Just my two cents..

My parents tried their best to expose me to my birth culture growing up. I think they knew that there would be some value to me understanding a culture I would always be associated with. It wasn't forced or anything, but I'm really thankful for it. I'm no expert by any means but I like having a base knowledge of what people assume is my cultural background.

Hey man, really great you doing this AMA.

This past year I traveled to Korea for the first time where I found my Birth Mother. It was an incredible feeling to be surround by people who looked like me.

In the end I found her despite incredibly slim odds. Instantly I saw myself in her and I felt a connection immediately. I haven't met them but I apparently have half siblings as well. That whole "its in the blood" saying has always got to me, but this made me understand in some small way what its like to feel that indescribable connection..

Hey Neil, glad to see you here. Long time fan! One thing I want to quickly mention is something you shared once about following through when telling people you'll do something. Since hearing that Ive really taken it on board and have seen a lot of positivity come from making sure I follow through on promises and even small things I tell people I'll do.

My question comes from the first book that introduced me to your writing, Emergency. I've recommended it to a lot of friends who talk about how fucked we'd be if shit ever hit the fan.

I was wondering if you're still doing any training or are keeping up with what you learned during those years?

Also.. Wanted to say thanks again for recommending Cave Tubing in NZ to me. Was every bit as awesome as you said and can't wait to go back some day.

Gadamn! Any possibility Neil wants to give one more clue? I'm east coast, but will be out there looking next spring when I'm in the area.

I forgot to ask if anyone ever found that cache you hid!?
