It ends where it all began.

THAILAND | Tuesday, 31 Mar 2015 | Views [855]

A holiday isn't really over until you are back on home soil, but Bangkok is as close to home as it gets, geographically and sentimentally. It is very familiar territory and a great place to unwind and transition back into the Broome heat of my real home ... Read more >

The sins beneath the surface.

UNITED ARAB EMIRATES | Friday, 27 Mar 2015 | Views [679]

Abu Dhabi.......Perhaps that is all I should say. It is almost all I can say, because my memory and camera were rendered redundant the entire time. 'Abu Dhabi' was something that was said a lot, as a justification for whatever crazy shit was going on ... Read more >

….but my liver would strongly disagree!

IRELAND | Thursday, 26 Mar 2015 | Views [734]

The next morning I woke up feeling so dastardly that Laura said I was looking very Irish, ie. Green. Half a slice of toast made me go white for awhile and had I doused myself in fake tan like all the pikie women in Ireland did, I'd be a flesh version ... Read more >

I may have left the best for last....

UNITED KINGDOM | Wednesday, 25 Mar 2015 | Views [768]

Let me tell you about the luck of the Irish. They are incredibly lucky to live in such a beautiful country. They are lucky that they are all incredibly friendly people. They are lucky their famously cold weather played nice for the entire time or I could ... Read more >

A place that deserves to be more famous than it is.

UNITED KINGDOM | Thursday, 12 Mar 2015 | Views [889]

Ask any Australian about Jersey and the only thing they can think of is the cows. The small island is part of the UK, but just off the edge of France with French road names, is full of Polish people and with Parishes (or countys) like St. Johns, St. ... Read more >

Only music could describe such ecstacy.

FRANCE | Wednesday, 18 Feb 2015 | Views [840]

To be in Paris, the city of Love, on Valentines Day is the sort of smaltz that Hallmark wish they could encapsulate in some consumable way. I imagine a significant amount of romancing happens on your average day for the city to have such an appelation, ... Read more >

No wonder guys never ask for directions

INDONESIA | Monday, 26 Jan 2015 | Views [700]

PART 1: On the plane. Who ever gets an emergency exit row all to themselves? I've got more space on this plane than I had in my Bangkok hotel room. And this is a tiger flight, infamous for turning coach into a daisy-chain with 3 inches of padding separating ... Read more >

So happy to just sit, drink and write.

THAILAND | Thursday, 22 Jan 2015 | Views [683] | Comments [2]

It's day three in Bangkok and I must confess that this journal is happening largely due to my love of writing more than anything else. I haven't done anything worthy of a journal in itself, but there is always plenty to write about in a place like Bangkok.... Read more >

Around the country in 80 beers.

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 15 Oct 2013 | Views [1196]

Often times life is just so routine that writing a journal is like trying to describe honey to a bee. Then there is a whirlwind of action and you feel like you should be writing a movie script rather than a travel blog. So, the last few months haven't ... Read more >

Falling for Hobarts freezing charm

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 6 May 2013 | Views [899]

I think I'm old enough to 'man up' now. Put down the stout, drink a nice big glass of cement and toughen the fuck up! I'm almost old enough for a seniors card yet cold climates, commitment and cucumbers still frighten me. My wardrobe has expanded enough ... Read more >

A week of three months worth

AUSTRALIA | Thursday, 7 Mar 2013 | Views [972]

We all know that certain things are contagious. Yawn and you'll see everyone in the room do likewise before long. Sneeze with the flu in an elevator and you'll halve your office's workforce for the week. SDbjijberf saajsdbkj......Sorry, that was a battle ... Read more >

Falling in love, then fleeing.

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 28 Jan 2013 | Views [1249]

Ahhhh, Fremantle. The place where hippie hang out meets playground of the mining rich. A suburb who's every individual aspect is retained as the very definition of conurbation. (Surely I must win something for being able to use that word in a sentence?) ... Read more >

2012 slips through the fingers

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 11 Nov 2012 | Views [1435]

And Melbourne is the winner of the current location sweepstakes. As will be revealed in a story recreated from failing memory and an alcohol induced reduction of brain capacity, it has been an interesting ride leading to here. And just to confuse the ... Read more >

Caught up in the pass-through

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 29 Apr 2012 | Views [1545]

Broome has never looked so appealing. When viewed from 3,000kms away, it seems very much like the quintessential oasis in the desert. The constant sunshine, palm trees swaying in the gentle breeze, time slowing down like ... Read more >

If only I ended every day in a brewery.

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 29 Jan 2012 | Views [1503] | Comments [2]

The grass always seems greener; once you've eaten it. Since arriving in Melbourne, I look back on the adventure with more sadness than relief. A week ago I was nearly incapacitated with regret for not having a normal holiday ... Read more >

Fine-tuning my assault on hills.

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 9 Jan 2012 | Views [1861]

Eeyore would say it was the surging traffic, or his own smell that had woken him up. This positive power trooper will say that it was the excitement of another day on the road. Oh, how I love a challenge and I knew there were loads of it ahead. I had ... Read more >

Beautiful beaches to Bondi blowouts.

AUSTRALIA | Thursday, 5 Jan 2012 | Views [1646]

With a day of nothing being planned, I exceeded all expectations by actually doing something. Nothing of real merit like promoting world peace, or even peace in the camp ground as there was too many loud kids running around ... Read more >

Holidaying like a 'normal' person

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 3 Jan 2012 | Views [1170]

5am is a unholy time to have to wake up, and the words I shared with the alarm clock would get a layman kicked out of any God-fearing Christian congregation. Such a spot could offer a sunrise beyond compare, but omnipresent ... Read more >

The tables turn sharper than a dirt track descent

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 1 Jan 2012 | Views [1225] | Comments [1]

It was Christmas morning and Santa had wisely given my tent a wide berth. I remembered how exciting it was as a kid to wake up at 330am and poke through the presents before the parents allowed you to scream them awake. I also remembered how much pain ... Read more >

Back roads are not always the best option

AUSTRALIA | Friday, 23 Dec 2011 | Views [2655]

Outside my tent I could hear the waves breaking so softly they sounded more like paper plates dropping, than fine China. I could see the sun shining through the clouds frequently enough to convince me Lady Luck was having a sleep in. Fearing she'd wake ... Read more >
