You Deserve it
blessings for your travel stretch

Hi Pi Wei, it's 30 years since I've been to Penang - my first & last time (so far). I guess it's changed enormously, but what doesn't seem to have changed is the obsession with food, and the variety available. Everard

Can't believe you said...
Did you really say that food didn't feature very high in Jakata???? It looks wonderful. If the shopping was better then it must have been out of this world!!!!! The photos of Jakata are super chic and beautiful. It's been sooooooooo wonderful reading about your adventures to date. It's my injection of the exotic here in dull old Lecce!!!!!!!! Have a great time in Bali... I bumped into my old yoga teacher the other day and told him that you were going to Bali for yoga and he turned flourescent green with envy... me too! Miss you sooo much Pi Wei! Big, big big kiss and cuddle to you!

hi
good luck with the dentist, i hope it doesn't hurt to much. looks as though you are having a relaxing time. take cars all luv JJ

Hi girlfriend
Wow go girl. it sounds as though you are going to have a very relaxing holiday. I'm sure you need it, it seems like ages since I last saw, "I think it is" and BA was a hundred years ago how time travels. We must catch up when you get back. I see your mum looks well and the blower really suits her. Have a safe and relaxing holiday. By the way how is Carla? do you ever see her, maybe we should all get together when you get back it would be good fun take care All my love JJ

fleeting moments
dearest val majestic moment to be on the road with your father and the idea of a book to read leaves me flabbergasted what to read the choice you had for sth america was right on the mark for india well a bit of dalrymple could do the trick mmmm maybe a bit serious i have just had a run on kurt vonnegut jr easy and imaginative leaves room for india to leave its impressions...look forward to you updates one day i to will see mother india and her breathless beauty love and safe travels my friend

Bon voyage
Hi Pi Wei I'm in France at the moment so can say that :). Great to hear you are just about to leave for India. I've read Nick Hornby's A Long Way Down and another book called Middlesex (can't remember the author) recently and enjoyed them a lot, both passed down to me from my daughter after we travelled together. I'd give them to you to take but haven't worked out how to dematerialise them and send across the ether so they get to you in time. Hope you have a wonderful time (and your father too). Wow, you'll only be 6000kms away, not 12,000. un fuerte abrazo Everard

hello
when will we see you?

kombucha
Pi Wei - you gotta tell me about this kombucha business....my mother was telling/asking me about it but it was all news to me. what's the story?
