Any grey hairs yet? :) HAPPY BIRTHDAY! See you soon...
Hi Ramon, I've needed 2 weeks to read all the contents in your site and just in time to wish you a happy birthday. This is such a typical Dutch idea, it would be impossible for a belgian to create an idea like that because we don't have such a big mouth and aren't so extravert like you guys do. Hope you have a fine time partying through the end of year period. Cheers
Hi Tom
Yep, you are quite right. Thanks for those positive words. I agree with you. I believe what you say, but I had to warn Ramon that my cooking can improve. Hey, I'm alive, and it is not thanks to take outs! Can't afford them. But thanks anyway. You can read more about me as soon as birthday boy has a bit of time (hint to his hosts...) to update the missing reports. Sala kahle (means stay well in Zulu) Brian
City, Country: Durban, South Africa Sent: 10.21 AM - 12/20 2001 Hi Ramon
Greetings from a warm, sunny, and windy Cape Town. Yep, I'm on holiday in CT for two weeks or so. Sitting at an Internet Cafe, just to say a great huge HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you. I hope that Spain is treating you well, I'll read the reports when I get back to work next year. May you have a truly great day, and keep warm in that freezing part of the world. I hear the Spaniards are warm people, so you should be fine. Hamba kahle Brian

I have just checked out your website after hearing your interview on Arthur Blacks' Basic Black here in Canada and I'm not too sure you'll want to visit me! I live in the Arctic right now in a community of Inuit people... I think it would be interesting for you but you'll need to get a little better at handling the cold! But we have big parkas you can borrow... not to worry! Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas as well... I am sooo impressed at your idea... it's wonderful! Hope you visit Canada soon.

I'm always in the habit of trying to cheer people up, it's what I do. :) A bright side would be, yes, it seems you got to meet and become friends with a very fine person. How lucky! In that process I think you also gained 200 other friends that have hosted Ramon, and the thousands of us out here that follow his website. I hope that helps somewhat? Lovely to meet you Anna!! Your friend, MJ
City, Country: Madrid, España Sent: 11.20 AM - 12/17 2001 Saturday and Sunday felt a bit restless, and I wonder whether this is a common thing among your hosts. Maybe it was having you here for three days instead of just one, and of course the silly jokes about the Swedish helped somehow :-) The feeling is that of a loss, of having contacted with a nice person and seeing it go so soon; not only: having you here was somehow special (not because *you* are special, just in case this upsets you :-), but because you were our only guest; I guess that if I had something like letmehostyouforaday.com, guests would still be special but in a quite different way); and one can't help feeling that this necessarily can't be both ways, what with all the 2700 hosts you had/you're going to have. Now, this is getting complicated, when it is not. What I really want to say, not caring whether I seem selfish and self-centered, is that it was really nice having you here, and it is a pity that you have this funny 5-year project ahead of you (it's not a pity of course because it looks like an excellent project, but it is a pity for me-Anna Mayer, as opposed to me-the host), because this probably means that there are little chances of seeing you again, not to mention getting to grow a friendship, at least not soon. Besides, I probably should "compete" with other 2699 people :-D It may be an Italian thing, or an Annamayer thing, who knows, but I just get really upset when a relationship (such as a friendship in this case, I hope I don't have to point this out too often, just in case I get misunderstood!) doesn't get going the way I would like it to; and the best method I've found so far in my life to solve or at least smooth the "upsetting" (upsettment?) is to speak it out. I don't know whether the overall tone of this mail manages to convey what I'm feeling, or whether you see only bad or upset thoughts. I might have insisted on the upset ones, but only because I suppose the good&happy ones are obvious and taken for granted :-) Be good, enjoy yourself. Anna Mayer Name: donatella gazzoni City, Country: milan, italy Sent: 1.59 AM - 12/16 2001 hello ramon,I want to cheer you if you're still on line. I haven't read your latest reports, apart from the message below. also here in italy is freezing: we've had a sudden snow buffering.. I hope everything's going on well for you! ciao, donatella Name: Ramon Stoppelenburg City, Country: Madrid, Spain Sent: 12.20 PM - 12/15 2001 The latest news: The wave of cold and snow summons up the life of six people in Barcelona The weather is causing serious breaks, not only circulatory, in all Catalonia. Great part of Barcelona has been without light this late by a blackout that has affected, in addition, to the localities of Calldetenes, Manresa, Vic, Terrassa and Vilasar of Sea, among others, according to has informed sources into the Fecsa-cEndesa company. In addition, all the schools of Gerona are being evacuated as a result of the intense ones made snow-white falls in the zone, whereas the schools of a twenty of Catalan localities have had to bad weather close their doors due to. The temperatures will lower in Madrid, where it will be able to snow to any level, until the five degrees below cero, being able to also register winds of up to 90 kilometers per hour in zones of the mountain range which they are to 1,000-1,500 meters of altitude. One of the communities where the weather is feeling with special intensity is Catalonia. The snow has been lowered from this morning on the provinces of Gerona and Barcelona, including the coast and the Catalan capital, that has forced the Firemen to carry out the first exits and to evacuate several schools in the gerundenses regions.
