Friend of your mom's Hi Anne,
I am sure that you don't know me, but I used to work with Teril until a couple of months back. She used to talk about your travels and forwarded me your blog.
As you can tell from my name, I am from India (Mumbai city). While in India, I travelled outside my state only twice, once to Goa and another time to Bangalore. It is very interesting to learn stuff from someone who has seen more India than I can ever think of. I am going to use your blog as my guide of places to see in India. I am amazed by the sheer number of places that you have visited. I probably know only half of them. I hope that I am not haggled by vendors as you have been when I visit them. But then, I am used to ignoring the meddlesome traders and most likely, they will think of me as a poor Indian (they keep a lookout for only rich foreigners).
It has been a pleasure reading your blog.

EXCELLENT PHOTO TRAVEL SITE While searching for a photo of a turkey to place on my AOL PICTURES site, I came upon TOMMY NO PAPERS cool travel blog and then your captivating and compelling title about GETTING NAKED with STRANGERS (and eating their food) Thanks, Robert huffstutterr@aol.com
I love the pictures! That Indian artist is awesome. I'm impressed. I love this travel journal of yours. It's such a cool idea. I'm gonna give you a call sometime on your international cell phone, Anne. I've got so much to tell you. I miss you!
Hey Anne. I love your online journal and this blog! It's such a different world out there and thanks sooo much for sharing. The pictures are added treats. I'm so jealous of your experience, and adventure. I wish I was there with you. We miss you back here in Cali!
That's a big hunk of squid! Anne. That's a big piece of squid!
Last time I was in Korea, we watched the squid fisherman come in with their live catch. This random guy walks onto a boat, reached into one of the tanks grabs a live 6 inch squid by the tip, gives it a twirl and pops it into his mouth. It all happened so fast we could hardly believe it.
I had my doubts abut the movie- but I'm convinced! I have to see it now! Sounds like you are already having some cool experiences! Hope you are having a great time!
Good Luck! Hi, just joined too so shall follow your trip with interest - i'll send a few tips when I get a chance for Bangkok and a few of your other stops. I used to work with some guys from Portland Helicopters based in Sudan mny years ago - travel safe! Andy.
I am a biology teacher and a lab tech at the community college in Portland, OR. I'm taking four months off to travel (mostly) solo for three months in Asia, 1 month in Australia, and will be spending Christmas with my family in Hawaii. I'm doing some volunteering in India and Nepal to see how I feel about public health and social work and figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life! ... full info
