I spent my last day chilling out in the Mission District. It was refreshing to get out to somewhere without the tourists. I'm not entirely sure if you could call the Mission "da hood". But it reminded me of my favourite suburb in Brisbane - West ... Read more >

An interesting start to say the least - thanks to a few unexpected nuances. Despite the hurdles, I'm here! :)

I haven't slept much all week, a habit of mine before any big trip. Usually it's just the night before a trip... But this is a really big trip. I said my goodbyes, first to local friends, then more distant ones over the phone. It wasn't so much a goodbye ... Read more >