Greeting from your cousins in Calgary. Hope you have a fun birthday and Merry Chritmas. Good luck with your adventures,see you in Calgary sometime in the next 5 years. Kathleen, Richard adn Dylan. Take care. RAMON: Hey uncle Richard and Aunt Kathleen logged in on my website. Really great! Greetings from cold Madrid. Name: Joao Paglione City, Country: New York City, New york Sent: 11.21 PM - 12/14 2001 Hey Ramon, I got a response out of you! Cool. Hope alles is gut and you are enjoying man Tapas. You really should check out www.donlorenzo.com, because he is an ex-patriote writer living in Spain and is a FASCINATING character, has traveled all over the world and been involved in many situations, he runs a small pensione in a small village, helps the gypsies harvest olives, makes pen and ink sketches, and has a small Brazilian daughter he concocted one hot night at Carneval in Rio de Janeiro! Man, I am so jealous you are in Spain, but it sucks that it is winter and cold there, too. Just like here in New York. Oh well, maybe you will get magically whisked away to the Caribbean. Doesn't sound bad as a next destination, does it? totzieds - jp
To Brian from Durban: Brain, I'm so glad Ramon made a report on his visit with you! I'm glad we got to get to visit with you some more. May I give you some advice? As long as you BELIEVE you are not a good cook, that will be the Truth, as it sounds like it is from Ramon's report. I had heard that "teaching" from several sources before I strated to apply it. Here's my story: I used to be very bad at remembering people's names. That's not an uncommon "failing," and I would frequently say "I'm not very good at remembering names," as is also very common. Well, one time shortly after I had again heard that wisdom about "what you believe is what you'll get" (or some version of that truth), I heard myself telling someone "I'm no good at remembering names" after I'd forgotten their name. I realized that I had a BELIEF that I was no good at remembering names. Now I don't know where the belief came from, but it sure was true. I decided, however, that it was "just a belief" and being "just a belief" I could change it. I started going around my house saying "I'm really good at remembering people's names." I'd say it in the mirror. I'd ham it up and strut around bragging about how good I was at remembering names. Of course it was a bold-faced lie at the time, but after only a few weeks of it, I started to say it to others. "I'm good at remembering names." I noticed that people would inevitably be surprised to hear me say that, because it is so common for people to say (obviously to believe also) the opposite. The outcome is that with very little effort, other than changing my belief, I AM now very good at remembering people's names!!!! (I didn't have to take any memory course or develop some esoteric neumonic(sp?) system for remembering names). So, my advice is to stop BELIEVING that you are a bad cook and stop SAYING it. I promise if you do, your cooking will improve without you needing to enroll in cooking school. If you WANT to be a good cook, then also start saying "I'm a good cook!!" or even "I'm a GREAT cook!", but just stopping believing you are a bad cook will lead to improvements (unless you WANT to be a bad cook, unless your identity and ego is somehow wrapped up in being and being known as a bad cook).
