hi letterfromthailand,
It just happens to me that ur writing also appears somewhere else though a slight change is observed.
Anyway, they are all very interesting and appealing to me

oh, well, it's never easy to get things as sweet as in heaven. I reckon it's real news but surely, nothing can be perfectly as described in the advertisements or similar things.
PS: I would love to enjoy the wilderness over there, tiring but really adventurous

I just checked out your site - unfortunately, I don't have a word of German! So what is your article going to be about? Give me a shout if you think there's something I can help with.
Yeah, it was quite amazing that it got the go-ahead so easily. Surely someone must have realised they were on shakey ground. It all seems to have died down now anyway, as things of this nature tend to. Thanks for the comment.
At present I was researching a feature story on Australia for our German travel guide to Australia when I discovered your site. Actually, I didn't find exactly what I expected. But, your article has given me inspiration for another article. Insofar: Thanks.
When the Minstrels did it it was of course racist because they set out to ridicule black people in general.
I'm not convinced that the Black and White Minstrels intended to ridicule anyone. I think they set out to do entertaining singing and dancing routines, and were incredibly tactless in imitating the Al Jol more…
I find that some of the wackiest and funniest people to be around always seem to be foreigners, specifically those from European countries that are small or the ones no one has heard of before. more…
Kinda convoluted, but I found this blog through an old post you'd written on Thorntree about getting a visa to Myanmar as a journalist. I'm sad to report that my photoblog was considered 77% written by a man (yes, seven percent manlier than you), and my travelogues 64% written by a man. Don't know what it's based on, considering my frequent notes o more…
Interesting, my Berlin cocoon is protecting me from all the Irish doom and gloom. Heading back for a weekend in February, can't wait to be all smug the my previously high-earning mates about my job security over here! more…
Yep - my sister is getting married in Thailand so I'll be there for about a week. Then I'm going to go spend a couple of weeks in Cambodia. After that I'm flying into Australia to see if I can't raise the money to buy myself a beach bar :) more…
Interesting that the announcement about the oil was only made in 2005. There were oil companies having a sneaky look at that even before UNTAC got there. more…
Yeah, the entry above kind of made it look like it was an idea I played around with for five minutes before dumping but that's more of a safety clause in case I don't pull it off :) Now that I'm back in rainy Ireland I'm giving it serious thought. It's really not big money anyway, a few months work should do it! more…
I think you should go for it - I'm sure if you applied the singlemindedness that brought you to Burma and Cambodia to finding the money, you'd manage it in no time. :) more…
