First morning and I woke up around 5.45
which kind of made me happy, maybe I´ll be able to go to Tai Chi
every morning, but I didn´t want to go today, so I just rolled

So this is what an
average ride has been like during my preparation for my upcoming

Buenos Aires sure was a head-spinning week or so. We watched a game of soccer in a crowd famous for being the most fanatical and passionate in the world; we attended a local birthday at probably the biggest house we’ve ever been inside (as a guest);... Read more >

For those who were scratching their heads and wondering why I was

After another 8
month sabbatical, sitting down to write is like sex with a girlfriend
you haven't seen in a long time. You know its good, and you really

The boys night in Melbourne relocated to Asia for nearly a week. It was an inauspicious sign for bank balances, livers, and the price of grain. A trip overseas had been discussed ad nauseam and it took one of us getting married to see it happen. I ... Read more >

So we left Fiji feeling pretty damn relaxed. We had caught up on some sleep, gotten some tan and had some Awesome Fun Times, and met some cool people along the ways. Approximately 23 hours of flights and transfers had us landing in Vancouver roughly ... Read more >

I need a holiday after all this talk
about commitment, and marriage and every other aspect of human
interactions that is scarier than watching 'Wolf Creek'. Its open
wallet season and not one, not two, but three interstate trips are

There is a sea of pale straw larger-than-life cowboy hats that only come out on occasions such as this. We purchase an umbrella from one of the dudes walking around which later inspires the occasional beer bottle caps to be thrown at us throughout the ... Read more >
