After The Whitsundays I flew back home to Brisbane. Most of the crew had packed and left for Melbourne themselves with the relocation of the company. I quickly made plans that I too would head to Melbourne. In part, to meet up with those friends but also, to start exploring again. I would be flying … Continue reading Melbourne & St Kilda
Sailing around The Whitsunday Islands in early September 2008 ...
It had reached early September and the Queensland days were becoming warmer. It had been a tough few months at work and I was becoming increasingly concerned that I wasn't actually travelling any more. Aside from a few weekend trips to Surfers or Australia Zoo it had been months since I'd explored a new place. … Continue reading Fraser Island
This next installment has taken a little while. In the now, I've had to find a new place to live and let's not even talk about my working life. Let's just say I've had plenty of other things on my mind! This next post was always going to be a tricky one to put together … Continue reading Fear and Loathing in Brisvegas
Following on from my last post; I would stay in Byron for a few days before heading onward to Brisbane in the search for work. After the first nights antics on the town, most of us packed our bags and headed onward in different directions. This left me, another James and Lisa, on our own. … Continue reading A Magical Mystery Tour
The time had finally come to leave Manly. The past 3 months had taken their toll on my bank account (read empty!) and now I needed to find some work, otherwise I'd be heading home much earlier than originally planned. I realised Manly, especially as Summer was drawing to a close, wasn't the place I … Continue reading Waves of the East Coast
Aside from seeing the New Year in at Sydney Harbour I only really had one other touristy desire whilst I was in the Sydney area. That one thing was to visit The Blue Mountains. In typical fashion though, it turned out to be a bit of a last minute rush ... I delayed it right … Continue reading The Blue Mountains
I'll apologise now. This post has an awful lot of photographs. You see, The Manly Trap was sprung and it had well and truly caught me. Continuing on from the last post, I was feeling pretty low. I didn't know what to do next. 'Pretty low' might be an understatement. I missed my friends from … Continue reading The Manly Trap
I've been in a reflective mood recently. For fun, I decided back in January that I'd start posting a "Throwback Thursday" image on Instagram every week of my travels back in 2007/2008 in Australia. This mini project has finally given me the kick I need to share the images and stories I took at that … Continue reading Sydney & The Hunter Valley
Here it is, the final of my posts from 2015's trip to Thailand. Expect some posts from 2016's trip in a few months time, but I think it's likely I'm going to move off travelling for a while and post the results of the portrait shoots I've also been working on. Phuket ... Patong especially, … Continue reading Land of Smiles
