Hi Brendan and Emma,
so loving following your fantastic journey across China. Just looking at all the quirks of your daily routines, the enormous determination you portray with each step towards the momentous half way stage – and the picture of you heading into the Shaanxi hills is giving me such a deep reminder of my own journey through China along the Wall. You are on such a great trail of life – so worthwhile, so unforgettable, so inspiring, so human and I can’t help but thank you so much for sharing your adventure with such openness, honesty, humility and the willingness to shine.
Tread eagerly and good luck!

No need to stop posting just because you had to take your own picture Brendan!
In a previous post you said it was safer camping out near the wall than back here in Aus. In what way do you think it’s safer camping there? Please explain…..
Hi there,
I am loving being able to read all your stories. Can’t get the kids to bed quick enough! I think Nathan’s words say it all. You are both really living. So thanks for us all that you are sharing too.
So wierd the other night Emma to be texting you. You on the wall and me here in Canberra. Technology is amazing. I also want to see more pictures with your faces and I agree with your Mum. I love the day to day stuff. Gosh you are both so amazing.. oh and Brendan looks great first thing in the morning! Not scary at all. You must be the quickest at whipping up a camp site, especially in those nasty below temps. What’s the funniest thing that has happened?
I had a glorious shower for you both today. Even in my world with small kids they are a luxury. However I appreciate them even more for you now.
Loved the article in the herald.
