GBF: How I missed my flight with a 3 hour layover

GBF: How I missed my flight with a 3 hour layover

THE GOOD I emerged from my meditation retreat feeling relaxed, calm, and focused. Before I began the retreat I had no idea where my skirt would take me next. I was considering a few very different options, unsure of which was best. After seven days of silence and meditation my head was much clearer and […]

Back in Sydney for a short while … I love this beautiful city!

Why Australia … again?

Why Australia … again?

A friend recently asked me – “If your favorite thing is to go where you have never been, then why are you going back to Australia?” As I pondered my growing list of places I must see before I die, I did wonder  – why do I have such a strong pull toward the land […]

Back down under

It has been close to two years since I said goodbye to the Sydney Harbour – it is great to be back down under!

Should I stay or should I go???

Should I stay or should I go???

For the past few months I have been completely conflicted as to what I would do once today were to finally come. Today is the day my return flight to San Francisco expires. My return ticket was only valid for one year from the date of my departure, November 12, 2007. It is so hard […]

My lovely Spence comes to town!

“My Spence, My Spence, My Lovely Lovely Spence!” is my remix of Fergie’s song “My Humps” I dedicated and often sing to my good friend Spencer in San Francisco. I was so happy when Spencer decided to fly to Sydney to visit me and to travel up the East Coast together. Spencer arrived this week […]

Party Like a Rock Star!

Party Like a Rock Star!

I spent five days straight partying like a rock star! The celebrations started last Friday night with my birthday party boat cruise. The theme of the party was “Full Moon” and everyone was wearing bright colors and fluorescent body paint. There were a hundred people on the boat, twenty of which were my housemates and […]

Dirty 30!!!

Dirty 30!!!

I celebrated my BIG 30 this past weekend! As my 30th birthday approached, I admit I had mixed emotions. I have heard the good and the bad about turning 30. The bad being when your metabolism slows down, and not being able to party like you use to. The good is beginning the best years […]

Local stuff…

Local stuff…

I worked a lot last week but did find some time to have some fun! I didn’t get to play at the beach as much as would have liked but Lauren and I had a fun day lounging on the rocks at the lady’s bath. We went for a swim in the ocean pool and […]

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

The past year was a very eventful and life changing for me. If someone had told me this time last year that I would be living in Australia I would have never believed it! As I celebrated the beginning of 2008, I had to pinch myself to make sure I was really in Sydney having […]
