If there is anything I can help you with whilst you are staying in Malta I live in the south of the island and have a car so perhaps I could offer you a lift somewhere? Or act as your guide around a particular place? I know my way around Malta really well. Please contact me by email if there is anything I can help with. regards Pam Mason Hi Tony

AT&T is seeking inspirational people with disabilities who can help AT&T's mission to be the go-to telecommunications provider that is determined to understand and meet the needs of customers with disabilities. To do this AT&T is crafting an advertising campaign(print/online/industrial events) starting in January of 2012, that uses various quotes from athletes, performers and adventurers with disabilities, who push the boundaries of "can" and the overall brand message of "Rethink Possible." Our goal for the campaign and these quotes is to provide an inspirational message for people with disabilities, their families, caregivers and friends, while offering products and services geared toward the community for their everyday lives. The experiences and outlook on life you possess are a prime example of what AT&T is looking to convey in its message. Your quote "really, I want all the freedom I can get" demonstrates determination and the spirit of AT&T's tag line, "Rethink Possible", and would be a great asset to the campaign. If you would be interested in talking to us further about this project, please feel free to call me at 512.469.5136. Or you can email me at kehlers@sanderswingo.com - that works too! Thank you for your time. Karen E. Ehlers Sanders/Wingo 2222 Rio Grande St # C300 Austin, TX 78705-5151 I’m writing to you on behalf our client, AT&T.

Loved the book extracts online. Our travel tale is told at www.beatnikbeatles.com which has lots of video as well as text, so you can at least hear our bad singing! Sorry about that. Good luck with the continued book tour. Stay in touch. Sim Hey Tony,

I came home tonight after our meeting very inspired. Inspired to look you up. Inspired to see the world differently. Inspired to appreciate the senses I have, that you do not. I am so thankful you walked in to my restaurant. So thankful I sat you. So thankful I served you. So thankful I could share your story. I wish you all the best travels. Sincerely, Lindsay Hi Tony & Tatiana,

We meet them at the Piazza di Campidoglio and Palazzo Senatorio from where on the back of the building you have a great view of the Roman Forun, we where tacking pictures when we find Tony and Tatiana behind us and Tony ask me if I could describe what I was looking When I start describing all columns, stones and archeological pieces he knew all of them and gave us de description of all of them it was a moment where my eyes become his eyes and his mind become mine (hard to describe in words). I saw them living to a dead ending street and I ask them where they wanted to go He mention to the bus station and is this moment when I put my hand on his shoulder Tatiana was grabbing him from the waist. (The power of the filing when you touch someone was so strong, can you imagine it?). The told us how they meet and how they travel together we where so impress. After living them on the bus 64 on direction to the train terminal Lorena and Me star shaking of the impact Tony and Tatiana made in our life. We couldn't see any handicap on them and you gave me a lesson of life because the only handicap there was probably me because I was able to see but I didn't knew was I was watching? Best wishes to Tony and Tatiana a incredible people. Thank you Tony and Tatiana if you are back in to Toronto Canada any time in the future I want you two know you have here two friend that will be happy to welcome you in our home.

She has kept me updated on some of your adventures. Finally stumbled across your website here, I'm writing to you from my apartment in Bogotá. I'm teaching Mongrel English to the locals here. Do get in touch if you ever come to Colombia, you've got to try the coffee and fruit here. If I were deaf & blind I'd be the fattest b@stard ever. Look after yourself me old mucker and try not to leave your medication on the bus again. Cheers Mike G’day Tone,
