Hi Steph, this Kristin's cousin Debbie. I wanted to say thank you for being such a good travel partner for Kristin. You sound like a truly wonderful, helpful,giving person, and friend. I'm glad you were the one with her. I hope the rest of your stay in Istanbul is fun and safe. Your adventures sounded so amazing. You must be exhausted! Hope to meet you someday soon. Love Debbie and Mike

Steph and Kristian, So glad you are having great adventures. We love keeping up with you through the blog and pictures. Be safe, Tim and Cindy

We think of you so often and I was thrilled to get this news of your travels. You certainly will have stories to tell and we'd love to hear them all! Loved the pics of the meal dishes and food market and of course the kids in Africa. Happy travels and memories.

Hey Steph! Glad to have gotten your e-mail ... your blog entry today made me tear up! It's so sad that we have "everything" and still aren't happy but these poor kids have nothing and are happy! I'm sure they appreciate everything you do for them! Take care! O
