Laura Tong

Biography

Welcome to Global Feel Good Company where life is always great because it's populated exclusively by fun, upbeat, feel good people. Started by us, Mark and Laura Tong to fling fun and feel good at the world until it sticks... and then fling some more! We're light, souffle types who bask and dally only in the fun side of life and have no idea why anyone would choose any other way to live! Both reared by licentious sea cucumbers, we've had 25 fabulous years together as genuine, bona fidae midgets without certificates to prove it. Credos may come and go (after all this is a consumer society) but despite being modern, impatient, no-attention-span kids, we have one that will never waver: people are great, really great the world over. And, we're irrefutably, immovably, unshakably sure about it because we get out there and experience them first hand around the world, and every time we do, all we find is a great bunch of people (and the odd nutter with stupid ears) who are just trying to get on, do their thing and help out by pulling on the saving-the-day-trousers for strangers where they can... not plotting to blow up the West, burgle us in our bed or even make life difficult. It's very refreshing! So, needless to say we take every opportunity to travel, work on fun projects and enjoy just how great people are and shout about it - hope to bump into you on one of our out and about tours, spreading fun and feel good around the world with Rugby, our gorgeous, greedy, silly Labrador.
