible journey, one that has taken in so many adventures rather than one big one. If a picture tells a thousand words, your thousands of pictures and wonderful words tell an AMAZING story. Well done for confronting your fears, listeing to your heart and living your life. Keep living the dream, Michael.xx |
| 24th October 2008 denidax | all good things come to an end - From: SECOND SKIN - The final story. An era has just finished... just to let a new one start... please, keep blogging from England, it's a whole new world there for you now!!!... Good luck on everything you try and all the best for you and Stu!! |
| 24th October 2008 alohaceline | that was awesome! - From: SECOND SKIN - The final story. hey claire! I just feel so strange because I subscribed to your blog before I went to travel myself and I just realise now that we were on the perhentians at the exact same moment! I have seen you around but didn't realise it was you, claire from the blog. very sad, I would have loved to meet you :) Have a save trip back home |
| 24th October 2008 Mike and Sarah | You've cultivated our souls!! - From: SECOND SKIN - The final story. Claire, I read your blog from my desk in an office, with a coffee in hand, I am smiling from ear to ear and do have a tear in my eye. Your journey has been absolutely incredible not just for the places you have been, but for the way you have shared them with us all. I found your blog last year when we were travelling in Asia & were thinking about taking a detour to Central America, you have inspired me so much. Reading your thoughts on learning to dive I can relate to completely, that feeling of the unknown deep seas and the euphoria when you realize you actually "love" diving is simply incredible. Continue to listen to your heart & live for your todays! With much much love, Sarahxx |
| 23rd October 2008 Justin - sprucemoose | Well done! - From: SECOND SKIN - The final story. Good effort on a long journey! Im also jealous that you managed to meet The Great One (Ali). Great will be the day when I get the same opportunity! |
