    Traveling 101 (or) Why I am not in India!

    Dear 'Spinning Compass' supporters,

    I hope your spring is going beautifully!!!  I posted an update on my blog today, which answers many questions that have been coming up from friends and supporters. I will be posting new pictures of travelers/tourists from Jerusalem on the 'Spinning Compass' blog in the next two weeks & will notify all of you when they go up. I hope you will take a moment & read my blog update, it is kinda funny :)

    I have had a few requests from people outside of the Kickstarter deadline whom would like to support the project. If anyone would like to do this, there are a couple of ways to do so. 

    1. You can purchase a print from me, just email me @ linkaaodom@gmail.com for a pricelist & instructions.

    2. You can donate money using PayPal to: linka@dametravel.com

    I have received many responses regarding print choices. However, there is still a big chunk of people that have not responded.  I am waiting for most of you to reply, before I begin the ordering/shipping process.  If I order at the same time for everyone, it saves a lot of time & money.

    You will receive notification once the rewards have shipped.

    Thank you for your continued interest & support!

    Much love, Linka

        Linka, did you get my return message? With the print I had chosen? I believe it did go thru, I only ask because the form for some reason was showing up digitally doubled and blurry, if you know what I'm saying. But it did take my information, and said message sent, so I felt fairly confident it was. But still, better safe than sorry, so I thought I would ask. Have fun and be careful in Jerusalem. Best of luck to you, Mary
