June 1, 2011 by 3 Comments
The feeling of whizzing past cars through a city on a bike is severely under-rated. I’ve always liked riding a bike, but it’s never been something I’ve pursued for very long – much like that drum kit you begged for as an eight year old, only for it to be collecting dust six months later when […]

Motivation is a funny thing – you can create it or destroy it with a single thought, and it can be the single most important factor in any successful venture.

May 29, 2011 by 16 Comments
The topic of All inclusive holiday packages is certainly one that divides a lot of travellers. Some people swear by their convenience and value for money, while others despise them for their so-called lack of culture and argue that they don’t help the local environment or economy of the place you are visiting. Up until a couple of months ago I’d never […]
Photo Of The Week – Melbourne Graffiti
May 27, 2011 by 9 Comments
One of the things I love most about Melbourne (and there’s a lot!) is the laneways weaving amongst it’s central business district – unless you knew they were there you could walk past every day and have no idea of the colourful street art just metres away. Melbourne graffiti really took off in the 70’s […]

The Best Of Las Vegas – Elvis Not Included
May 23, 2011 by 3 Comments
Money, food and sex – whatever the sin, Vegas has it in excessive quantities. A lot of people hate it, or think it’s tacky but for me, I love the place! Sure – it is tacky as hell, and if I stayed longer than a week I’d probably be tipped over the edge into alcoholism or wind up […]
Photo Of The Week – The Grand Canyon Illusion
May 20, 2011 by 7 Comments
The Grand Canyon is more than just a valley, that’s for sure. At its widest point it stretches over 16 miles wide, yet when you’re standing there looking out into its vast open crevice, it looks no more than a couple of hundred metres…crazy! I kept trying to train my eye to see that actually […]
