About me, I am 32 years old and I have recently returned to Melbourne. There was a time when I removed my birth year off facebook, I don’t know why, it just seemed to be in vogue at the time. I have just returned after 12 months living and working in Ha Noi and I hope to draw on this and my previous experiences in my writings.

I decided to write this “blog” because my recent two and half weeks travelling through Laos and Myanmar have left me with a deep desire for travel (a desire that is probably always there but sometimes lays dormant) and yet, I feel that I have come to a point in my life where travel is not enough. Which raises the burning question for me, the one that I wish to explore, how do you seduce time? How do you make her your lover rather than fighting against her? Can one achieve more with one’s life if one takes a loving approach to?

The primary purpose of my endeavours is therefore not just to travel but to learn, to continue on as a student of life, to build my technical expertise, to acquire wisdom, to create something meaningful and worthwhile with my time in this world – and beyond this, to do so through a love of life and time that allows me to somehow have a loosely defined ‘it all’.
