[close] Hi, my name is Valerie Van Ballaer. I'm a freelance graphic & web designer, illustrator & writer, marathon runner, born in Belgium, raised in Thailand. I've recently published 3 illustrated travel guides for kids called The Travel Adventures of George and Paolo, on Italy, Thailand and Hong Kong, and I'm currently selling the books on Etsy (both hard-copies and eBooks). I'd love to get some feedback from you guys about my books and the idea of illustrated travel guides for kids.

[close] Your thoughts on books based in or around the kingdom of Thailand - be they fiction or non-fiction.

[close] From the far east, I would like to begin reading the best-sellers and classics. I'm personally interested in Travel books and works written by Expats as well, but the focus I'd like to keep will be on those works often passed over, those translated for better or worse. We may foray into the Mid-East and South-East if there is interest on my part (or yours). It will be hard to keep me up on this, but I will start in the new year, and anyone who wants to join my exploration is more than welcome.
