Australian Mobile Broadband
Australian Mobile Broadband Can you get a decent amount of downloads, with decent coverage, without taking out a second mortgage? That’s the golden question for anyone traveling in Australia. We don’t necessarily have plans to go location independent right now, but I was listening to an RV podcast last week and one question […]
Education vs Embarrassment
I remember the first time I went overseas, specifically to the US. I was 7 years old (and with my family, obviously) We went into a restaurant – I’m not sure which one, but I know it was sit down, booth style. Probably your run of the mill chain restaurant. I was walking in […]

Centenary Place Park – Fortitude Valley
As a city worker for years now, I like to take any opportunity I can to get into Brisbane’s parks and relax in my lunch breaks. Centenary Place was a park that I had been past many times, but never actually been to! So I took the opportunity to go for a little walk one day. […]
Small Planes
Small Planes Yesterday I went in the smallest plane I’ve ever been in (at least in my memory – could have been in smaller as a kid & not know it). It was a Dash 8 propellor plane on a short Qantas flight. The main thing I noticed was the annoying person next […]
