I always have believed that things happen for a reason, and from starting your blog so that you continue writing was just the beginning.<br />I can't tell you how much I've learned from you, how much I have enjoyed reading about the life you and Hanno have made for yourselves, and teaching us that a simpler life is truly possible. I wonder if you know just HOW MANY people you have truly inspired, and how many more because of your book?<br />I hope you and Hanno have a wonderful time in your travels, and I can't wait to hear about your adventures!<br />Take care. :)Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16141679376036235962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-57870977024986239602012-02-17T18:19:02.846+10:002012-02-17T18:19:02.846+10:00I want to wish you both a great journey Rhonda.

I've been saving this for you...Dearest Rhonda,<br /><br />I've been saving this for your book tour: it's your own words written on March 29th, 2009, nearly three years ago.<br /><br /><i>When I turned off my computer yesterday, the counter was on 999,934. This morning it had clicked over to 1,001,100. I can't quite believe it! When I first started my blog, in those early days when I wondered about a name, what to write about and if anyone would read, I never for one second, imagined that less than two years later (started May 2007) over a million visits would be registered.<br /><br />I started the blog because I'd written the beginnings of a book on simple living that had been rejected by Australian publishers. I'd earned a living as a writer for a long time and when I got those rejections, and I knew I wouldn't be writing the book, I started this blog so I could continue writing. </i>Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751315680374413649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-2830496398692236812012-02-17T16:21:42.196+10:002012-02-17T16:21:42.196+10:00Hi Rhonda,
