Day 54 in South East Asia – What A Perfect Day

August 8, 2017

Canggu, Bali, Indonesia; Today, all my prayers were answered and Karma and I reignited our passionate, if not slightly tumultuous relationship, firmly cementing it over cheap Bali Hai beers down by the beach and a delicious Indonesian meal. It was the start of a brand new week, it was time to put the past behind … More Day 54 in South East Asia – What A Perfect Day

Day 50 in South East Asia – Bali, I’m Back!

August 5, 2017

Somewhere between Seminyak and Canggu, Bali, Indonesia; I arrived in Bali late last night, the airport taxi queue was just as I remembered – long, busy, chaotic. The number of drivers waiting for pick-ups was absurd, and the queues for the cash machines even worse. I didn’t care so much though, in fact, I didn’t … More Day 50 in South East Asia – Bali, I’m Back!

Day 35 in South East Asia – Karma, You’re a Beautiful Bitch

July 20, 2017

Kampot and Kep and everywhere in between, Cambodia: They say bad luck comes in threes and that Karma plays a huge part in dishing out good and not so good things.

July 16, 2017

Siem Reap and Kampot, Cambodia: Before I write about my trip to Angkor Wat on day 30, I’m skipping forward, as I feel I need to share with you the struggles of the last few days, mainly because the taste is still bittersweet and the feelings evoked on days 31 and 32 are still raw; … More Days 31 and 32 in South East Asia – It’s Not Always Sunshine and Lollipops

When Creativity Wanes, Head For The Ocean

October 5, 2015

There may come a time in every Creative’s life when that spark of artistic talent slows down; when the creative flow wanes; when there’s nothing being produced except, well, nothingness. Becoming consumed and bogged-down with life, and monotony, and routine (yawn) sometimes voids a Creative of all inspiration – there’s no stimulus to give you … More When Creativity Wanes, Head For The Ocean

Seven Things I Neglected To Consider When Thinking About Dissing My Home Country

September 8, 2015

Last weekend I decided to take a whistle-stop tour through four counties in good old England-shire; Great Britain: my home; my country; the place I grew up. The reason? Well, seeing as the ‘big plan’ to return to Australia won’t be happening until next year I felt it only right to try and keep the … More Seven Things I Neglected To Consider When Thinking About Dissing My Home Country

I’m Not Just Looking For Love, I’m Looking For Someone Who Can Support Me.

August 4, 2015

I read a post on elitedaily.com the other day that was entitled: I’m Not Just Looking For Love, I’m Looking For Someone Who Can Keep Up. Not to discredit the author in any way (who am I to judge a published writer…?) but I didn’t think it was particularly well written and I didn’t think … More I’m Not Just Looking For Love, I’m Looking For Someone Who Can Support Me.
