These are awesome I've been trying to figure out which ship to go on this has really helped. THank you very much for sharing - this is GREAT!

wow I like the guest book real nice, and the sites awesome Check out mine as well...

Nice to see all your notes of your walks. Surprising to know you missed out Bhutan. It is a walkers paradise with pristine beauty and crisp clear fresh air. visit my website for details www.bbaralynka.com

In light of the centennial of Roald Amundsen's expedition to the South Pole, we've been reminiscing about our own trip to Antarctica back in 1998. We traveled on a little expedition ship called the "Disko," since foundered off the coast of Greenland, and visited a number of the same places you did. Thanks for the memories and the photos.

What a beautiful blog. I would love to know each time the month you were there and whether to wrap up warm or not.
Stunning pictures.

May you continue your amazing adventures,

Did the last 120 KM with my wife in 2009 and am grateful for the wonderful pics and descriptions. I can smell the eucalyptus, and uh, other things as well. Hope to do the le Puy route to santiago in 2013, and have studied your notes on your other routes as well.
Thank you for sharing. May you have many paths ahead. Might want to look at the Great Glen Way in Scotland.

Buen Camino!

Fantastic web site and walk diary. You put my attempt (at web and walks) to shame, but I now have something to aim towards. I have/will read your walk info with purpose - to do similar walks my self. Your photo record is wonderful. Congratulations. Keep it up

Thanks for sharing your adventures! Fabulous photos! Am about to do the same trek - was wondering who you used to do the trek with! Have been looking at Chimu and some other trekking agencies! Would you mind sharing the info?

I am thoroughly enjoying your website, although sometimes it has difficulty loading. You certainly have had amazing travels.

You need to do some hiking in the US and Canada!!

We did this bit some 25 years ago the start of a longer trip. It was fantastic and we have some lovely photographs to look back on. The only down side, New-Year with only H2O!!

Inspired by your pictures and description to visit the Cordillera Blanca. Would you tell me how you found Eliab your cook on the Santa Cruz trek and how you found reliable taxis in the area?

Thanks for sharing this information and your fabulous photographs; inspirational and functional for us long-distance walking enthusiasts! Hooked onto your site while starting to plan 1,400 km trek in Japan - 88 Temple Pilgrimage (Shikoku). FYI, I encourage you to check out the Trans Canada Trail - one day (I hope in my lifetime) you will be able to walk across this vast interesting diverse country on one trail with campsites, huts and quaint accomodations throughout.

Found your blog looking for more information about Queñua bark... and got stuck! I made the Santa Cruz trek in July 1981, so reading about that wonderful time in my life brought back incredible memories. There were no digital cameras then, and I took slides and black and white photos with my Hasselblad.
Thank you for your wonderful photos and your great writing.

Hello! I read your blog about your trip to Dalat, Vietnam and its very interesting and informative.

We are planning to visit Vietnam and wanted to trek in Dalat as well this year.

Would you be so kind to send me the contact details of your hotel or agent who organized your trip to Dalat?

Moreover, for this 2day trek trip how many days should we allot including our trips back and forth Ho Chi Minh.

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Wow...beautiful photos and wonderful detail to your trek. Thank you so much, I think this is our #1 priority for our trip in January. Time to make some reservations in the refugios...glad to hear they also serve cerveza!

Thank you so much for this absolute gem of a site. What a relief to stumble across a site that was actually helpful and insightful when trying to learn a little more in depth information about the walk, distances people actually manage to hike daily and accommodation available on or near the walk. It looks so good I am now thinking of joining my husband on the walk. Thank you!

Stumbled across the link to your blog whilst researching hiking around Canberra. I'm returning home to Australia after 3 1/2 years in the UK and am planning on some longer hikes now that my kids are grown and I've got more spare time.

I've loved reading your Great South Coast Walk as it provides great inspiration for future walking options. I look forward to reading about the rest of your trips.

Don.

I am planning a couple of South Island tramps this coming summer so finding your website was timely. Your photos are fabulous.
