@shionge — Thank you! I was lucky to be able to go traveling, I realize that. It’s been fun blogging about it!

@Linguist-in-Waiting — It’s always good to come back as well. I wouldn’t like to live on the road forever… Three months 1\2 was plenty.

@Seraphine — Thank you! I thought collecting license plates would be fun I loved my hot shower

@kyh — Merci! It does provide another view of the world, which is mostly why I enjoy traveling.

@Bluefish — Thank you! It depends where you backpack, but Central and South America is very affordable, cheaper than in Canada.

@barbara — Merci Barbara! By the way, I hope we can meet sometimes when I will be in France. I’ll be in touch!

@Jennie — It was A LOT of kilometers… my Ipod saved my life on these long bus rides!

@bumanguesa — Gracias, and nice to meet you!

@Tulsa Gentleman — Thank you! And the food posts are coming, just for you I felt the same with coconut water the first few times. It does take a few sips to get used to, but then it tastes yummy.

Hello, I’m back. I just want you to know that I ran across some Mexican juice drinks in the Walmart, the brand is Goya and very good. One of the flavors was “Coconut Water” and the label says it is 80% coconut milk with some ground coconut pulp, and a little sugar. Of course after your post about drinking coconut I had to try it. I have to say that my first sip was meh, then it began to taste really good. By the time I finished the can I wanted another. Your influence is felt around the world, even in Oklahoma.

I hope you had a very happy birthday and a nice homecoming. Keep posting. I am still waiting for your food Photos.

Blessings from Tulsa

Joyeux anniversaire avec quelques jours d’avance !
You know, you & Feng have experienced something that maybe you will not experience again for awhile.Three months on the road. It’s already a chapter in your lives.

Look ahead; things will work themselves out finding jobs and all. Just one day at a time, like on the road. And your citizenship will be coming.

I’ll see you soon on the blogs.
Take it easy, chère amie.

Bises

Happy birthday! I’m glad that you two had an amazing time in Central and South America. I wish I can backpack through Europe but it’s way too expensive. Maybe it’s doable in Asia. Let me know about your immigration process

Oh wow I wish to be in your shoes, travelling around the whole continent in 100 days! The trip must have provided you a different insight into the world that we all live in and share.

Joyeux anniversaire in advance, Zhu!

it’s funny you took photos of license plates!
only a gifted photographer/artist would do that.
you’ll find your dream job. i know i. you have too much to offer for an employer to ignore.
enjoy your shower. cuddle in the back of the theatre and watch that movie you want to see.
spring is just around the corner, so you’ll be out in beautiful weather again by the time the movie ends.
welcome home.

You’re back! I was wondering when you’d be back. The weather is nice now here, so I suppose it’s good timing.

I can relate with your sentiments. As much as I want to travel lots, I cannot imagine doing what you did, a full three months of travel. I need my routine. I need my schedule. I need my rhythm. And if it isn’t there, I would crash and burn. Travel for me is not a lifestyle, it’s simply a distraction.

By the way, I like your license plates collection!

*CLAP* x 3 times!!! Well done Zhu for ‘bringing’ out on a three months’ stint compressed in your colourful blog.

I wish I can take three months off work to travel the world There’s so much to see, explore & experience and you did so well.

Thanks for the wonderful journey, hope you get your dream job soon and most importantly.…to be a Canadian soon

Happy Birthday in advance on 21 March 2009 — we are both March babies
