		<description>Hi Henry,

Thanks for your comment and congratulations with the fantastic trips you organise. It started me dreaming directly :-)

Regarding your point about enrichment. I did see the functionality for enrichment/discussion but noticed that people were merely using it for &quot;counting them in&quot;. Which in itself is good, however they could also use this space to enrich the trips. There is one place where it took place, however it was the same guy that posted the trip that kept improving it (Cycle all 50 states). 

Don&#039;t get me wrong, I think your initiative is fantastic, however I my work is to help companies getting communities more vibrant and if you were to hire me, I would try to get the enrichment process more vibrant. That would probably increase the quality of the trips and create a greater feeling of ownership with the people involved.

I wish you luck and fun with your company.

		<description>Hi Jaap, 

Thanks for the review of the product which I received on Google Alert.  I do want to point out, that the members are invited to enrich each other tour. 

After a description of the tour there is room specifically designed for a  discussion for anyone interested in the tour or for that matter any comment pertaining to the tour. So for example some areas of the world have logistical challenges where the designer of the tour may not be aware of. Others come on the site and discuss how to go about changing of resolving the problem.  But essentially the discussion wall is there for any discussion on the subject.</description>
