This was nothing short of amazing, I have been glued to the computer for 3 days reading and drooling over the beautiful pictures. I like the others that have mentioned it, I really like your writing style. Its all in there, the good, the bad, the ugly and the confusion of a foreigner travelling desolate places. I am doing the preparations for a trip with my brother when he comes from the states and I am using your, and others stories for ride preparation and getting all the paperwork in order as I see you had to use it several times. Thanks for the time spent posting up on here, I have learned alot and will put it to good use on my upcoming trek. Great inspiration, both of you!!!!
