Hey You ! Jen dear,
Bill sent me your link and I love reading about your adventures and growth :) And Yes you are inspiring! Love that you are so fearless and share it so freely ! In May I finally earned my BA at Berkeley in Anthropology, (like a proud kid, I will mention it was with highest honors :) Bill is taking 2 classes a semester to finish off his MBA, the twins are seniors in high school and starting to hear back from colleges, and our older two daughters are happily learning the adult thing :) Katherine is working in HR at an insurance company and as she is such an advocate for what is fair for people I believe this is a very good match, and she is earning an HR certificate as well!. Liz, our oldest has gone back for her Masters in Communication and is writing and performing her songs around the bay. Very cool and she is really quite talented, many seem to love her music (besides her mother and father :) I wish you the very best and a Happy Holiday! Keep in touch!

change is good Hi Jen,
It's fun to read your travelblog again, even if this journey is a bit different from the last one. Lost love is tough. Sorry to hear you have been suffering. It does get better, but corny as it sounds, it takes time. But you already know all this, right? Can't wait to hear what happens next. I love the changes I decide to make. I hate the ones that come to me without my permission, but all of them give me chances to grow and be creative. You sound very clear about what you want, so knowing you, it shall be yours.
Love from the very cold Santa Rosa.
bureaucracies around the world ya mean that bureaucrats are the same the world over? Sorry! Sounds like the usual nightmare. Who woulda thought?! Glad to see the video of the ferry boat. Do they serve Bloody Mary's? Hey Jen, Zach started Kindergarten today. I can't believe my little guy is in school. Now his brother Leo is trying to worm his way into my heart and succeeding very well. I don't have any grandkid pictures in my wallet, but they sure are the light of my life. Good luck to you.
Love,
Lynn
a long way from India Hi Jen,
So glad your father is thriving and that the two of you are open and honest with each other. That's a rare thing. I know you'll find your way in Taiwan. It sounds very challenging. Hey, if you get tired of it, there's always San Francisco!
Love
Lynn
Hardcore! Now that you can ride a motorcycle (minus the crashes into houses, of course) I'll totally be your bike bitch. Holla!
Happy birthday my love! Every time I see your smiley face on here I am reminded of how lucky I am to know you. I'm so happy you left SF and are exploring the wide world. If and when you come back, we'll go out to all those places we did when I came home and I'll culture shock the shit out of you. ;)
too much fun Jen, it's a trip following your trip. What fun. You're an amazing person to be able to adapt to and enjoy so many different lifestyles. I'm in awe.
Love,
Lynn
Don't monkey with the monkeys Hi Jen,
You may be meditating and won't get this email for awhile. Just want to say that I am glad you escaped worse torture from the monkey mama. I remember being very worried about Corey as she sat on a bench surrounded by monkeys, hoping they wouldn't bite her. She was fine, but I was not. Glad you got to swim in the gange and that you are having the spiritual time of your life. Wish I were there for the yoga.
Love,
Lynn

Tibet Hi Jen,
Such interesting blogs. Thanks for taking the time to keep us all in the loop. I was wondering how a Chinese young woman is treated considering the political situation in Tibet. Such an interesting world we live in.
Love,
Lynn
PB&J!! That reminds me of the Nutella I bought while over there and proceeded to buy fresh bananas on all the time to eat with it...we got bread too and random crackers/biscuits. Damn lady...I miss you!!
sorry you're not feeling well Hi,
There's a gnarly flu making its way around Ca. Hope it didn't find you in India and that what you have is a small case of Indian food or water yukkies that will go away quickly. Must have been those momo's!!
Love,
Lynn
love you gal wow... you do have very cool trip! hope i can join that but you know if i cant ... keep post here as much as you can to let me join your trip here. love you and save trip.
Love the pictures Hi Jen,
You've certainly covered the miles. Amazing all the places you've been and the rich experiences. Must be fun to meet so many new friends, too. I remembered how cold it was when I was at the Taj after looking at pictures of everyone looking COLD. Hope you find that sunny beach. BTW, what's momo? I thought I knew the names of most Indian dishes, but you got me there!
Love,
Lynn
