One day in September

I was just visiting the Lonely Planet website, as you do if your as obsessed with travel as I...and i happened upon this article written by LP founder Tony Wheeler.

Update**** The link is a dumb ass... i tried three times on different computers, no luck, so if interested please just cut n paste:)

"http://www.lonelyplanet.com/tonywheeler/my_lists/gori_joe"

His Georgian experience was also part of my Georgian experience.....as i was travelling with him at the time. Not quite the day in september you assumed i meant hailing from Melbourne as i do, but significant non the less.

Be well.

The Good Life

Today im in a chipper mood...yes chipper! While this post may suggest that im smug, it is not the case....im just celebrating an unexpected good mood.....rare as they are.
I had champagne and strawberries for breakfast today. Why? Well, why not? It was great...the strawberries perfect, fresh and flavoured and juicy!
Yesterday i had a fantastic work day! Its true! The high point sitting in the sun at Williamstown with a glass of wine and dips catching up with ex work mates:) in the middle of a Friday afternoon. In the name of earning my dosh, i dub it networking!
The sun is shining, The weather getting better, the perfect time to begin road trip season i believe...all in all life is good for now!

Georgia on my mind....














Dear Georgians,

My thoughts are with you at this difficult time. I send wishes of hope that the fighting will end as soon as possible.
You are a country with much to offer....a country that stamps a unique individuality on each and every citizen.
I have shook your President's hand. Enjoyed your famous hospitality. Walked your streets. Stayed in your homes. Danced to your music. climbed your mountains. Been to your churches. Spoken to your people. Cab drivers. teenagers. Government officials. tour guides. bar tenders..... and i feel a connection with you in this time of hostility in your country.

We are with you.

Be well.
