Doug — your story about my small resort in Fiji is really wonderful! You’ve captured the feel of “Heaven” just perfectly and I REALLY appreciate that! Now hurry back, okay??

Cheers, Collin

Wonderful story about Giraffe Manor! I remember you telling me this story years ago, but I couldn’t remember the specifics when in Nairobi, so I missed-out on my ‘kiss’ with a Giraffe. It is so nice to see this story now in print.
Can’t wait for the book!

Hi Doug,
Keep working on your book! Like Kathy Williams, I look forward to reading more of your adventure stories when it’s published.
You have an adventurer’s heart and a writer’s mind; what a great combination!

A pleasure to read and wonderful insights- I will be sending on the giraffe story to a friend who would loved to have been on the receiving end of that giraffe’s kiss. Keep writing!

Fascinating reading Doug, enjoyed both stories immensely. Being kissed by a giraffe is now on my bucket list.
Keep up the great work! Let me know when the book comes out.

Hey Doug

I read the top story about travelling. I felt each of your paragraphs was both an intro and a conclusion. There was much between the lines that I think you could flesh out. Each paragraph left the reader, well me anyway, wondering what brought you to the conclusion. It’s the specifics I think will make for interesting stories in themselves.

Keep writing.

Amazing stories! I really liked your essay on What Il Have Learned from My Travels. Our travels have not been as extensive as yours but I totally agree with you. It is not about the destination — its is about the journey and being exposed to other cultures and their beliefs. Thats what makes us better citizens of the world.

Doug,
you write with such humour and wit; the story of Giraffe Manor has me ready to fly to Africa for no other reason.

Looking forward to more of your wonderful writing..
