There are [9] stories from my trip: Home sauce


Living life like a re-run.

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 12 Jan 2015 | Views [855]

Around the country in 80 beers.

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 15 Oct 2013 | Views [1197]

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 >

Great beads of sweat and suffering

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 15 Nov 2011 | Views [1378]

Right about now I would trade most things to stop sweating. Not even just now, but say, the last 3 weeks when the 'build up' began. Sure awesome clouds have started to crowd the horizon like a watery caricature of Mars' ... Read more >

I'm still alive.

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 26 Jul 2011 | Views [1123] | Comments [1]
