I love reading about people's experiences abroad, having had my own. Anything to satisfy my wanderlust, and love of books, and your blog does both! I can't wait to read more. Enjoy the festival. I did read "Room" by the way and posted a review of it on my blog in early January. It was good, but I was a little disappointed by the back half.Melissa Romohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911974738909587573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-848620772908416660.post-23322664919741197372011-02-23T21:05:57.208+08:002011-02-23T21:05:57.208+08:00Sounds like a wonderful event to be involved in.
