Music, Movies, and Books

Stevie Wonder (he came to me in Croatia) as well as the early years of Ray Charles.Always loved a nice bit of techno / minimal beats thought I'm a bit over the culture. Been loving BB King and Johnny Cash of late and I think that there is plenty left to discover. Doccos and informative viewing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many things... What I can think of now is the dry central Deserts springing to life after good rain and the changing of seasons out here. As a contrast I´ve seen the tallest trees (80-90m) in the southern hemisphere being cut down and burnt. The hollow stumps are so big you can have a 4 person tent inside.

I've seen 7 Wedge Tail Eagles around one Kangaroo and had a 3m python fall asleep on my shoulder. Oh yeah I've dug up and eaten several raw witchetty grubs.

Teach, Learn, Share

Love life in the Red Centre of Australia so if you have any questions I'll help you out. I'm also a mad computer geeker and party tweeker. If you have a broken computer bit or program I can fix it and I know how to do the robot (dance) so if your party needs a bit of life... I'm the robot man to invite :\ (Actual robot may not be so good)
