place like home

Over the long weekend we took the birthday boy back to 'our' house in Bermagui where we now counted our fourth year. This is a place of retreat and away from everything crazy. It was the first time in almost a year that I put my computer away for more than a day.

The man of the moment got what he wanted - 4WDing, fishing, a bit of archery, good food, great company and even home made birthday cake. Coming back from this place is never easy, but it's always nice to know it won't be long til next time.

other side of earth

Last weekend we took the new car for a spin to Anna Bay. Away from the city - the fake tans, pretend lives and screaming streets. It's the best weekend I think I've had in Sydney - and that's saying a lot considering I've been here for years now. We hung out by the fire, listened to music, cooked the most amazing food (believe it or not, but a 2 hour slow cook pot with veggies, white wine and chicken was da bomb) slept under the stars and went for a morning swim.

Life.

Also can't stop listening to dubstep. Problem.

Heart of Africa

I'm slightly lost in Africa, and have celebrated Christmas and New Years Eve with everyone that I love the most. Slowly finding my feet again and settling in to this colourful madness, I am loving this sense of freedom, joy and complete bliss. Blazing sunsets, gentle faces, the sweet smell of Brandy, an ocean of ducks, midnightly mischief, wine, wine and more wine, scorching sun, never ending mountain ranges, family time and the intoxicating rhythm of the African drum.

May it never end.
