Cool Blog. Morning groovers. I woke this morning praying for you mob, and then on firing up the email there you were! Cool pics. Had a great Boat Day Saturday with many of your rellies. All good. Your Dad even went for a sail in the laser in round 15knots gusting 20. Was good. (I was ballast!) Stay well and safe. Keep those posts coming. G
great pics Hi Miriam, Thanks for doing the blog thing! Lovely to see photos of your new home and gorgeous girl! She is such a cutie. Things are going fine here in Sri Lanka - though of course we are missing all our relocoted friends! Give Jo, Jo and Dove greeting from us!
Great photos and thanks for the update Hey guys,
Nice to see you guys have settled in. Charlotte is a darling and we miss her so much...not to mention you guys too. Oh we do hope that we'll get a chance to use those extra beds of yours ha ha.
Much love,
Lohan.
Thank You Hello .I live in Wellington New Zealand and I found you blog while surfing the net at work. I read each post and enjoyed it very much.
I was born and have lived in Sri Lanka till I was 15, then moved to New Zealand and only visited Sri Lanka once. So I just want to say thank you very much for what you guys are doing in Sri Lanka and specially all the Risks you have taken by taking your new family back to Sri Lanka. I wish you all, the best of luck.
Thank you again.

Nostalgic Memories. It is wonderful to picture many of the places you went to. So glad we had our time with you. Memories are still fresh. We loved our stay.
Hi Miriam & Murray Great to know you are back and into it again. Lovely to see the photo's of the opening and yours and Murray's comments. We can picture it all now. So glad we came. Blessings on you both.
Great Pics! Hi Miriam - you're still getting around okay then! I'm sitting here in Vanuatu understanding the heat in your photos more as the humidity is very high here! One workshop down and half way through a conference on tourism investment. That sari will come in handy as it expands with you! Thinking of you heaps! Love Jenny x
Wow, you look very settled in the Highlands! Hi Guys, the photos are fantastic , you both looking great, and obviously life is treating you well! Edinburgh, isn't it amazing, and glad to hear you shopped till you dropped, and by the way the weather is not much better here. Take care Hugs Jo
Great pics Good to see your new home. Made us feel at home especially to see Murray's Mum and Dad enjoying your hospitality. Wish we could visit. Murray looks to have a very healthy tan Makes Jocelyn envious. Love, Jocelyn and Peter
Leopard hunters! The house looks gorgeous and well noted those comfy couches! :)
Miriam - lucky u have a running background with the combination of an open-sided jeep and leopards......hmmm. And good to see your keeping up your fashion stance with the footwear! :)
Keep living it up u 2, it is just surreal what your doing! Hugs :)

Shah bash--Well done. Thanks enjoyed your blog. you grace a sari well, Miriam. Impressed with your early climb, you were well rewarded.

Dad and Mum
Beautiful! I'm glad Nusca and co decided to do your hair, you look lovely. Good to know someone is looking after you now I'm not there to do your make-up! Pretty colour choice for the sari, and nice abs!
Hi All the photos look good. I especially liked the ones of Miriam all dressed up in a Sari. I am pleased to hear that even though you are fit and healthy, all those steps left you a bit sore Miriam!! Did you count them?? Glad to see you are both still enjoying yourselves.
Fantastic photos Murray and Miriam
We are really enjoying your photos and commentary. Makes us feel as though we are really there.
Keep them coming
Blessings
Looking like locals Great to see the impact you guys are having over there. Just thinking that you have gone from 'newbies' to host, tour-guide and locals pretty quick!!
Thinking of you both and praying for you.
hedgehogs!! I'm sitting here trying to look at all the photos and Marcail is bugging me saying 'click on the porcupine picture, click on the porcupines Mummy'. So I finally click on the porcupines and what do you call them - oh yes - wierd hedgehog things!!
Looks like you had a great time with everyone. Very very envious. Lotsa love, Erin =)
weird hedgehog things The 'weird hedgehog things' are actualyy the Indian porcupine (Hystix indica), found from Israel through to South East Asia. When born, the quills are short and soft (bet their mothers were grateful for that) but Sarah was lucky - they have caused tiger fatalities by getting their quills stuck into creatures that got too near.... (amazing what you can look up on google isnt it!)
I do enjoy your webblogs so keep em rolling. Love heaps, Tim.
Fascinating! Have at last found the time to read through your travel blogs,,, all the way back to the begining of your amazing adventures. We are full of admiration (and a little envy!!).
As you know our past working enviroment history all I can say is 'how come you get to work in such a beautiful place????'
Great reading. Keep it up.
Our overseas move started in 2005, with a brief vacation in India. Then we joined the Tsunami relief team in Sri Lanka for a couple of years. We were then based in Nairobi, Kenya for 9yrs. Then based in Geneva, Switzerland for the past 4 years with Murray in a global role still travelling around to the hot spots. Now back in our home country of NZ, keen to explore the beauty and adventure NZ has to offer.... full info
