Defined by Flight – a Mini Life Update.
I feel like I have been defined by flight. By Qantas. That Platinum card (actually it’s down to Gold now). I’ve been traveling for work since 2005. I left my job in the lab on a Wednesday morning and flew to Singapore that afternoon for sales training. And I haven’t really stopped flying since. To…

The Long Haul
Just a quick post to say that I’m still alive. I was travelling for the last two weeks – I went to Cambridge (UK) for work for a little over a week, then London on the weekend and Amsterdam for a couple of days. London and Amsterdam were short holidays and I had a…

Homeward bound.
It’s been a good trip to Sydney. Some traffic issues at times (me taking wrong turns) and some violent weather (I’m from Qld, so no worries there) but I got to catch up with some of my all-time favourite people and I had a very productive and pleasant 4 days of work. I’m sitting on…
