I'm a travel writer - who travels, and then writes about it. Now in Sydney after five years in NYC acting, a year bumming around Southeast Asia as a toy boy and dive resort "shop girl", a season as a nanny on a snowboard, two years leading tours around Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, China & India, and now settled in to this crazy-fun city filled with crazy-good-looking people that crazily speak English(ish). Days tend to start with dlisted.com, noon at the David Jones food hall, wind up at McGym (Fitness First), and digress into "a vodka tonic & a good time" if I can help it.
Champagne and oysters, crap movies on the couch, Bodypump & Abdolates (its a good hurt), happy hour(s) at my local, the beach, semi-naked Australians, snowboarding

Summer is here! Time for a holiday, but where to go in this great, big, gay world? Bali? No — if I want to run into my neighbour, I'll go to the café down the street. South Beach? Everyone goes there, too. How about somewhere nobody you know has gone?

Underwear. It's that stuff that leaves a little, but not a lot, to the imagination. Black, or white. Lace or string. Personally, I've never been a fan. I mean, really, what is the point? It's just something else to take off, right? Wrong.
