The look is beautiful - simple, clean, something very crisp and calming about it that really appeals to me after some of the over-saturated and frenetic experience of too much surfing. And you seem really plugged into the digital blogging community. I am in awe of that! Your blog certainly lives up to the title, but my own personal preference is to have a clearer sense of focus to the content. Like I said, that's my preference.Cynthia J.

I've been listening, not talking.<br /><br />Looking at your site, I'd say we have similar tastes and preferences for clean, simple design, allowing our writing to speak for itself. <br /><br />Nice job!K.R.J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02849710074700984117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-32945298898152990802012-02-06T16:13:41.854+08:002012-02-06T16:13:41.854+08:00Your blog reflects your personality and talents wh...Your blog reflects your personality and talents which make for good reading :) I like that you take the time to comment on other blogs as if we're not here to support and encourage others on the journey, what's the point?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-21254612250584846662012-02-06T08:11:19.029+08:002012-02-06T08:11:19.029+08:00Thanks for your thoughts Akoss! :)Thanks for your thoughts Akoss! :)Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-45101482303026189962012-02-06T08:11:04.670+08:002012-02-06T08:11:04.670+08:00Thank you Rachel! :) And yes, the tiled look has t...Thank you Rachel! :) And yes, the tiled look has to go, if all this advice is anything to go by. heheTrishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-9056372509265545672012-02-06T05:13:51.754+08:002012-02-06T05:13:51.754+08:00I love your tags on the top and all the helpful li...I love your tags on the top and all the helpful links on the side bar.<br />Design wise, your blog is easy to read and not hard on the eyes.

I think that the headings colour matching the background is good, it unites all the blog together. Your trip around New Zealand sounds amazing and you tell it really well.

The repeating images on the sides are a bit distracting, but that's a very minor quibble (normally I wouldn't eve notice, but we're critiquing here)... and finally, I like that your personality comes through in your posts, something many blogs lack. All in all, your blog is reader-friendly, interesting and personable.Bubbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927345716112968689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-42562191692746965072012-02-03T13:20:05.969+08:002012-02-03T13:20:05.969+08:00HiYa!
