I am always amazed by your adventures and love to read about them.  I can be there with you through your writing and can just imagine you dealing with the cranky hotel owner.  You have always been so trusting of everyone you meet and just can’t fathom why anybody would ever want to be mean to you!  I have nothing but admiration for your ability to head off on your travels and put the highlights into words for us to enjoy!  Looking forward to reading the whole book!
